Interview with Adrienne Prentice / Parent Coach for Companies

HOSTED BY PAUL SULLIVAN

Adrienne Prentice loved being a lawyer and was working her way up within the general counsel's office. She went on parental leave when her first child was born - and returned to find her position had changed. She wasn't invited to certain meetings or assigned to cases that involved travel. The assumptions that were made bothered her deeply. That motivated her to create Keep Company, which works with law firms to put better caregiver policies in place. Listen to what workers can do to help themselves.

WHAT IS A LEAD DAD?
He is a dad who is fully engaged in raising his children, supporting his spouse or partner and working to keep the house together. More often than not, he has a more flexible work schedule than his spouse or partner. He is comfortable in his own skin. It’s a great role to have. But that’s not always the same as being comfortable telling his friends the extent of what a Lead Dad does at home. And perhaps because of that, he finds himself isolated at times – from other dads and certainly from stay-at-home moms.

ABOUT THE COMPANY OF DADS
The Company of Dads brings Lead Dads together. It’s a place to make friends, to learn, to share ideas and most of all, to enjoy a community of dads just like you – dads who are managing children, supporting their partner and keeping it all together. We’re going to have fun together, whether through sharing content, listening to each other’s stories or getting together around the country.
