Stop 

losing your best talent.

 support 

Give mums the

they

 deserve 

UK media organisations are losing brilliant talent because returning mums aren’t getting the support they need. They’re juggling deadlines, nursery runs, mum guilt, and the never-ending mental load—without a playbook.

 The Problem 

 The Result 

They leave. And that’s costing you time, money, and future leaders.

  • With 19% leaving the workforce entirely. A lack of practical systems for managing home responsibilities makes returning to work unsustainable.

  • Due to caregiving responsibilities, impacting their income, career progression, and job satisfaction.

  • Is linked to a lack of systematic support to help them stay in senior roles while balancing family responsibilities.

talent is slipping away

talent is slipping away ✨

The Comeback Collective is here to fix that.
This isn’t some fluffy “welcome back” chat.

It’s a high-impact, action-driven program designed specifically for media organisations to help working mums stay, thrive, and succeed—at work and at home.

What makes this different….

Community-Driven -
Peer groups that support each other long after the program ends

Media-Specific -
I get the fast pace, tight deadlines, and client chaos

Work & Home Focused - Because life doesn’t pause when you log in to Zoom.

Action-Packed Learning -
No fluff, just real strategies that actually work.

This is about keeping your best people, cutting recruitment costs, and building a leadership pipeline that doesn’t leak.

How it works….

Peer Power – Monthly Action Learning Sets where mums tackle real-life challenges head-on

Workshops – Practical tools for mums to handle sick days, surprises, and the daily juggle — so work gets their best, not what’s left

One-to-One Support – For those who need a tailored plan to balance work and home life

Runs for six months. Online or in-person. Designed for mums in their first two years back

What’s in it for you…

Stop the talent drain – Keep experienced professionals instead of constantly replacing them

Save money – Less recruitment, less burnout, more retention

More women in leadership – Because career breaks shouldn’t be career killers

  • “Zoe’s tools and systems have been SO helpful during my transition back to work with my second child. I know that I’m great at my job but I was struggling with the logistics of having 2 children under 4 to manage at the same time. With Zoe’s help I’ve set up slick tools and systems like a weekly delegation meeting with my partner, a back up plan for childcare (that can be utilised last minute) if one of the children is sick and even a process for leaving them to go on work trips - a lot of my team and clients are in New York. It’s made me realise the whole thing is not only manageable but enjoyable and I’m so pleased because without my career I don’t think I’d feel like me. “

  • “Zoe opened my eyes to the support I had around me, especially when it came to childcare, and helped me create a plan for when and how to use it. It’s meant I’m no longer just running from work to mum duties—I have more space to focus on my career and feel more balanced overall. I finally feel like I’m getting back to me."
