Consulting

Support parents in their return to paid work, foster a healthy life balance and promote equity and inclusion.

Returning to paid work after the arrival of a baby is a significant challenge for parents. This period involves adapting to a new reality marked by considerable changes. The separation from their baby, resuming their professional role, and balancing multiple responsibilities can be complicated and trigger mixed emotions that are difficult to manage.

Offering support during this crucial stage is essential to help them find a new balance between their roles, maintain their mental well-being, and navigate this transition. This support not only benefits parents but also strengthens organizational culture and retains valuable talent.

What I Offer

Working together to design and implement a reintegration program for parents, providing the necessary support and conditions for them to resume their professional roles harmoniously while balancing family life.

The goal is to offer the necessary support to ease their reintegration, empower them, support them, and make them feel capable of excelling both at work and personally.

This process not only helps mitigate experienced stress but also increases their job satisfaction and success, improving retention, engagement, and loyalty to the organization.

Why

I can help

As a mother, I understand the challenges of resuming a professional role and balancing it with family life. My career in human resources has given me deep insights into the needs of companies. This combination of experiences provides me with the necessary tools to understand both client and user's needs, allowing me to find solutions that satisfy both parties.

What people say about me

I asked Lu to design and deliver a training on biases regarding maternity and paternity processes, including tips and advice for leaders to be more inclusive when accompanying employees in their processes. Lu proved to be an active listener to the current challenges we were facing and integrated them into the training, turning pain points into possibilities for improvement. The training was not only very relevant to our needs but also very interactive, engaging the audience in participation and reflection. I highly recommend her for this type of service and advice, Lu can speak from her expertise as a human resources professional but at the same time, she speaks from the heart in a frank, open and courageous way by sharing her experience as a mother who tries to reconcile in her day to day life.

"Thank you, Lu, for the support, shared work, and perspective. It's always good to have someone help define the path, and with Lu, it was great."

"Lu is an exceptional professional and an extraordinary person. Her human warmth, original ideas, responsibility, and eagerness to grow professionally and personally stand out."

"Lu is a fantastic coach, with a great ability to convey clear ideas and recommendations to help you find a new professional path."
