Originally from Chicago, Molly currently works and lives in Brooklyn. She has a bachelor’s degree in Fiction Writing from Columbia College Chicago and a master’s in the same area from Sarah Lawrence College. So it’s no wonder that she has such an active imagination.
Her website Alma is geared toward Jewish millennial women, focuses on cultural interest topics, and isn’t afraid to tackle difficult issues in its articles. “It’s important for people to have a place where who they are is being recognized and their level of being Jewish is OK,” Molly told the Pittsburgh Jewish Chronicle. “You don’t have to go to shul, or light candles or keep kosher to be Jewish.”
Though imaginary coworkers are awesome, there are some other things that you can do to make you and your partner happier and more at ease while working from home. For instance, having separate workspaces that are as far away from each other as possible will give you enough room and freedom to avoid annoying each other.
Also, there’s no excuse not to have a wholesome lunch date together anymore! (Not that you really have a choice. Imagine how awkward it would be if you told your partner you had other plans for lockdown lunch.)
Something else that can help out a lot is getting dressed for work to get you into a professional mindset. And don’t forget to buy a pair of noise-canceling headphones for when you need to really focus on that project of yours. If all else fails—blame Cheryl. Get it together, Cheryl!
