Working from home is a tricky balance of focus, productivity, and boundaries. And when you don’t have the luxury of leaving work at the office, it can be hard to turn off.

Despite all of its perks, working from home produces many challenges, like difficulty focusing, a lack of work-life balance, and less time for self-care — and these challenges can affect our mental health.

So how do we avoid work-from-home fatigue?

Stack Overflow’s Kenzi Tobyne (Customer Success Leader) and Roberta Arcoverde (Director of Engineering) will be joining us to discuss some of the best ways to avoid burnout and unhealthy work-from-home situations.

In this discussion you will learn:

  • Tips and tricks to establishing a healthy work-life balance
