Career design for working parents.

Sparkbright is for working parents and caregivers WHO WANT TO DESIGN A MEANINGFUL CAREER THAT FITS IN WITH THEIR LIFE.

Sparkbright helps you design work that’s purposeful, sustainable, and honest about constraints like school pickup, the mental load, and the challenge of getting out the door in the morning.

Whether you’re about to go on parental leave, finding your way back from it, or somewhere in the long middle of juggling care and work, you’ll get practical tools, coaching, and a way of thinking that accepts the mess and complexity as part of this life stage.

Behind the cartoons.

You might have found your way here through stick figure drawings…

Allow me to explain. I started Juggle Slowly as a place to draw the hilarious, tragic, and absurd moments of this season of life; the bits that don’t fit on a LinkedIn update.

The cartoons depict the honest constraints that we need to accept when designing a career in this life stage.
