Just as you've finally adjusted to working from home, many companies are bringing employees back to work in the office. The transition from fully remote work back to something that resembles a pre-pandemic work environment can be overwhelming, stressful, and scary for a variety of reasons. Whether you've already been back in the office but are still adjusting, or you're gearing up to return in the near future, Woman's Day Editor-in-Chief and author of Your Fully Charged Life, Meaghan Murphy, is sharing her picks for the best back-to-office essentials to help ease the transition.
