Highlights
07:23 – I did apply for a job and they said “You're overqualified for this position” and I had a light bulb moment that I could start a business that does this.
09:31 – Now I'm taking home a decent salary, but still not where I want to be, but it's still something that I can be proud of.
11:57 – So the number one thing to think about is that you need to know what you need first.
14:23 – A lot of people do want to work in remote, flexible jobs and we want the best of the best, so aligning for values is the main thing. Skills can be learned, especially if you’re resourceful.
28:47 – My mission statement is “500 virtual assistants have sustainable jobs and we want to support entrepreneurs to thrive and not experience burn out.”
