You'll probably know Sian from Capital Breakfast where she wakes up the nation alongside Jordan North and Chris Stark, and you might also recognise her from ITV1's This Morning and Lorraine.But more recently, Sian became a mum to baby Ruby and in this episode, we chat about how becoming a mum has shifted her identity, what it was like returning to Capital Breakfast just three months after giving birth, and the shared parental leave setup she and her partner Jake have carved out.Sian also talks honestly about the pressure that exists to 'snap back' to her pre-baby body, and why she's happy just focusing on family and work rather than her abs (whoop!).Follow Sian on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sianwelbyBig thanks to the sponsor of this episode, Eurocamp, the UK's leading European outdoor holiday specialist.

The way Australians think about retirement is changing. More retirees are heading back to work, not just for financial reasons but because the emotional and mental shift after leaving a career is just as significant. CEO of the Australian Psychologist Society Dr Zena Burges told Dean Miller on 4BC Drive, "There's quite a lot of research that shows that work is good for your mental health because it gives you a sense of purpose, and it also links you with other people." "And if you're an older person in a workplace, often you take the role of a mentor of younger people, but older people also are quite capable of learning new skills and enjoy the challenge of doing so," Dr Burges continued.

Returning to work after maternity leave should be a transition, not a battle — but for many women, it's anything but smooth. In this episode of Mom's at Work, we explore the hidden struggles of working mothers re-entering the workplace, especially in hostile or unsupportive environments. From being sidelined or laid off to facing subtle (and not-so-subtle) biases, many mothers find that their roles have changed — not because of their abilities, but because of how they're perceived once they become mothers. And because too many workplaces still don't commit enough to figuring out how best to support them when they return. We speak with growth marketer Kendra Pennington, on how the judgment she felt at work since becoming a mother has led to “employment-inflicted trauma” that she carries with her today. And we speak with Bodacious founder Zoe Scaman on how she unearthed hundreds of other mothers' stories about being squeezed out of their companies, and the true cost of that to businesses. And we speak with both Kendra and sociologist and professor Jessica Calarco on the “supermom myth” and why some feel that label has become toxic in a period of disillusionment where many women feel “having it all” simply means “doing it all.” We're also joined by Amanda Carlson-Phillips, chief performance innovation officer at human performance and wellness company Exos, about the importance of having a “pro-recovery culture.” And Maven Clinic's Will Porteous gives us valuable insights into the parent burnout crisis and why employer support drops off at the most critical point in parent's journeys.

Welcome back to Voices of Your Village, and today I got to hang out with Lisa Myers. She's the inventor and founding mama of Ceres Chill, a breast milk storage company that replaces the 1970s bulky cooler technology that had been holding people back for decades. She got down to work inventing a solution to solve the problem simply, elegantly, and affordably. She filed for a patent and began working with an amazing team of friends to make Ceres Chill available to any parent in search of a better way to achieve their breastfeeding goals while continuing to be a great professional success. Now, Lisa dedicates herself and her company to innovating and advocating for pumping parents. Y 'all, I have the Ceres Chill, am a lover of the Ceres Chill, which is what led me to Lisa and am so jazzed to get to share this conversation with you because it's a genuinely a product that I wish I had known about for Sage and use so much for Mila.

Many factors influence the transition to parenthood, and most of those things are unexpected and unpredictable. No one “signs up for” a perinatal mental health condition, but it can seem to come out of nowhere and leave you blindsided–in addition to the normal adjustments that come with the addition of a new baby to the family. These PNMH conditions can impact every area of life significantly, including the return to work. Join me for a closer look at navigating this tricky transition. Show Highlights: New parents experience varied emotions about returning to work (“It's okay to want to return to work, and it's okay not to want to return to work!) The truth: If you return to work when you're not mentally well, the added stress of work will not help you get better. Your healthcare provider can do assessments of your perinatal mental health symptoms–just ASK! Planning ahead for the return to work can help you navigate the transition. My best tips for returning to work:  Try to navigate your return slowly, and don't take on big, new projects right away. Pace yourself and give yourself space to figure out your changing needs. Understand that your priorities might have shifted by having a new baby. (Things might not feel “normal” for a while.) Be intentional and think about how you'll balance work and home. Set boundaries and protect your energy. Prioritize your sleep! Resources: Please find resources in English and Spanish at Postpartum Support International, or by phone/text at 1-800-944-4773. There are many free resources, like online support groups, peer mentors, a specialist provider directory, and perinatal mental health training for therapists, physicians, nurses, doulas, and anyone who wants to better support people for whom they provide services.  You can also follow PSI on social media: Instagram, Facebook, and most other platforms Visit www.postpartum.net/professionals/certificate-trainings/ for information on the grief course.   Visit my website, www.wellmindperinatal.com, for more information, resources, and courses you can take today!
