Have you ever wanted to just delete all your social media app and never look at your phone again? Well, that was me last month. 😅 And I actually did (for about two weeks) and now I am sharing what I learned and how I am stewarding my time (and technology) moving forward in this episode! | LINKS | ✹ Ready to start your business as a virtual assistant?

One of the main things I coach my 1:1 clients with is marketing and sales and if I had a dime for every time someone said “but I don’t want to be salesy” to me, I would probably be able to retire by now. 😜 Here’s the deal —I get it. No one wants to come off like a slimy car salesman and we aren’t going back to 2017/2018 where we are DMing all our friends from high school (been there, done that). But if you want to make sales and book clients, you have to talk about your offers and services an...

In this episode, I am diving into exactly what it looked like for me to not only become a VA but replace what I was making as a classroom teacher while working a fraction of the time and how you can do it, too! | LINKS | ✹ Take our FREE ...

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.

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

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 t...

This episode’s a little bit different because it is an episode that it recorded with someone else on their podcast and it was so good I wanted to bring it over to this podcast as well. I recorded this episode with Brock Johnson from Social Media Money Makers. We talked about becoming a Virtual Assistant, why I think becoming a VA is such a great opportunity for people who want to earn an income online and so much more.

I have been an entrepreneur for 6.5 years and Your Behind the Scenes BFF® has existed for 2.5 of those years.

We have all seen it – people claiming to have all this freedom when it comes to entrepreneurship but what most don’t show you is how close their laptop is within reach at all times. In today’s episode, I am pulling back the curtain on what it looks like to take a ~real~ vacation as a VA, how you can prep your business and clients to take time off, and how sometimes there is a small (& very much worth it imo) price to pay for the freedom and flexibility that having your own business affor...
