The Working Parent Hub with Emma Mclean
This working parent thing is hard and we need to talk about it. I'm Emma, a mum of three and I'm on a mission to for society to have different conversations when it comes to how we support working parents. If you are a working parent, I want you to know that you are not alone and my wish is that you are able to plot a way through this working parent life that works for everyone.
Along with founding my professional development business in 2019, Works for Everyone, I am an impatient optimist when it comes to system change and like to use my voice to amplify the solutions we need. I launched my successful podcast “How to Smash the Motherhood Penalty” in 2023 where I talk to humans who are actively working to change the system that creates financial penalties that only mothers pay. And in 2024 I launched the first NZ Part Time Power List – to shine a light on those senior roles in NZ that are career building, not side stepping.
