Embracing Remote Life: Flexibility, Sun, and a Finish Line
At The VA Hub Ltd, we celebrate more than just productivity, we champion freedom, balance and living life to the fullest. From marathons to Mediterranean coworking, here’s a little inspiration for making remote work work for you.
A Big Win for Jenny!
This weekend, one of our incredible VAs, Jenny, completed the Cork City Half Marathon — and we couldn’t be prouder! Born and raised in Cork and now living in Barcelona, Jenny embodies what we value most: determination, balance and the courage to show up fully wherever you are.
It was her first-ever race, and not only did she cross the finish line with a smile, but she also celebrated with a well-earned Domino’s pizza. After 21km of hard work, she’s now enjoying a much-needed rest, a true reminder that our remote team is always achieving amazing things, both on and off the clock.
Remote Life = Flexible Life
When the weather’s this good, why stay indoors? One of the best perks of remote work is the freedom to choose where and how you work. Whether it’s a sunny park bench or your favorite garden nook, here are some quick tips to help you thrive outdoors:
Time it right: Work early mornings or late afternoons to dodge peak heat
Seek shade: Use natural cover or invest in an anti-glare screen
Hydrate + rest: Take real breaks and keep your water bottle close
Stay focused: Noise-cancelling headphones are your outdoor productivity hack
Remote life isn’t just flexible, it’s an opportunity to bring joy and wellbeing into your day, every day.
