In this episode of Booked Out with Bre, I'm giving you the simple, 3-step roadmap to go from wanting to be a virtual assistant to having a thriving, booked-out business in the next 90 days! We have three months left in the year, and I want you to walk into 2026 with the confidence and income you've been dreaming of.

As a mom who was once knee-deep in motherhood and desperately wanting something of my own, I know how life-changing the virtual assistant industry can be. I'm sharing the exact steps I took to hit 5K in my first full month as a VA, and I'm breaking it all down so you can do it too.
