Maybe if this was a big company thats established but its a start up company of 2 people, 1 of which is will be on another continent. That's a recipe for disaster. I think its naive of Chelsea to just think she can go remote and maintain the same level of productivity.
The two worked together, naturally at home, doing random meetings during the day at lunch, brainstorm at night,etc... . At the very least, anything they'd do will proceed much slower bc they wont have that same level of access to each other and wont be quick to respond. Again there are only 2 employees. If Kat gets sick or needs a break, Chelsea isnt around to pick up the slack which puts more pressure on her to overwork herself
Also this was Chelsea's dream and Kat quit her job to help make it happen for her. It is not selfish of Kat to want this company suceed and not be left with the brunt of the bulk of the work. Chelsea is very flaky and goes with the wind. If she leaves for Denmark, she's going to lose the motivation to continue and Kat knows that from her experience knowing her. All the in person meetings are going to fall onto her which isnt fair. The business trips will be all on her Chelsea can speak to the creativity and vision behind the designs bc its hers. But if she's on a different time zone, there's alot that just wont work. ChelseaKat is a US based business and they are trying to grow and expand here. There is no way Chelsea is going to be as productive and contribute to the workload for that to happen all the way in Demark
