In this episode of Founders Future, with host Olivia Sammons, we meet Sonya Mehta, the founder and CEO of Expand Your Capacity Virtual Assistant Agency. Sonya shares her inspiring journey from being a public school teacher and non-profit advocate to building a virtual assistant agency dedicated to helping purpose-driven entrepreneurs. She discusses the pivotal moment she hired her first assistant and realized the transformative power of having a true partner to help reclaim time, scale impact, and end the isolation of being a solopreneur.

Sonya delves into the unique, high-touch model of her agency, which goes beyond simple placement to include curated matching, comprehensive onboarding, and ongoing coaching for both the client and the assistant. She emphasizes the importance of building a values-driven company culture, paying team members well, and fostering long-term partnerships that allow founders to focus on their zone of genius. Sonya also shares her thoughtful approach to steady, aligned growth and her vision for the future, including creating educational content to help even more entrepreneurs expand their capacity.
