[ParentalLeave] [Non-Profit]

#27: In this episode of the Fearless Entrepreneurs Podcast, host Cindy Chang speaks with Lacey Kempinski, founder of Balanced Good, a company dedicated to transforming the way nonprofits support parents during parental leave. 

👩‍💼 Lacey Kempinski went from nonprofit fundraiser to founder of Balanced Good, a company on a mission to redefine parental leave in the nonprofit world. Fueled by motherhood and a desire for meaningful change, she’s challenging the outdated systems that push working parents to the sidelines.

In this episode, host Cindy Chang dives deep with Lacey on:
✅ Why parental leave should be celebrated, not feared
✅ What nonprofits (and most workplaces) are getting totally wrong
✅ How to build a business that actually reflects your values
✅ The emotional toll of choosing between career growth and family — and what to do about it

💡 Whether you’re a founder, nonprofit leader, or working parent navigating the chaos — this one’s for you.
