Who’s behind Productivity Nest?
Hi, I am George Phipps, a 29-year-old corporate worker for a global tech/entertainment company.
I live with my wife and daughters in the San Francisco Bay Area, having recently relocated from the United Kingdom.
I started Productivity Nest because I am passionate about helping parents integrate their careers with their parenting lives. I have over 4 years of experience in remote/hybrid working, juggling life as a new father, and developing my career from a call center role to a Fortune 500 company.
Why Productivity Nest?
Welcome to Productivity Nest, I created this resource to help parents integrate their corporate careers with their parenting lives. We believe in choosing a career that complements the life you want to lead with your family, prioritizing family over career success while still achieving professional growth. Just like the warmth and comfort of a nest, this platform embraces the essence of home, serving as the nurturing ground for your pursuit of work-life integration.
Find practical tips, real-life stories, and a supportive community dedicated to blending corporate career goals with family life from a dad’s perspective.
