How does jumping off of a 40-foot cliff in Puerto Rico lead to an epiphany that a 4-day work week needs to happen?
We’re here to tell the tale.
In today’s episode, Erin shares her story of first pondering and ultimately implementing a 4-day work week with the improve it! team, how she’s found flexibility within the 4-day work week itself, and each internal team member’s reflections on how the 4-day work week has gone since October of 2023.
Erin shares The 3 Bs—balance, boundaries, and breaks—and how our team uses this system to reach our goals, now working 36-hour weeks instead of 40-hour weeks.
If you’ve ever considered a 4-day work week and want to learn more about how to actually implement it—this is the episode for you.
Special sprinkles on top of this episode: how we’re redefining what a “break” means in the middle of the workday
