Carrie’s guest this week is Russell Marbut, who is both Carrie’s coworker and her husband. Carrie and Russell already work together, and are also working together remotely during quarantine. Russell and Carrie start off with a typical WFH day, and discuss the differences between working together before quarantine and during quarantine. They then move on to the challenges of communication while working remotely, the emotional roller coaster some of us might be on, and how exercise is a big part of maintaining some semblance of normalcy. Carrie tells us how she sets boundaries to differentiate work days from weekend days, and how supporting local businesses can make that a little easier! Carrie and Russell then go into a lightning round of questions about what work is like when they’re not working remotely, and share how they manage being a couple in a professional setting. Carrie and Russell wrap up with their approaches to side gigs and hobbies, and how they recognize and appreciate the sacrifices each of them makes.
