The Story Behind ImpactHR Group
Built from Life, Designed for Business
Hi, I’m Eric.
In 2016, my world changed forever.
My wife of 17 years passed away due to postpartum depression, leaving me to raise our five children alone. At the time, I was in a corporate HR role—structured, demanding, and suddenly unsustainable.
Navigating grief, single parenthood, and career challenges, I realized the traditional 9-to-5 wasn’t an option anymore. I needed flexibility, autonomy, and a career that aligned with my new reality. That’s when I made the leap from corporate HR to entrepreneurship.
Since then, I’ve remarried and blended my family, gaining new perspectives on resilience, leadership, and the importance of mental health in both personal and professional life. Losing my late wife shaped me in profound ways, and that experience continues to drive my passion for helping businesses build strong, people-first workplaces.
