TCDI could be the place for you. Kimber and Caragh Landry, President of Litigation Services at TCDI, sit down to talk about what exactly it is that TCDI provides to their clients and how their commitment to hiring military spouses happened after they accidentally hired a milspouse and started to learn what a powerful community they could tap into. TCDI (Technology Concepts & Design) has been helping corporate and law firm clients with legal and cyber services for the past 30 years. They provide a wide range of litigation support services, including outsourced services such as document review, litigation coding, data entry, marketing, and finance opportunities. They focus on helping legal departments function. While they are part of the virtual workforce, they also have offices in Greensboro, NC and Cleveland, OH. Recently, TCDI launched Military Spouse Managed Review (MSMR). This program offers reliable and flexible career opportunities for milspouses while also creating a diverse pool of qualified, adaptable and experienced reviewers for TCDI clients. One skill you may not even realize you have as a milspouse, that will definitely come in handy if applying to TCDI, is familiarity with information security. Because of our military lifestyle, we are used to dealing with and managing sensitive information (#OPSEC). Kara points out that milspouses tend to show a much higher commitment to data security. It is almost innate to us and is a soft skill that TCDI doesn’t have to work to explain or train. The only way to hear all of the tips for applying that Caragh has to offer, as well as how VirtForce is helping our community find opportunities with TCDI, is to listen to the full episode!

Show Notes | December 19, 2019 | Episode 011 Let’s Talk Taxes Understanding taxes is a foreign concept to most of us. Host Kimber sat down with taxation expert Brandyn Cox from BMC Accounting LLC to discuss 1099 contractors, W2 employees, the Military Spouse Residency Relief Act, and so much more! Brandyn dives into understanding the difference between a W2 wage employee and a 1099 Independent Contractor as well as what you need to know about the two when it comes to filing your taxes.

What does it mean to work remotely? Will I have to commute to an office? What is the difference between a 1099 contract and a W2 position? Quite frankly, these questions will scare you out of the opportunity to work in a virtual environment if you don’t have the resources that can properly answer your questions. Today’s episode will provide helpful insight on what it means to be a W2 employee, 1099 Independent Contractor, and most importantly the tools needed to help you prepare for filing. VirtForce founder and podcast host Kimber sat down to talk with Army veteran and amazing accounting professional Brandyn Cox of BMC Accounting LLC, to talk all things taxes. Don’t worry, we made sure to leave out all of the things that make you cringe when you hear taxes. Instead we are talking Military Spouse Residency Relief Act, an exciting educational master class available to our VirtForce members, LLC versus S-Corporation for your business, and so much more. Brandyn was a military police officer in the U.S. Army before he developed an interest in accounting.In 2017 BMC Accounting LLC was born. Brandyn wanted to focus on convenience, value, and affordability for small business owners, not knowing this would turn into a national business with clients in 40 states. Since 2017, Brandyn has helped countless service members and milspouses with tax preparation and has taught them how they can be better prepared moving forward. In this episode, Brandyn talks about how to avoid tax penalties, W2 vs 1099 Independent Contractor, rental properties, and how they can be a good thing for your taxes. Now, I’m sure you’re wondering what all of this means and how does it affect you when it’s time to file taxes. One topic that is really important to everyone, but more specifically the milSpouses and veteran community, is understanding the difference between a W2 employee and a 1099 Independent Contractor position. When a company lists a position, they’ve already decided if it will be a W2 or 1099 position. You don’t get to choose which type of position you want.

Show Notes | December 12, 2019 | Episode 010 You Are What You Speak We all struggle with self-doubt. This week’s episode provides us with the tools and resources needed on how we can reprogram our mind to have architect vocabulary instead of conflict vocabulary. We have all been in a situation where we have talked ourselves out of an opportunity or have experienced self sabotage. TEDx speaker Mark England discusses procabulary and the impact it can have on us when we take away conflict words and replace them with architect words instead. If you are a new listener to VirtForce Podcast, we would love to hear from you. Please visit our Contact Page and let us know how we can help you today!

Our vocabulary is such a big part of who we are and has a big impact on how we view our life and what’s happening around us. So much so, that we are what we speak. What if I told you there was a way that we can change our vocabulary to help us change our mindset? In today’s episode, that is exactly what we are talking about. We discuss conflict vs. architect vocabulary, the kind of impact those words have on our daily life, and most importantly how we can change our vocabulary to Procabulary. VirtForce had the amazing opportunity to shine this week’s spotlight on Mark England. Podcast host Kimber sat down with Mark to discuss procabulary and how we can transform our mindset to talk like a professional. Mark is a TEDx speaker, with a background of business and international education where he uses his skills to help others. He has professionally coached thousands and transforming the lives of so many with the strategy he uses in his courses. As we get ready to close out this year, this decade, listen closely as Mark shares a few gems with our VirtForce community. We want you to use these gems and apply them to your goals for 2020. May they be big or small, there is no right or wrong. Change your perspective on how you view your life, by changing the way you talk to yourself. We want you to use your words to not only influence yourself but those who are around you. Our challenge for you, at the end of this episode, is to start thinking about your goals for 2020. Ensure that your goals are reflecting architect vocabulary, using words of affirmation that make you feel happy. Remember, we’re working on building ourselves up. If making a goal for the entire year makes you anxious try making small monthly goals. Once you’ve been able to accomplish your monthly goals, start thinking of expanding your timelines and thinking of different ways to achieve your aspirations. Make sure to listen and subscribe so you don’t miss things like virtual spotlights and interviews with military influencers!

