Work from Home Essentials for the Modern Woman

It has been extremely tough the past year as we navigate working from home to support ourselves and our families. While it is great to be near our loved ones and not have to commute to work, it can be difficult to work from home. There are just way too many distractions!

As we go through the ups and downs of working from home, we’ve come up with a list of essentials to upgrade your experience.
