Moms in Labor: An Employment Lawyers Secrets To Protect Your Baby and Your Career (That HR Wont Tell You) [Kõva köide]

'Daphne Delvaux gives every mother the playbook she deserves. Just as Fair Play rebalanced the workload at home by teaching women how to advocate for themselves with their partners, this book empowers mothers to advocate for their rights at work with clarity, courage, and confidence. As a fellow attorney devoted to gender equity, Delvaux's work and my work are intertwined and complementary. Women will only be free when they master the art of advocacy at home and at work.' * Eve Rodsky, Author, Fair Play * 'It's quite simple: Every new mother needs this book. At a time when all you can think about is staying afloat, keeping your head (and your baby, and your job) above water, Daphne is here with a life raft saying hop in, friend, I've got you. And I do mean friend. Daphne isn't just a highly skilled attorney (the best of the best!). She is a story-telling visionary who makes you the main character, daring you to imagine a way forward in your career and giving you the tools you need to get there. We are all so susceptible to the myths of motherhood in America...that it's meant to be hard and that you have to earn the privilege of a comfortable existence. Daphne shows you how sustainable working motherhood is a human right. You deserve it. Here's how.' * Lauren Smith-Brody, Author and Founder of The Fifth Trimester * 'Moms in Labor is a lifeline. Daphne Delvaux's brilliant legal mind pulls back the curtain on how to approach motherhood in the workplace with a steady fierceness that every single mother needs. This book is real self-care and every pregnant and postpartum professional should have it in their hands before they walk into HR's office.' * Dr. Pooja Lakshmin, MD, Psychiatrist and Author of Real Self-Care * Motherhood is work that often happens behind closed doors, without applause, without acknowledgment. And that's where we need support the most. Integrating motherhood and work is an act of advocacy, and like any practice, you need a coach. Daphne is that coach. When I read her work, I felt an immediate connection. Ballet taught me that visibility matters. My presence on stage tells young dancers that they belong. Daphne does the same for mothers. She makes us visible. She equips us to ask for what we need, to set boundaries, to pursue our careers and our families with confidence and without apology. Her work is a movement. It's transformative. * Misty Copeland, American ballet dancer *
