So, you're gearing up to head back to work after parental leave? Big moment! But before you dive back into emails, meetings, and remembering how to drink coffee while it's still hot, it's worth having a few key conversations with your partner. Returning to work is a team effort, and a little prep can go a long way in keeping things (mostly) smooth.

Let’s be real—millennials aren’t sticking around just for the free coffee and office snacks. They’re looking for workplaces that get it, especially when it comes to balancing work and family life. In fact, according to Best Place for Working Parents, 83% of millennials would leave their current job for one with stronger family-friendly supports.
