In the latest episode of How The Future Works, Barry and Eleanor are joined by Emily and Alex Marcham

Emily and Alex are a married couple who decided that life was too short to be employed in a 9-5 and so made the big life decision to resign from their jobs and embrace the digital nomadic lifestyle.  Emily went from being a legal secretary to becoming a virtual assistant, social media expert and blogger and Alex left behind his role as a HVAC engineer to embrace a new future as a web designer. They now live the freelance dream and travel the world, work for themselves and earn income from client projects through open talent platforms.

It’s a fascinating and inspiring discussion that might just tempt you to think differently about what work is all about!
