Working from home wasn’t always as prevalent as it is now. Today, I’m joined by Dr. Frieda Wiley and we discuss the ins and outs of working outside of a traditional office. Whether you’re a work-from-home veteran or you’re new to the experience, this episode has something to help you thrive and, hopefully, feel understood.
Dr. Frieda is a licensed pharmacist-turned-freelance medical writer, consultant, and entrepreneur who has worked from home for more than a decade. Her personal struggles with physical and mental health inspired her to also become the author of her book Telecommuting Psychosis: From Surviving to Thriving While Working in Your Pajama Pants. Her writing can also be found in publications such as O, The Oprah Magazine, US News & World Report, Merck, and the National Institutes of Health.
In this episode, we discuss:
- What it was like working from home before it was popular
- Finding routine as a work from home employee
- Setting clear boundaries and being an advocate for yourself
- The beauty of compassion in work from home situations
- Developing strategies to showcase your work when you’re not in the office
