Imagine waking up in the morning, and instead of rushing up to the office, you open your laptop, make your breakfast and start your working day, as you want, wherever you want and how you want. Is this possible?
Kelly and Anina work with clients every day to help them re-design their lives and many are focused on remote work life with no plans of looking back. While there are more opportunities for ‘remote work’ being offered by companies their definitions and practices may differ.
Working remotely, means you have control of your schedule, of your tasks and you are in charge of your progress. In other words, it means you are in control of your own work life.
Remote work is NOT office life in your home. Remote work allows you to organize your work sessions around the life you choose.
Block your calendar, take a break and go for a walk, turn off notifications and stop living on-call all day to react immediately to every message. Stop waiting for time when you can focus and create it, structure your day around you. Manage your calendar, don’t let it manage you. Your job doesn't own you, you own your job and you‘re more than just a job.
You’ll learn realistic examples and expectations for:
- How to design your remote work life?
- Where to find remote opportunities?
- You got that remote job, now what?
Excited to learn more?
Submit your questions and we’ll answer them live during this event. We’ll also personalize our answers to your situation as your questions come into the live chat!
