Surviving WFH

You’re trying to survive working from home while studying Public Health + building an AI startup

Working from home sounded like a dream… until I realized I needed a whole starter pack just to survive 😂. Between my Public Health degree and my AI in healthcare startup, my days are a mix of lectures, research, coding, and way too many Zoom calls.

My current “WFH survival kit”:

☕ Coffee (my unofficial co-founder)

🩴 Slippers I basically live in

🎧 Noise-cancelling headphones (because neighbors drilling at 9am is my villain origin story)

🍫 Snacks (because studying public health somehow makes me extra hungry)

Honestly, the hardest part for me is separating school and work…they blend into each other. Some days I feel like a visionary building the future of healthcare, and other days I’m just staring at my laptop thinking, why am I like this 😅.

If you work/study from home too, what’s YOUR must-have? I’m curious if anyone else’s survival kit looks as chaotic as mine.
