Welcome back to School's Over, Now What? Today we have Brittany Bettini with your host Shawn Anthony.

In this candid episode, entrepreneur and VA industry leader Brittany shares how building a team of virtual assistants has helped her—and countless other business owners—escape burnout, scale smarter, and live a life of freedom.

Brittany challenges the hustle culture mindset, explaining why trying to do everything yourself is a fast track to resentment and exhaustion. From training VAs to think critically and take initiative, to giving them growth opportunities and even healthcare, Brittany shows what it looks like to lead with empathy and strategy.

She also reveals the unconventional ways she uses VAs in her business—delegating not just admin work, but also research, learning, and leadership. You’ll hear how she built a culture of loyalty and longevity within her remote team, and why investing in people > relying on AI will define the future of successful businesses.

Whether you're a solopreneur, creative, coach, or agency owner, this episode is packed with mindset shifts, tactical advice, and inspiring real-world stories to help you build the team and business that serves your life—not the other way around.

In today's episode Shawn sits down to be interviewed by Derrick Kinney of Good Money Podcast.

SHOW NOTES:
Is your business struggling to stand out and get noticed by the right people at the right time on social media? You probably don’t have a product or service problem. You have a messaging and marketing problem—and my guest Shawn Anthony is going to help you fix it.

Shawn is the host of the School’s Over, Now What? Podcast and helps students and professionals across the country identify their unique skills and market themselves so they create the business they’ve always wanted.

Today, Shawn reveals how if you’re not embracing the messy parts of your business, you’re missing out on more clients and attention on social media. (Yes, you can use mistakes as content that people actually like!) There’s a reason Shawn’s lowest quality production content is actually his most popular—and he’s going to tell you why. Plus, Shawn shares his key productivity hack that saves him an extra two hours a day and how asking for feedback created some of his biggest and best business ideas.
