Lately many of us have found that the boundaries of home and business have now become blurred. As a result we maybe having difficulty managing expectations for ourself and our colleagues when it comes to delivering on work product or project. Even worse after living in a state of uncertainty for months now, we can be struggling with how to cope with the constant (and often unpredictable) changes in the workplace. It often feels some many things are outside of our control, which can lead to constant stress and anxiety. Though there are many perks from working from home, our homes may be presenting a whole host of distractions. At the end of the day we may struggle to maintain focus and concentration causing our productivity to suffer.

To help you better handle this new work place norm, I’ll be having a conversation with psychologist and the founder/president of BEW Consulting & Training LLC, Dr Brooke Wachtler, Psy D live on Instagram. BEW is a specialized professional development consultancy service that offers companies a psychologically informed approach to professional development training. The BEW approach provides research-based strategies to address skills such as: communication, time management, work/life integration, and stress management. What Brooke finds even more important though, is helping people to recognize how their mindset directly impacts their successes and difficulties in the workplace.

This is my fifth installment of “Mental Health Mondays.” Each Monday I will be having a conversation with my favorite mental health therapists so that you can better navigate emotionally and mentally during these very stressful times.
