If you’ve been meaning to “get to it,” this is your time! **How it Works:** We’ll meet for 90 minutes on Zoom and begin with a quick check-in and intention setting. After that, we’ll mute and work independently in silence together. At the end, we’ll come back for a short share to celebrate progress. – *First 10 minutes:* verbal check-in + set your intention – *Next 70 minutes:* focused work (silent co-working) – *Final 10 minutes:* share what you worked on + celebrate progress This is a form of *“body doubling”*: working in the presence of others to stay focused and accountable. Studies have shown that simply working in the presence of others can improve focus and follow-through. **RSVP on Luma here:** [https://luma.com/4qtemyzl](https://luma.com/4qtemyzl) **What Should You Work On?** Anything you’ve been meaning to get to! – setting goals for the month – fleshing out content ideas – organizing your finances – tackling something you’ve been putting off!
