It’s astonishing that despite the gains that women have made in the workplace in recent years, many of us still feel guilty about taking time off for maternity leave — and may even feel some stigma about it. On the Working It podcast this week I talk to Janine Chamberlin, UK country manager at LinkedIn, who is about to have her second child and take a year’s leave.
Janine has publicly wondered why women’s own anxieties are still so prevalent. As she writes in an insightful blog that builds on the topics we talk about: “The more we share our experiences of maternity leave and pregnancy in the workplace like this, the more we will chip away at any remaining sense of stigma — and maybe then, we’ll live in a working world where expecting parents can finally say goodbye to the guilt entirely.”
