Lois Volta
Reclaiming the Work That Holds Us Together
Lois Volta is a Philadelphia-based author and founder of Volta Naturals whose book, Confessions of a Cleaning Lady, challenges the invisible expectations surrounding household labor. Drawing on a decade spent inside family homes, she empowers women to name, own, and redesign the unpaid work of caring, coordinating, and holding it all together, transforming domestic life from a source of guilt into healthier, more egalitarian relationships. For women in business, this conversation is especially relevant because the workday rarely ends when they leave the office. As a successful author and entrepreneur herself, Lois brings a unique perspective to the intersection of professional ambition and the often invisible work of managing a home, exploring how women can rethink what they carry, create greater balance, and build lives that support both their work and their relationships.
