As leaders, sales professionals and solo-preneurs this new market reality of digital-first and remote work has added a lot of stress and imbalance for many of us.

I personally have my good days and bad days. Leaders who used to lead teams in the cubicles and offices around them have had to deal with a new challenge of motivating, and keeping their teams on-track remotely. For us salespeople we started off by over-functioning, churning out the results but doing it by spending too much time in front of the screen and allowing very little time for ourselves.

January 1st 2021 was a reality check for many of us. The remote only, largely isolated, digital-first work environment is likely here to stay for the next 12 months. The data also shows that many of our client interactions will stay remote and many of our staff will want to keep it that way as well.

We need to adjust, but we also need to optimize and approach our time, energy and mental health. As leaders we need to take the lead and do this for ourselves and our teams. Today’s podcast is about that.
