For some of us, 2020 has removed what little boundaries remained between our professional and personal life. Which is code for having less personal life than we use to have. For some people, it’s Zoom, Eat, Sleep, Repeat. We look at our Fitbit at the end of the day and it reads 300 steps. Literally. We feel guilty if we’re aren’t being productive on email, in meetings, researching something online. Even if we take a bath to relax, we sneakily bring out phones with us so not much has actually changed. To kill it (without being killed by our current work environment) we need to make this our new mantra: Relaxing is a responsibility.
