tw: alcohol addiction, depression
Natalie Bell is CEO, MG OMD and one of the industry's most prolific leaders, with a string of accolades to show for it.

Alcohol use disorder is a spectrum, and we need to talk more about what this complex condition looks like;

Together they run Dads at Microsoft, a group that supports dads - and mums - across the world in the company. The group's listening circles are where parents come together for advice and support seasoned with good humour, which makes sense because Ben and Joe are definitely a good laugh as well as being very serious about the need for practical support for working parents. In this lively chat we cover a range of subjects that will resonate with all parents and managers of parents. Key takeaways: How to run a listening circle for parents in your workplace - you don't need all the answers - but someone else in the group might have them; Role modelling is key, as is communication, when creating solutions to help your work-life blend; and Self-care isn't selfish, it's a must-have when you're a parent.
