Support your working parents
My workshops and coaching supports parents and leaders to create an environment where parents can thrive and leaders are leading the way! Recent results from Family friendly workplaces report parents feeling stressed, mentally exhausted and feeling like they have no energy for their children after a hard day’s work. A third of working parents are looking for a new job that provides more flexibility and support- something needs to shift.
My workshops support working parents to perform at their best. The insights and strategies I share will result in higher staff engagement, improved productivity and higher staff retention. These sessions provide practical steps for creating an inclusive work environment where mums and dads thrive.

Corporate workshops
to support parents
There are two types of workshops I run.
The workshops for working parents help them identify their purpose, what they want and need to thrive as a working parent and how they can effectively juggle children and their career. We look at how to work smarter and shift some of our ways of working to adapt to life as a working parent.
The second workshop I run is to support leaders in creating a uniformed approach to flexible working and parental support. We work together to identify a company vision to ensure that all leaders take a unified approach.

What they say about Sarah
“...this program will be helpful in creating the life you truly want and deserve.”
Last year I had the pleasure of meeting Sarah Maconachie who is enthusiastic, articulate and highly engaging. I learned about her mindset program and how it has impacted her personally which piqued my interest as an avid learner. Mindset is something that greatly impacts the work that I do, and I often see how mindset limits my clients potential to fully embrace the philosophies and practices I promote to create the ideal culture and team alignment. I have found the course extremely helpful in developing my own mindset and providing me with greater insight into how I can support mindset development in others. I think this program would be helpful to just about everyone. Unless you have achieved everything you want in your life then this program will be helpful in creating the life you truly want and deserve. Sarah is amazing and has always created a supportive and engaging learning experience.
Lisa Younger, Director of Evolving Doors“I would highly recommend Sarah as a coach and for company workshops.”
I have worked with Sarah over a number of years in various capacities. Sarah has the ability to see exactly what is holding you back and what you need to shift to improve your life. Not only has Sarah been a brilliant support on my personal journey, she was also a guest presenter for a top tier event we held. Presenting to an executive suite of clients on the importance of mindset on developing a high-performance culture. Sarah was highly engaging, authentic, and we received brilliant feedback from the event. I would highly recommend Sarah as a coach and for company workshops.
Jodie Choyce, Associate partner for Michael Page“Sarah's holistic approach to mentoring and coaching was instrumental in my journey to success.”
Sarah's holistic approach to mentoring and coaching was instrumental in my journey to success. Through personalized one-on-one sessions and dynamic group leadership, she not only guided me through challenges but also held me accountable to my goals. Her tailored approach ensured no one was left behind, fostering a supportive learning environment where collective growth thrived. I wholeheartedly recommend Sarah to anyone seeking genuine transformation and empowerment.
Rolfe Pike, Founder of Pamwe GroupFrequently Asked Questions
My programs are beneficial for any organisation that employs working parents, regardless of industry. This includes corporate offices, educational institutions, healthcare facilities and more. Any company that values employee wellbeing, productivity and retention will find value in my workshops and programs.
My workshops and programs equip working parents with tools and strategies to manage their dual roles more effectively, reducing stress and improving their work-life balance. Happier, more balanced employees are more engaged, productive and loyal. Additionally, supporting parents through flexible policies and a unified approach fosters an inclusive workplace culture, leading to higher job satisfaction and retention.
For the corporate workshops, the time commitment is 2-3 hours, making it a manageable addition to your team’s schedule. For The Modern Working Parent program, the commitment is spread over 20 weeks, with participants engaging in 10 online modules and fortnightly group coaching sessions. This structure allows employees to integrate the program into their routines without significant disruption to their work responsibilities.
Organisations can expect several positive outcomes, including improved employee wellbeing and job satisfaction, enhanced productivity, better retention rates, and a stronger, more inclusive company culture. My programs also help promote gender equality by supporting both working mothers and fathers, leading to a more diverse and balanced workplace.
Investing in my programs can yield substantial returns in terms of employee productivity, engagement and retention. The cost of the corporate workshops ($1995-$2495) and The Modern Working Parent program ($2495) is a small cost investment for the significant improvements in employee wellbeing, reduced turnover, and enhanced workplace morale. Additionally, companies that support their working parents often become employers of choice, attracting top talent and reducing recruitment costs.
Participants in The Modern Working Parent program have access to a group chat for the duration of the program, allowing them to seek support and connect with like-minded parents anytime. This ongoing support helps reinforce the program’s teachings and provides a sense of community and accountability, enhancing the overall impact.
