What’s a co-working session? It’s basically an excuse for members to get together without having to speak, LOL, and feel accomplished when we leave because we have worked on a project that we needed to get done while being with kindred spirits at the same time!
Usually our format is that cameras are on but audio is off, except for Jamie and Katie. We greet everyone and Katie and I chat for 10 minutes or so. Then I set a timer for 45 minutes and all of us silently work, read, knit, fold laundry, whatever!
When the timer goes off, we celebrate our progress and then I usually take five minutes at the end to answer a question that an IM member has recently asked me. And there you have it – co-working sessions in a nutshell!
Members who can’t come live will often “watch” the replay when they can and use it as a motivational tool/timer to work on something. Other members watch the replay just to hear the chatting we do at the beginning and end.
