In reply to Lauren Fletcher. I’m in the UK - it definitely plays for me! I listen on Apple

Now, I think that my response could’ve come quite late by this point. But yes, I do agree that if we are to come into offices on selected days of the week, we’ll prioritize this time for those things that can only be done in-person.
I’m not going to change from full-time to part-time this year, so that part of the episode is not applicable to me this year.

In reply to Lauren Fletcher. @Lauren - not sure why it won't play in the UK! It should! I can look into that. Are you listening on Apple podcasts or a different player? But yes, I like the idea of taking Wednesday off. It breaks up the week nicely.

This thread has come at a really good time for me as I move into fully self employed from next week.
I think my ideal schedule would include a day off in the week, Wednesday ideally so that I can devote time to other pursuits like swimming and walking.
Aside from that working hours tend to revolve around school drop offs and pick up planning with my husband.
Sadly I can’t listen to the podcast as it won’t play in the UK, but I will definitely be giving this topic some thought in the coming weeks!
Thank you for these ideas:)
