Remote worker solitude, with Nikki Parsons & Sara Ronzero

Remote worker solitude, with Nikki Parsons & Sara Ronzero - Life on Mars Podcast Episode 57

Remote worker solitude is something that strikes within 12-18 months of working remotely. We all suffer from it yet very few speak about it publicly.

As an officeless company, we have to be very aware of this, and coach people into spotting it and dealing with it correctly. That's why we have decided to normalise it, speaking about it publicly, on our blog, on our podcast, and so forth.

In this occasion, we speak with two friends of the company: Nikki Parsons and Sara Ronzero.

We discuss home office setup, the importance of documentation, the definition of productivity, personal schedules and mental bandwidth optimisation, how to deal with this with your partner/housemates/family and much more.

Also, Sara is a strong contender for fanciest drink category on the upcoming Life on Mars awards.
