Hey {{first_name}},
International Women’s Day is a moment to celebrate the incredible progress women have made across industries, but it’s also a reminder of the structural challenges that still shape women’s careers.
One of the most significant of those challenges is parental leave. For many women in tech and corporate roles, the transition into and out of leave can have a profound impact on career trajectory, leadership opportunities, and long-term retention.
In fact, nearly one-third of new parents leave their jobs within 18 months of returning from parental leave — a statistic that reflects a broader gap between policy and reality in many workplaces.
At Tech Ladies, we believe conversations like this are essential to building better workplaces for women. That’s why we’re hosting an upcoming session exploring what’s actually happening during these career transitions and what both employees and managers can do to support them.
Join us for a conversation with Allison Whalen, CEO of Parentaly, who will share insights from 3,000 women about what’s really driving career disruption around parental leave and the strategies companies and individuals can use to create smoother transitions.
Whether you’re planning for parental leave, supporting a teammate, or leading a team, this session will offer practical insight into one of the most pivotal moments in many women’s careers.
