The Self-Employed Life 222: Carson Tate - Work Simply
I love this phrase by our guest today; You can't outwork your busyness. But don't we go down trying! We had a great conversation today about how you can learn to work simply by understanding your unique personality traits. Instead of the generalized, one size fits all approach to productivity and time management; we are looking at how to custom tailor an approach just for you.
Carson Tate is a dynamic teacher, coach and author known for personal transformation and simple, powerful actionable content. She is a nationally renowned expert on productivity, whose views have been included in top-tier business media including Bloomberg Businessweek, Forbes, Fast Company, and The New York Times.
Her first book, Work Simply: Embracing Your Personal Productivity Style is what we're discussing today. Carson has a fresh approach that I'm certain will resonate with many Creative Warriors.
