Rebecca Flansberg was in the Office products industry for 30 years, working for two different companies from a pretty young age. It was a good career, solid and dependable. But she was beginning to feel not only stuck and dissatisfied, but also powerless, trapped by the belief that these were the only skills that she had. The Golden Handcuffs of a well-paid job where she was the major breadwinner for her family, were firmly in place.

Until one day a window opened.

Becky attended a conference where a new possibility opened for her. There was a moment when she saw the skills she did have could be repurposed, when she heard about a blossoming new industry – being a VA, an Online Virtual Assistant. 

“I realised that whatever knowledge you have in your brain, whatever experience you have in your life, there is someone in the world willing to pay you for that! Just start by making a list of everything you know and then begin to focus in on the ideas that light you up. I decided to combine my love of blogging and social media and today, I have a thriving business I run from home”.

Rebecca shares a tonne of strategies, tactics, resources, advice and insights in this deep, wide wholehearted conversation from the need to never stop prospecting and learning to developing multiple streams of income and sparring with your Inner Critic.

If you’ve ever felt the desire to step out of what you are doing now and into something new, but are not sure you “have what it takes”, this conversation would be just the catalyst f possibility that you need!
