Donielle Jopko didn't build her company from a highlight reel—she built it through real life. In this episode, Alyssa sits down with the founder of Work Life Solutions Concierge to talk about the unglamorous, gritty side of entrepreneurship: starting a business while working full time, surviving abuse and a painful divorce, caregiving through trauma, and still finding a way to keep going.
Donielle shares how her background in paralegal work, project management, and HR shaped the way she serves clients today—and why her business evolved far beyond "concierge" into a powerful support system for corporate events, project support, and relocation management. She breaks down her "umbrella" philosophy: how helping people at home and in the community connects directly to business outcomes like retention, productivity, and burnout prevention.
You'll also hear the story of her first client (still with her 8 years later), how networking sparked her earliest growth, what it really felt like to take the leap from corporate to full-time founder, and the tiny moments—like a card from a client or $3 on the ground—that keep her from quitting.
