Well, we're almost 2 years into our 4-day experiment now. Which probably makes it more of a permanent fixture than an experiment. There's not really a manual though, so...things ebb and flow and we're navigating the bumps as they come.

When we started sharing about our four-day work week adventure, we quickly realized not everyone wanted a four-day week. Some people were downright opposed - one even asked us if we were trying to retire!

But EVERYONE wants to figure out how to get more work done in less time. People all over are looking for ways to feel less overwhelmed, scoot out of work earlier, or get more done without losing their minds. So much so that Stacy and Monica were even invited to give a talk about how we ventured into our four-day workweek to a national association.

As content recyclers, we looked at that beautiful talk slide deck and thought, "Geez, I bet other people would want to hear this too." Hence, the birth of this new podcast/blog post combo.

In this episode Stacy and Monica will give you an update on the current challenges we're trying to fix to maintain our four-day week and, from our recent presentation, we'll share:

  • The 4 game-changing questions that helped us identify what to cut, automate, or lean into
  • That one simple automation that saves Monica 20 minutes EVERY time she creates a podcast (and how you can do something similar)
  • How tracking the right metrics completely changed our marketing strategy (and saved Monica hours of blog writing)
  • Our actual list of productivity tools that made this all possible (we're not sponsored, we just love 'em!)
  • The biggest mindset shifts that had to happen before any of this worked

Whether you're dreaming of a shorter work week, trying to leave the office in time for your kid's soccer game, or just want to stop feeling like your hair's on fire every day - there's something in here for you.

Small changes, big results. That's been our secret sauce. You can do it too.
