Family Leave is GOOD FOR COMPANIES & SOCIETY

These Thursday TED Talks highlight how 

supporting families brings more equality & diversity to the workplace...


Parenting is Real Work:

What if we started treating parenting like the real work it is? Podcast host and CEO Angela Garbes details how working families have evolved -- and how companies haven't -- and gives insight into what parents really need from their colleagues and workplaces.


Paternity Leave for Dads benefits EVERYONE:

Paternity leave has many benefits for dads, their partners and their babies -- but did you know it also has surprising benefits for companies? This is what author Shu Matsuo Post learned from his seven transformative months of paternity leave -- and he says it can create more equal and diverse workplaces and even boost productivity.

7 Types of Rest

Have you ever tried to fix an ongoing lack of energy by getting more sleep — only to do so and still feel exhausted? 

If that’s you, here’s the secret: Sleep and rest are not the same thing, although many of us incorrectly confuse the two. We go through life thinking we’ve rested because we have gotten enough sleep — but in reality we are missing out on the other types of rest we desperately need. The result is a culture of high-achieving, high-producing, chronically tired and chronically burned-out individuals. We’re suffering from a rest deficit because we don’t understand the true power of rest. Rest should equal restoration in seven key areas of your life.

For this Thursday TED Talk we explore the 7 types of rest that every person needs:

1. Physical 

2. Mental 

3. Sensory 

4. Creative 

5. Emotional 

6. Social 

7. Spiritual
