Flex That Worx
Welcome to Flex That Worx, a podcast for anyone building, managing or growing a flexible workspace without making things more complicated than they need to be.
If you're running a single coworking space, juggling multiple locations, or overseeing a growing network of spaces across towns or cities, this is your space. It’s for the operators, managers, decision-makers, the people doing the work to make these places run.
Each week, we’ll share focused, no-fluff episodes with practical insights on how to run a better workspace. We’re talking about smoother operations, happier members, stronger systems, and sustainable growth. Think of it as your shortcut to learning what actually works.
At Baseworx, we work from coworking spaces ourselves. We see the wins, the mess, and everything in between. This podcast is a way for us to share what we’re learning, chatting with the people doing good work in this industry and helping you simplify how you scale.
Episodes are short, so you can fit them into your week easily. You’ll hear from workspace operators, industry experts, and our team. No jargon, no filler. Just useful ideas you can actually apply.

Scaling Your Coworking Space Without Losing What Makes It Work | Flex Rewind | S2 EP18

Scaling a coworking space is a milestone worth pausing over. If you are looking at opening a second location or you already have a handful of spaces running, you have built something that works well enough to grow from. Scaling also tends to come with feelings that rarely get talked about out loud, like the tiredness, the overworked team and the Sunday evening reports that take longer than they should.
In this Flex Rewind, Anne-Marie and Graham discuss what scaling actually looks like from the operator's seat. They talk through why taking stock of what you already have is part of growing well, how to hold space for the fact that every location inside your brand will have its own personality and what to look for in the systems underneath your business so they carry your team well as you grow.
Wherever you are on your scaling journey, this one was made for you.
Key takeaways for coworking & flexible workspace operators:
- Scaling is the reward for a lot of quieter work that came before and it is worth celebrating before adding more
- Looking honestly at the spaces you already run is often where the next stretch of good growth starts
- Every location inside your brand will have its own rhythm and that is part of what keeps a growing brand feeling alive
- The process and tech underneath your business is what holds the brand together as each site takes on its own personality
- The tools you choose at this stage need to support your team, your managers and the people you are reporting to
