Most business owners don't have a working harder problem—they have a too close to see it problem. In this episode, Camille shares why so many entrepreneurs, freelancers, consultants, and side-hustlers get stuck chasing bigger projects, more tools, and more advice when the real solution is often much simpler. Through three real-world examples, she demonstrates how one small change can create a surprisingly big result. Featured Stories 1. John John believed he had a sales problem and invested heavily trying to fix it. The real issue turned out to be a simple mindset shift that completely changed how he approached client conversations. 2. Kate After investing thousands of dollars to grow her photography business, Kate was losing potential customers without realizing it. One missing piece in her business created a major opportunity for growth. 3. Janelle Janelle had a website, social media presence, and even a viral video, yet her business wasn't growing the way she expected. The solution wasn't another big project—it was a tiny tweak hiding in plain sight. Key Takeaways The fix is almost never what you think.Small, high-leverage changes often outperform major business overhauls.Being too close to your business can make obvious opportunities difficult to see.The right tweak depends on your goals, whether that's revenue, growth, clarity, or rest.Camille also shares a simple exercise—and an AI-powered prompt—to help you identify your own Tiny Tweaks so you can stop spinning your wheels and start creating bigger wins with less effort.

In today’s episode, Camille breaks down a powerful concept that can bring clarity to anyone feeling overwhelmed by remote work, career changes, or the digital economy. Instead of a one-size-fits-all path, she introduces three distinct “camps” that people naturally fall into. Understanding which one you’re in can help you stop spinning your wheels and start moving forward with confidence. Whether you're starting over, exploring what’s possible, or simply looking to earn extra income, this framework will help you identify your next best step. In this episode, you’ll learn: The 3 camps people fall into when navigating remote work and business How to identify your dominant camp and why it matters Why trying to do everything at once can keep you stuck What path makes the most sense based on your current priorities How your goals may shift over time and why that’s a good thing The 3 Camps: The Reinventor – You’re ready for a true change in identity, skills, or direction The Lifelong Learner – You’re driven by curiosity, growth, and staying engaged The Income Seeker – Your priority is generating income in simple, practical ways No matter where you are, there is a path forward that fits you. Inside Remote Work School™, Camille and her team support all three types, helping you gain clarity, build confidence, and take the next step on your journey.
