How to Thrive as a Working Parent

Daisy Dowling, founder and CEO of Workparent, says that moms and
dads with jobs outside the home don't have to feel stressed or
guilty about trying to balance their professional and personal
lives. The key is to tease apart the different challenges -- from
coping with feelings of loss to managing practicalities -- and to
adopt strategies to better guide you through each. She points out
that while a lot of emphasis is placed on parental leave, and
especially new mothers, people at all stages of parenting need
practical, immediate, and effective solutions they can implement
themselves. Dowling is the author of the HBR article "A Working
Parent’s Survival Guide."
