This panel explores how embracing work-life policies can help parents be more present and engaged. Panelists will discuss how breaking traditional gender roles and fostering open communication can create a more balanced, respectful, and less stressful home environment. When responsibilities are fairly distributed, parents experience less burnout, children benefit from more engaged role models, and families thrive as a cohesive unit. Additionally, the discussion will highlight how reducing workplace stress and prioritizing mental health can support this balance, leading to stronger family connections and healthier future generations.
