Mom Returns to Work: Dedicated Coaching
"It helped me understand that I didn’t have to wait for the rain to stop, instead, to learn how to dance in it."
Alice Antonucci - Senior Scientist Packaging
Alice Antonucci, Senior Scientist in Packaging at Fater, reflected on her post-maternity coaching experience with these thoughts.
It was an unexpected journey during one of the most complex times in her life: starting a new role at work while adjusting to having a baby who was just beginning daycare, all while grappling with feelings of guilt, uncertainty, and exhaustion.
Returning to work after a long absence is never easy. However, coming back from maternity leave often requires a complete redefinition of oneself in terms of job responsibilities, family dynamics, and personal identity.
Coaching has become a powerful tool for rediscovering confidence and clarity. It’s an inner journey that has helped Alice and many other mothers navigate the challenges of motherhood, allowing them to find a renewed sense of balance. Rather than reverting to their previous states, they learn to embrace new strengths and realign their focus on what truly matters.
Alice highly recommends this experience to every new mom. Taking care of yourself during such a profound life change is the essential first step towards becoming your best self.
