I saw a meme that said today was March 97th, and I thought, “Yes! That is exactly what today feels like.” The days are long when you’re quarantined. 

They’re even longer when your mind is anxious, you’re lonely, or you're juggling multiple responsibilities like caring for children and doing your job from home. 

I’ve talked with several people in the past week who when talking about their experience working from home have brought up the feeling of guilt. Immediately, I knew what they were talking about. I’ve felt that burden of guilt related to my work many times in my life, but especially so when I first started working remotely.

When I think about what our world needs right now, I know that it’s definitely not guilt about lack of focus while working from home. So today I’m going to share some helpful tips about how to recognize & stop those feelings of guilt. 

In this episode I’ll be talking about:

Why many people deal with feelings of guilt when they work from homeThe unique pressures contributing to these feelings of guilt because of COVID-19How to manage feelings of guilt, do great work and take care of yourself

Then, I’m answering a listener question from Mingi who asked for advice about improving his interviewing skills, after being offered several interviews, but now job offers.
