How Much Time Do You Really Have? | Ep. 10


Listen Later

In this episode of Hire Your VA, Melissa Smith, The PVA, challenges one of the most dangerous assumptions business owners make: believing they have more time than they actually do.

Building on her earlier teaching around time debt, Melissa walks through a sobering but empowering reality check—how many true working days you actually have in a year, and how quickly those days get consumed by commitments, distractions, and reactive work. Melissa explains how reverse planning, calendar blocking, and protecting deep work days can radically change how your business grows, without sacrificing family, health, or clarity.

You’ll learn why:

  • You likely have closer to 200 real working days a year
  • Time scarcity isn’t the problem—misalignment is
  • A VA doesn’t save time, but expands capacity
  • Urgency comes from deadlines you choose, not pressure you inherit
  • Resources:
