About this Event

Behind every employee is a life that doesn’t show up on a resume.

  • A new parent navigating postpartum recovery.
  • A professional quietly caring for an aging parent.
  • A high-performer balancing work with real-life pressures no one talks about.

And yet, most benefits plans were never designed for these moments.

Join us for an intimate fireside chat hosted by The ReFrame Group, where we’ll explore how forward-thinking leaders are reimagining support for the real lives of their people — and what that means for retention, performance, and culture.


Featuring:

  • Rachel Zimmer, Co-Founder & CEO of Simple Ventures
  • Melissa Gallgher, Founder of Alma Care
  • Logan Gibson, Founder & CEO of Kindly
  • Moderated by Nadeem Rajabali, COO of The ReFrame Group

This conversation will challenge conventional thinking around benefits, uncover emerging opportunities in the care economy, and offer a glimpse into what the next generation of employee support looks like.


Takeaways

  • Why traditional benefits plans are failing employees during their most critical life moments
  • The rise of the “hidden workforce” — caregivers, parents, and those under silent pressure
  • How postpartum care and eldercare are becoming strategic priorities for leading employers
  • What HR leaders are missing about retention, performance, and real employee needs
  • How innovative companies are redesigning support systems beyond insurance
  • The business case for investing in care: productivity, loyalty, and long-term ROI
  • What the future of employee well-being looks like — and how to get ahead of it
