Summary
Today we had the pleasure of sitting down with the incredible and iconic Shay Cochrane, CEO of Social Squares. We chatted about the LIFE-CHANGING concept of her 16-hour work week. Shay covers her story behind starting the 16-hour work week (hint: it's probably not how or when you expected she started it) and her thoughts behind building and scaling a successful business while only working a couple of days a week.
