#308a: Everything You Need to Know About Working From Home (But Were Too Afraid To Ask!) with Rachel Hollis (COVID-19 Series)

Like many these days, you might be finding yourself working virtually -- and whether this is new to you or not, there are some simple strategies you can implement to stay focused, on track, and moving forward as an entrepreneur. My dear friend, Rachel Hollis, originally interviewed me for her podcast RISE, and because we both want this episode to reach as many entrepreneurs and individuals affected by the recent crisis as possible, we are releasing it on the Online Marketing Made Easy podcast as well. I hope with all my heart that you find this episode helpful, insightful, and inspiring. Now, why did Rachel come to me looking for guidance on how to run a virtual team and work from home without losing focus? Probably because I’ve been building a virtual team for almost 11 years, which means I’ve got a couple tricks up my sleeve for being successful in the online workspace. Here’s a preview of what we talked about... How to set expectations and what tools are best for staying on track. The importance of sticking to a task and how to make sure your team does the same. How to show up for your team and lead in turbulent times. How to minimize context switching -- trust me when I say that this one is a lifesaver! Tips for staying focused. Strategies for maintaining healthy work habits and setting up your workspace. The importance of over-communication to your team and collaborators.
