    Remote Work Life podcast Eric Schidt final

    Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt joins us to unpack the intriguing tension between the undeniable productivity benefits of remote work and the importance of in-office presence for career growth. Schmidt's candid insights spark a thought-provoking discussion on whether the conventional office environment is truly irreplaceable for mentorship and spontaneous learning, particularly for young professionals starting their careers. During our conversation, we explore Schmidt's acknowledgment of remote work's productivity boost, citing studies like Microsoft's successful trial in Japan. Yet, Schmidt remains steadfast in his belief that face-to-face interactions offer unparalleled value. We also examine the concerns of Gen Z employees who feel that remote work might impede their career advancement. This episode challenges existing norms and invites listeners to consider if traditional offices are truly the key to professional success or if new pathways can emerge in this evolving work landscape.Looking for Remote Work?

    Remote For 13 yrs And Bootstrapped!

    Float has operated as a fully remote, bootstrapped SaaS company for 13 years under CEO Glenn Rogers. With a team of 50 across more than 20 countries and no central headquarters, the company has declined venture capital multiple times to maintain control and prioritise sustainable growth. This episode explores how bootstrapping shapes financial discipline, hiring pace, experimentation, and culture in a distributed environment. It looks at what long-term remote operations require in practice, from deliberate culture-building to asynchronous coordination across time zones, and what that means for remote knowledge workers inside a global software business. https://www.linkedin.com/in/remoteworklife/https://remoteworklife.io Looking for Remote Work?

    $120k a year in office space to fully remote

    An empty office bill forced a hard choice: keep paying for space no one used or redirect that money to build a stronger, truly remote company. They chose the second path. Today we walk through how a hackathon project became a profitable SaaS, why closing two offices unlocked momentum, and how annual retreats replaced rent as our most effective culture investment.

    AI For Smarter Meetings w/ Henrik de Gyor My AI fluency

    Today, I'm joined by Henrik de Gyor, Chief Digital Officer of My AI Fluency and a no-nonsense digital transformation leader. He's an expert in how to streamline content operations, integrate AI responsibly, and scale workflows without chaos. Expect practical lessons on metadata, change management, and building repeatable systems that deliver measurable results. In this series, we break down practical workflows for meetings, writing, health, and career growth. Listen now and tell us: where will you start? Remote work gives freedom, yet meetings still drain time and attention. The old model of half-listening while scribbling notes creates errors, missed context, and long post-call cleanup.  The conversation centers on a better way: use AI to capture the full meeting, extract a crisp summary, and map action items with owners and dates. This shift frees you to be present, ask sharper questions, and make decisions in real time.  Instead of juggling tabs and bullet points, you focus on outcomes while a transcript anchors the details you’ll need later. It’s not about buying the trendiest app; it’s about redesigning a workflow that eliminates rework. Looking for Remote Work?

    Turns Out You Can Skip The Office And Still Make $100M

    Brian de Haaff co-founded product software company Aha! in 2013 and has operated it as a fully remote company with no headquarters ever since. A December 2025 blog post reaffirmed the team’s “totally distributed” setup, noting that connection comes through digital rituals and on-sites. The company has scaled to over $100 million in revenue and serves more than a million product builders worldwide without salespeople or office space. https://www.linkedin.com/in/remoteworklife/  https://remoteworklife.io Looking for Remote Work?

    The Fractional COO Model That Actually Works w/ Mary Alice Duff

    What if your work actually gave you energy back? That’s the thread we follow with Mary Alice Duff, a fractional COO who left a decade in social work, built a clothing brand the hard way, and now runs a profitable, remote-first practice from the south of France—without burning herself or her clients out. We talk about the real operations work founders rarely admit: pricing that quietly destroys margins, teams without clarity, and systems that leak time and money. Mary Alice opens her playbook for turning that mess into momentum. Looking for Remote Work?
