Assuming you want to route all traffic to your home. I would recommend you look at tail scale. It's an excellent way to set up wire guard with little hassle, and you can route everything to your house.

The difficulty in your scenario, is getting your work laptop to route to your home network. Most Android phones, except calyx OS, Will not share the VPN connection over tethering, over hotspot. I can't speak for iOS but I imagine it's the same.

If you have an extra Android phone, put calyx on it and set up your tail scale VPN to share the network in the network settings.

If you have an open WRT device, or any extra device, you could set up the VPN on that device, and then connect your work lap type through that device, to connect to your home network. https://www.gl-inet.com/ sells nice devies with openwrt preinstalled, but any openwrt device will do.

"GL iNet" has a dizzying array of products and some are designed for this (you can find them for sale on the usual scumbags). Surprisingly, for a niche brand you've likely never heard of the firmware is surprisingly robust and has a small but loyal community. Expensive, and you might not want to carry an extra piece of hardware to provide a bulletproof VPN connection, but worth it for the security IMO.

Unfortunately when you set the hotspot on Android, it doesn't share the VPN. You would need to connect again from the PC or to use an app like "everything proxy" on the phone, then set the laptop to use the phone ip address as a proxy

You can try one of those portable routers that can connect to the Internet via WiFi or cable and configure it with VPN to your house. The work laptop won't know any better !
