Helping Founders Navigate Parenthood Without Sacrificing Their Business or Well-Being

Founders juggle the relentless demands of scaling a business and raising a family—but traditional benefits don’t address the unique pressures of parenting while leading a company. Burnout is a leading cause of startup failure, with 63% of entrepreneurs experiencing burnout. Founders with families face additional stress, as working parents experience burnout at a 60% higher rate than their child-free peers.

When founders and their teams feel supported at home, they bring sharper focus, resilience, and leadership to their companies.

Whole Parent Coaching provides personalized coaching to help founders navigate parental leave, prevent burnout, and align their leadership with their personal values—ensuring lasting success in both business and family life.

Our Services

Parental Leave Coaching

Parental leave is a major transition—but for founders, it can feel even more overwhelming. Our coaching helps you plan workload transitions, set boundaries, and balance leadership with new family responsibilities while navigating co-founder, investor, and team expectations with confidence and clarity. With the right support, you can step away without losing momentum and return more focused, engaged, and ready to lead—both at home and in your business.

Values Alignment & Burnout Prevention Coaching

Scaling your company shouldn’t come at the expense of your health, happiness, or family life. Our coaching helps founders gain clarity on their core values, develop sustainable work habits, and set boundaries with investors, co-founders, and their team. You’ll learn to prevent burnout while keeping your business moving forward and create realistic routines that support both company growth and family well-being. Ideal for founders feeling overwhelmed, stretched too thin, or questioning whether they can balance it all.

Growing a Business, Raising a Family Coaching

Parenthood changes everything—including how you lead. Our coaching helps founders balance entrepreneurship and family life by redefining their identity, shifting to sustainable leadership, and building work-life rhythms that keep both business and home on track. You’ll learn to manage partnership dynamics, set realistic boundaries, and stay focused—even through sleepless nights and unpredictable days. Lead with confidence at home and in your business, without guilt or burnout.

FAQs

  • Whole Parent Coaching is designed specifically for founders navigating both entrepreneurship and parenthood. Unlike a business coach or advisor who focuses on scaling your company, we help you align your leadership with your values, set boundaries, and create sustainable work-life rhythms. And while therapy explores deep emotional healing, coaching is actionable, forward-focused, and tailored to your unique challenges as a founder and parent.

  • Founders face intense pressure to scale quickly, lead effectively, and balance personal responsibilities—all without burning out. Research shows that 63% of entrepreneurs experience burnout, and working parents are even more at risk. Coaching helps you navigate these demands with clarity, avoid exhaustion, and build a leadership style that supports both your business and family life.

  • When founders feel overwhelmed, exhausted, or pulled in too many directions, their leadership suffers. Coaching helps you set clear priorities, prevent burnout, and show up more focused and engaged. A well-supported founder makes better decisions, leads more effectively, and builds a stronger, more resilient company.

  • Both moms and dads experience profound shifts in identity, priorities, and mental health when becoming parents. 1 in 10 dads experience postpartum depression, and up to 50% experience increased stress and anxiety. Supporting fathers not only improves their well-being but also drives greater gender equity in the workplace, reducing the stigma around parental leave and caregiving responsibilities for all parents.