We are diving into a deep discussion with VirtForce Power Partner, Instant Teams! Kimber talks with Kara Smith, who is the Director of Customer Operations for Instant Teams. As an Army spouse and seven year remote career veteran, Kara is a subject matter expert on remote work and personal life balance. If you are a new listener to VirtForce Podcast, we would love to hear from you. Please visit our Contact Page and let us know how we can help you today!

VirtForce on Facebook VirtForce on LinkedIn Check Out More VirtForce Programming Live Q&A With Career Coach, Kristen Earp How MilSpouses Can Take A Step into Remote Work Launching a Career in IT When You Do Not Have A Degree How VetForce Can Help Military Spouses Launch A Career in Tech Blog Post We’ve all been at the point where we didn’t realize that virtual work was an option or a possibility for us. On top of that, as military spouses our community is often times overlooked because employers think we don’t have the necessary skills because we move so often. If you are looking for inspiration, or for something to light a fire in you to finally make that leap into remote work, this is the episode for you. We are diving into a deep discussion with VirtForce Power Partner, Instant Teams! Kimber talks with Kara Smith, Director of Customer Operations for Instant Teams (previously MadSkills). As an Army spouse and seven year remote career veteran, Kara is a subject matter expert on remote work and personal life balance. As active duty milspouses, we need portable jobs in order to maintain careers. We want to PCS and know that our professional life is one thing that will remain constant. There is so much out of your control not only with virtual careers, but in the military lifestyle. It is incredibly easy to get into a negative mindset and think things like “I’m not worthy of this position” or “they’re going to judge me for being a milspouse.” Kara recommends owning what your life is. Do you like your life? Show that! Be honest with your potential employer and talk about your journey and what has brought you to remote work. “If there’s one thing I can say to anyone applying for remote positions: Don’t have the mindset that I did. Think like you’re going to get it and let the person on the other end know that you want it. It’s definitely possible,” says Kara. Basically, you should be treating every opportunity like it is the opportunity you are going to get. So what is Instant Teams? They build remote teams for their customers, who may have never worked with a virtual team before. They also focus on building up the culture of a remote workspace. As an organization, Instant Teams prioritizes encouraging people and building them up while cultivating relationships with both talent and customers. One of the best things about Instant Teams is that they are CONUS and OCONUS friendly. If you are interested in being a part of their team, the first thing you absolutely need to do is fill out a profile (Click on Join As Talent, make an account, and get to work on filling out your profile). This is the best way to reach Instant Teams and makes the matching process easier and more efficient. Because the profile is your first introduction to Instant Teams,

Writers Guild Registration – www.wgawregistry.org U.S. Copyright Office - www.copyright.gov Podcast available on iTunes All Material copyright (c) Mark Sevi WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS PODCAST? I record on computer through Audacity and output to a standalone PCM digital recorder. This provides two different forms of backup for the 'cast - Toby conceived this scheme and he did it right. We do have different equipment to do this and usually it's not a problem. I have a PC and a Zoom H2 - the previous three podcasts were done using this equipment. On the last podcast, I was getting this annoying clicking on the computer version so I just used the digital recording version - worked great! This time the roof fell in. The recorder I was using just died - it was supposed to be on AC but it thought it was on batteries so it died instantly after I started the recording and I didn't realize it until I looked and the recorder was dark. So the first five minutes of the podcast were lost on the digital recorder. Normally this would not be much of an issue but I could not get the PC and Audacity to go to stereo so my only source of stereo was the recorder - which was missing the first five minutes of the 'cast. I had the whole podcast on the computer in mono which is not great to edit because we split the mics left and right to be able to edit out issues easily. Plus, and I am still puzzled by this, the only level that was good mic-wise was my mic. I had to boost both Jeff and Larry's mics tremendously after the fact in order to be heard. Boosting an audio signal is never good if you don't have anything reasonable to begin with. It just goes pear-shaped. That's why it sounds, at times, as if they are being punched into the audio stream from a bathroom. I promise they were both present in the room - it just doesn't sound that way. I edited the first five minutes of the podcast from the computer (in mono) and then joined it to the stereo portion of the digital recorder that had really low mic levels for Jeff and Larry. And actually, neither the H2 nor the PC had any sort of reasonable mic levels so it must have been something on the Mackie board that I did wrong. Still checking that. The result is so over-processed it sounds like I'm using a phase shifter on the podcast which isn't hard to imagin...

To add to the woes, although we've recorded at this venue in the past, this time the nearby airport must have been landing and launching F-16s and C-17s because every ten minutes or so you can hear this low rumble through the mics. Sigh... I've purchased a new (used) H5 and I will solve the Audacity problem by maybe going to Adobe Audition for the recording and editing. In any case I promise not to ever do this again. Maybe.
