Remote Work Retirement

In this episode, Camille shares the five traits that most predict success in remote work or running an online business. Drawing from a decade of coaching thousands of people, she explains how to thrive in digital environments, adapt to change, and build momentum—especially if you’re 50+.

Episode Highlights:

• Digital adaptability The win is flexibility with constant platform changes and AI updates, not mastery of one tool. You do NOT need to be tech savvy!
• Growth mindset + curiosity. Replace stagnation with experimentation, self-teaching, and community-based learning.
• Excitement and engagement. Contribute to virtual culture on Zoom, Slack, and PM tools; engage at a sustainable cadence.
• Patience. Expect outages, updates, and friction; use AI to troubleshoot and keep moving.
• Positive self-talk. Track your internal dialogue and challenge “I can’t” narratives with evidence and reframing.

Key Takeaways:

• Success online is driven by traits, not credentials. Skills can be learned fast once mindset is aligned.
• Engage in digital culture to be seen, supported, and accelerated.
• Use AI as your first-line helper for roadblocks and learning paths.
• Hiring managers and clients notice these traits across your resume, LinkedIn, and interviews.
