When Mark chooses to "sever" his work self from his home self in Apple TV's hit show Severance, it reveals a workplace fantasy many secretly share: what if you could leave your work baggage at the office and your personal troubles at home?

Are we all performing different versions of ourselves throughout the day? And in a world where work-life boundaries continue to blur, would the ultimate separation actually be a relief?
