What I’ve Learned Working from Home
I’ve worked from home since 2009, well before the surge of remote work that occurred during the pandemic.
Over the years, I’ve learned so much–not only professionally, but about myself, setting limits, and much much more. As a homeschooling mom, I freelanced and wrote articles and reviews here and there before taking on a remote job. Landing my first remote editorial job all those years ago while s

If only they would talk to one another and not to me.”
