In today's episode, I’m breaking down exactly what virtual assistants do, what clients are really looking for, and why you're actually more qualified than you think! 👀

What even is a virtual assistant—and how do you actually make money as one?

In this episode, I’m breaking down what a virtual assistant is, why it's one of the best (read: the best 😉) side hustles or online businesses you can start, and how you can actually use the skills you already have to make money as a VA by booking clients!

In this episode, I’m diving into the transformation that was 2024! 

From committing to mastering my sales skills (best decision ever!) to starting 2025 with a fresh mindset and a brand-new word of the year🫣, it’s been a ride. 

I’m all about dreaming bigger, changing paths when you’re not feeling it, and reminding you that you don’t have to pick just one thing in life. 

 Oh, and did I mention I finally started outsourcing more (yep, I actually listened to my own advice!)? 

Tune in for a fun chat about growth, family, and becoming the best version of ourselves so we can show up for the people we love! 🫶🏼

We are back from our holiday break and because we have so many new listeners on the podcast, we wanted to share a popular episode from back in 2023 to bust some myths about becoming a virtual assistant!

For an industry that's been around for many years, being a virtual assistant still to this day has many assumptions that simply aren't true! 

Let's talk about that age-old misunderstanding about being available 24/7 for your client. (Sounds exhausting, amirite?) Or is it even possible for VAs to make good money? Should you take just anyone and everyone as a client when you're just starting out? 

In this episode, we are going to debunk some of those myths and get down to the nitty-gritty of exactly what being a virtual assistant is all about! 🎧

Is it just me or does it feel like no one talks about what it's really like building a business and being a mom? If you have been following me for 2 seconds, you know I am a huge proponent of building a business while raising babies, but that doesn't mean it doesn't come with challenges. 😅

One of those challenges is childcare and what to do when you have limited time to focus on growing you small (but mighty) business. I've been having a lot of conversations lately about what it looks like to build a business with limited childcare so I wanted to share what it's looked like for me over the last almost 4 years of being a mom and an entrepreneur!

If you feel like you were a little blindsided by what "naptime hustle" really looks like (like what happens when they simply... don't nap? lololol) and you are curious about how you can get creative with childcare while growing your business, this episode is for you! 🎧
