Rosina McAlpineGUEST
So the reason why I created Win-Win Parenting all those over a decade ago was because as a researcher, I was looking at work and family life.

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
And what was happening in the workplace was workplaces were finally starting to say, all right, we need to look at the whole person.

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
They were putting in these wellbeing programs and everyone was, you know, look what we're doing.

We provide it to organizations so that they can help their working parents manage the home part, the, you know, family part of work-family balance.

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
Now with our programs, the first thing we say to organizations is, of course, one program is great, better than none.

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
But what's actually going to give you that ROI, that's going to give you that engagement and that ongoing, you know, embedding, like to actually embed strategies into family life.

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
We don't where our big thing isn't a one-off here and there, you know, yay, we gave you a one-off seminar this year and we'll do another one next year, like somehow that the kids have one seminar and then they're gone.

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
You don't have to worry about them for the rest of the year, right? So our flagship program is 12 months and many of the organisations that start with our six months move on to 12 because you think about it.

Christian HarrisHOST
So in terms of that business case, then what would you say are the outcomes that you've seen with clients that you've supported in terms of, you know, whether it's retention or engagement or, you know, how do they, you know, what are the levers that are being pulled and the positive results that are being seen?

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
My background is research and I've got a PhD and a master's of higher education.

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
I started interviewing experts from around the world, from psychology, biology, neuroscience, to find out how they raised their children.

So what kind of questions do parents come to you with about raising an only child? Do you get many?

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
Before when I had my one and only, I was also worried about all of these things because I hadn't actually looked at the research back then.

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
But parents often ask me, you know, will my child be lonely? Am I being selfish is another one.

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
If I only have one child, other questions are like, how do I not overprotect them or overindulge them, you know, to spoil them when, you know, they are my one and only and, I remember the sibling, you know, the...

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
The person who called in earlier said, you know, we love you more than life, you know, because we've only got you.

Rosina McAlpineGUEST
So how to not put pressure, too much pressure on the child because they are the only one, like you can't share, you know, dad's mum's attention between all of them.
