You're probably feeling a little anxious, worried and excited all at the same time about taking parental leave. 

We've been there and we get it. Which is why we created this course just for you. 

So many women prepare for their baby that they forget to prepare their career for what's to come. It is such a monumental time in a women's career that you can no longer leave it to chance. In fact parental leave is one of the main contributors to the gender pay gap.

Hi, I'm Mary Beth

I'm a mom of 2 and an advocate for creating better workplaces for parents. I founded WRK/360 to bring scalable coaching, leadership development training and curated resources to organizations. 

I'm ambitious and have always valued growing my career, but like so many I smacked right into the Maternal Wall. My experience propelled me to dive deeper into maternal and caregiver bias, influence changes in the workplace culture, and advocate for a national paid leave policy. 

I'm an ICF Professional Certified Coach and Certified Fair Play Facilitator and I've coached hundreds of parents through the parental leave process.
