Have you been considering implementing a four-day workweek into your business but are just a little hesitant? Well, then this episode is for you! I was just as resistant to the idea of shortening the week but when I did it, I realized that you can do less and achieve more while creating an environment that honors people and their lives.

In 1940, the 40-hour workweek law was established and has been the standard for almost all full-time employees. But it’s not necessarily the most productive method because employees don’t really need to work for that long to get things done. When I worked for someone else, I found myself finishing my work far earlier than five o’clock and I wanted to create an environment for my employees that felt more flexible and free! Today I’m telling you all about my company’s working hours, how we’ve adopted the four-hour workweek, and what research says about this new trend!
