"Workparent offers practical and extremely valuable detailed advice on how to navigate each stage of being a working parent. As a working parent and as a human resources leader, I found myself nodding as I read through much of the wisdom Dowling lays out, from setting personal boundaries and owning your narrative to establishing your 'Village' as a way to ensure you have the support you need from before birth up through the teenage years. This book speaks to you as a whole person and encourages you to think of yourself as a whole person as well. It is only from this place that any of us can hope to live fulfilled, integrated personal and work lives." — Laila Tarraf, Chief People Officer, Allbirds
