Not familiar with the concept of body doubling?

Learn more about it, here.

When do these pop up (impromptu) group body double sessions typically happen?

Normal Schmormal is a small independent business run by just one person (Jess), and there are countless brain-sucking administrative tasks that must regularly get done in order for a business like this to keep running. So what? Well, guess who has to force herself regularly to do them, with no one else to pass the buck to? These Pop Up Group Body Double Sessions happen any time Jess’s own ADHD is “acting up” and honestly, she’d just like some group body double time with Schmormals who feel the same way.

Often there is little no notice before a session’s start. Other times, there may be a couple hours of notice. Once in a while there may be a notice of hours! It all depends on Jess’s tasks at hand, her will to do them, and the deadlines for the tasks at hand.

How much do these pop up sessions cost?

These pop up sessions will always be FREE. Consider them a token of Normal Schmormal’s appreciation of YOU! Not to mention that this is a mutually beneficial service because your attendance will equally serve as body doubling for Jess! Woohoo! Everyone wins!

How do I get in on this?

Add your name to the notifications list and receive a text and email alert any time Jess offers one of these free sessions! You can stop text alerts and/or request to be removed from the notifications list at any point with zero hassle or weirdness. Let Jess know ahead of time if you DO NOT WANT TO RECEIVE TEXT alerts. She gets it, seriously.

Then what?

Now you’re all set to receive email and text alerts for all upcoming Pop Up Group Body Double Sessions. These alerts will contain Zoom link info and attendance instructions, along with a rough estimate of start and end time.

If you can’t make that Pop Up, wait for the next alert or schedule a 1:1 body double session, here (these are not free- sorry).

If the Pop Up time works for you, log in at the announced start time to join Jess and any other available Schmormals for 30 minutes of quiet, focused work time (need to send emails? Do laundry? Get some reading done? Way overdue to clean the bathroom? You get the idea).

What if I don’t see any Pop Up alerts but I could use a good free group body double session sooner than later?

Here’s a cool thing: Just text or email Jess and request a Pop Up for when you want one! If it works for Jess too, she’ll put out an alert to everyone on the notification list, then BOOM: You have yourself a free group Pop Up body double session when it works for YOU.

What happens if I’m the only one who responds or can make it to a Pop Up Body Double session?

Don’t worry, Jess will be in the reserved Zoom room for the entirety of that Pop Up, regardless of attendance. There may be 10 attendees, just you, or no one else at all - the show will go on!

Can I join a little late?

Pop in any time during the designated session! Just make sure your Zoom mic is on MUTE so as not to disturb anyone else already working.

NOTE: Don’t be surprised if the occassional session ends up running longer than 30-minutes! Stay as long as you’d like when this happens, or skip out when your brain juice runs out. RESPECT THE FLOW STATE! :)
