Nomad Stays: Digital Nomads, Come and Stay Awhile with Mark Phillips | TNN47
03/14/22 • 28 min
Yes, digital nomads stay in one place for some time. Many professionals and employees have realized that the newly implemented remote and flexible work policies have allowed them to work free from the anchor of a company office or workspace. This has given birth to far more remote workers and digital nomads seeking freedom of movement while still building a career. Of course, stable internet connection, distraction-free working spaces, and access to necessities are a must. This is where Mark Phillips of Nomad Stays is an expert.
Mark joins our hosts, Andrew Jernigan and Allen Koski in this episode of The New Nomad. They talked about how important accommodation is for the laptop-wielding workers and what are the things to look out for when finding a place to stay. They discussed their adventures as nomads themselves and their experiences in countries budding as digital nomad destinations. This episode entertains and educates listeners about the expectations in the digital nomad lifestyle. So be ready with your note-taking skills as the information they share is as valuable as gold.

The Remote Show: Talking Async Meeting and Beyond with Tyler Sellhorn | TNN46
If you feel dragged to a Zoom meeting in the middle of the night when most of your colleagues are fully awake because it's daytime where they're at, you are not alone. The lack of real-time communication is becoming increasingly prominent in the workplace. For this reason, asynchronous communication is becoming a preferred means of communication in the workplace - making it easier for employees to work remotely without fear that they're missing out on critical conversations happening at the office. Tyler Sellhorn, Head of Customer Experience at Yac, is your go-to man when it comes to this type of work communication.
Tyler joins our hosts, Andrew Jernigan and Allen Koski, in this episode of The New Nomad as they talk about the evolution of communication at work. Since most companies opened their doors to working remotely, communication has to be adjusted as well. They discussed why both synchronous and asynchronous meetings are important and the benefits employees and businesses can get from them. It won’t be surprising if companies adopt this shift as well. Truly an enlightening and timely conversation between our three nomads!
[3:41] People are people long before they are workers
[7:40] Success in the internet
[12:04] Asynchronous meetings maintain remote team alignment
[14:53] Synchronous: Bond, Asynchronous: Work
[23:19] Transitioning to remote work is an individual's decision after all
[25:20] Trust in remote work is vital
GUEST BIO:
Tyler Sellhorn is the Head of Customer Experience at Yac. However, Tyler didn’t begin his career as a “location-independent” advocate. Tyler actually has over 10-years of experience in secondary math education under his belt.
However, after over a decade of educating young minds, Tyler pivoted sharply to a fully-remote role in B2B SaaS in 2019, working for Hubstaff. Not only was this an industry change, but also a career change as Tyler went from educator to Customer Success Manager and then shortly to Director of Customer Experience. Since then, Tyler’s enthusiasm for remote and async-first work is clearly evident.
In Tyler’s short time in the remote and async landscape, he’s talked up a storm – interviewing the best and brightest in async on his Remote Show podcast, amassed a tidy remote-centric following on LinkedIn and Twitter, and taken up the remote gauntlet at Yac.

Ukraine is in the headlines all around the world. Russia has built up tens of thousands of troops along the Ukrainian border, an act of aggression that could spiral into the largest military conflict on European soil in decades.

In this episode of The New Nomad, Orest joins our hosts, Andrew Jernigan and Allen Koski, in educating the audience about what is really happening in the war between Russia and Ukraine. Orest talked about the history of why this gruesome event came to be and how Ukrainians are risking their lives to fight for their freedom. We all don’t know how this conflict will turn out but history is being written. It’s all up to all of us to do our part. Hope is not lost.
