I’ve been working from home for months, and I can’t seem to stop checking work emails even after hours. I want to be more present at home, but my work keeps creeping into my personal time. How do you all set clear boundaries between work and personal life when your home is also your office?

Be strict about working hours. If work ends at 6pm leave it at that, anything after that can be handled the next day. Also don’t have your work email/teams/slack on your personal phone.

Set up quiet hours with your work and let them know family comes 1st. Jobs come and go , but family will always be there. Also turn off alerts on your phone/work hours if needed so you are not tempted.
