Refresh your WFH space

Working from home has its perks, but it takes a little intentionality to create a WFH space that’s functional and productive, especially if you don’t have a room that can serve as a home office. Having clear boundaries is key: Set up a screen divider or a bookcase that can serve as a physical partition between your work area and the rest of the home. If that isn’t doable, try using noise-canceling headphones to send a visual signal that you’re at work.
