Can you run your business from anywhere? In this episode we talk with someone that is doing just that. Evelynn Ratcliffe, business owner, is managing the operations of a $10M plus Toronto based custom home building and remodeling company from a villa in sunny Barbados during a world pandemic.

Show highlights include:

• How moving thousands of miles away from your company injects steroids into your productivity levels (8:32) 
• If it wasn’t for COVID we wouldn't have taken this step (13:58)
• Why “front-loading” your week makes you more productive and gives you more freedom to spend time with your family (19:39)

• The weird way testing your genomes helps build a more profitable business (28:40)
