But hey, it’s “bare-minimum Monday.” Marisa Jo Mayes, a TikTok creator who works for herself, is credited with coining the term and popularizing it.

I’ll do some reading, some journaling, maybe some stuff around the house,” Mayes explained.

Alexander also made the point that bare-minimum Monday isn’t exactly a new thing: “Who hasn’t had a hectic, heavy weekend and found themselves sitting at their desk on a Monday morning thinking, ‘I just need to survive the next eight hours’ and quietly accepting this is not going to be the most dynamic day of their career?”
