Tag: “Work & Life”

Your toddler has just found the paint, there’s spaghetti on the walls, and you’re starting to wonder “why did I choose to work from home?”

Due to the great technological advances of recent years, we find ourselves at a moment in history in which we receive an amount of information, both on a personal and professional level, that is impossible to manage in its entirety. This can pose a serious threat to our productivity and even, if we don’t take the right measures, to our mental health.
