About this listen

Embrace motherhood without compromising your career.

During attorney Daphne Delvaux’s first pregnancy, she learned first-hand how the system was set up to make it as difficult as possible for women to juggle a challenging career along with all the responsibilities of being a new mother.

The needlessly stressful (and often humiliating) experiences forced upon her by the juggling act of being an attorney and the exclusive source of nutrition for her new baby led her to draft a new maternity leave policy for her firm. Later in her career, she specialized in representing mothers, helping them navigate the competing demands of work and family life. Her goal was to protect their rights while ensuring their careers stayed on track.

With this invaluable guide for mothers in the workplace, Daphne outlines everything that new and expectant mothers need to understand about:

  • Pregnancy rights
  • Parental leave rights, and
  • Back-to-work rights

You’ll learn how to advocate for yourself, see through the sometimes purposely confusing corporate policies, and communicate effectively with your boss and Human Resources to ensure a smooth transition for both you and your employer.
