Hey everyone, and welcome to this episode of Conscious Culture with Sarah Riegelhuth, CEO and founder of Grow My Team!
We’re in the thick of it with what I’m calling the ‘C’ word - let’s not dive in too much, but here we are: living through this reality where we all have to work from home, something I’ve been doing for six years.
My guest on this episode is my friend and fellow https://www.aubreymarcus.com/pages/fit-for-service-mastermind (Aubrey Marcus FFS-er), Sam Kabert, and he’s been working from home for a while, too!
Let’s dive in to all things remote work with Sam Kabert.
-
“We’ve been building the cocoon, right now we’re in the cocoon, and we’re going to come out the other side with the transformation.”
-
Remote work has long moved beyond simply being a trend or a lifestyle. It’s a natural evolution in the way we work and collaborate. A complete and vital redesign with profound positive impact for businesses, teams and society as a whole.
With it comes a work culture revolution that requires putting culture, freedom, trust and conscious behaviour at the core of every business that wants to thrive.
I’m Sarah Riegelhuth, your host, and I’m a serial entrepreneur, investor and expert in growing happy remote teams. Since 2014 I’ve been running all of my businesses remotely and that has deeply changed who I am as a leader. I’ve gone from micro-managing an unhappy team, suffering high turnover and working long hours, to moving to the US, traveling roughly six months of the year, loving the shit out of my team and being constantly amazed as to what we’re achieving.
Join me as we dive deep into conversations about remote work magic, conscious culture, and the future of work with some of the most inspiring founders and leaders in the remote work space.
Insights, tips, success and failure, innovation.. we share it all.

In this episode, Sam and Sarah get into how their different businesses are surviving the current pandemic, including those that have taken a hit or needed to pivot, like merchandising, Airbnb property management and networking events.
Sam and Sarah also discuss how their day-to-day routines have and haven’t changed in the current climate, how we’re connecting with our people and the choice of diversity in where we live.

“We don’t want work to be separate from life. We want to be working on things we care about, things we’re passionate about, things that make impact, whether we’re an employee or an entrepreneur or a contractor or a freelancer. We want to know that the work we’re doing makes a difference. And it’s part of us, it’s just as important as socialising and working out and spending time with our families.”
