About Deborah Porter

Recent studies suggest that the state of parenthood and working parents has changed significantly and probably forever. DID YOU KNOW: 79% of working parents surveyed identify Support for Parents among benefit priorities in 2021 (Great Places to Work/Maven) 74% of employers name Supporting Working Parents as a top priority (Willis Towers Watson), but 39% of employers polled feel their efforts to support working parents are somewhat effective (Willis Towers Watson) 28% Greater chance, that working mothers will experience burnout than working fathers (Great Places to Work/Maven) It’s time to modernize support for working parents who often arrive at their place of employment, physically and mentally spent, while battling the guilt of not being the perfect parent or employee. I provide practical support and strategies in parenting that can lead to home/life/work balance and reduce burnout for parents. I help organizations, businesses and universities practice what Best Place to Work organizations do, Support Beyond Maternity Leave and support for the parent after the birth of the child. I support parents in managing the guilt of not being “perfect”, get clear on what matters now and have the confidence to build the village of support they need. I work/life balance strategies When companies help to minimize working parent burnout by expanding and increasing support, working parents are 20x more likely to stay, 12x more likely to adapt to change and 10x more likely to give extra.(Great Place to Work/Maven) For organizations, business and universities—>https://deborahporter.net/contact For mothers (working, SAHM, single) —> https://deborahporter.net
