Show Notes

Full disclaimer...it's fantastic, but not without its challenges.

MayeCreate made the shift to an experimental four day work week this summer. 

Spoiler alert - we love it! 

A four day work week is fantastic, but it's not without its challenges. 

We all feel a renewed sense of energy and creativity, which is good because we have to enhance efficiency in a whole new way now. Evaluating even our oldest processes because we don’t have the bandwidth to do them the same way anymore. 

We have been pushed outside of our comfort zone during this transition in ways we needed to be pushed a long time ago. Now we have the motivation to get uncomfortable to get comfortable and make this transition work!

In this episode you can hear alllll about it and maybe learn a thing or two along the way .

Ok back to work I go!

P.S. If you’re wondering why we did this little experiment we also documented our reasoning for the decision in another blog/podcast.
