I finally figured it out. (Took me long enough)

Published 3 months ago • 1 min read

Hello Reader,
​
If you’ve followed me for any amount of time, you might’ve noticed I’ve pivoted my business a few times. Honestly? I used to feel a little embarrassed about that.

But here’s the truth—I wasn't being fickle. I was trying to figure it out.
And it took me a while to get here.

Once I (self) diagnosed myself with ADHD, a lot of things made sense. Like why my days felt chaotic even when I was working nonstop. Why traditional systems just didn’t stick. Why I’d crash after over-delivering, then beat myself up for not being consistent.

So I did what most of us do—I tried everything.

And slowly, I started building a business that worked with my brain, not against it. I created workflows, simplified my processes, and ditched the stuff that made me feel like a failure.

Now, after years of testing, tweaking, burning out, recovering, and trying again... I know what actually works.

And I’m finally ready to teach it.

👉 I’m creating a membership just for ADHD Virtual Assistants.
Not watered-down productivity tips from someone who’s never lived in our brains. Real tools. Real support. Real community.

Inside the membership, you’ll get:

  • Courses to help you offer services like social media management
  • Tools and templates for proposals, contracts, and client systems
  • Tutorials on Canva, business platforms, and ADHD-friendly workflows
  • Pricing guidance, client-finding strategies, and real talk support
  • And eventually, a member directory to help you get discovered by clients

Here’s the best part:
💥 Founding members will lock in access for just $27/month. That price will never go up for you, even when it increases to $47/month for everyone else.

If you want first dibs when the doors open (and the founding member rate), join the waitlist here:

It took me years to get here, and I didn’t want to teach this until I had actually lived it. I know what it’s like to feel scattered and stuck—but I also know what’s possible on the other side of that.

And I want to help you get there too.

Howdy Reader, If your whole client strategy is relying on job boards and Facebook posts, we need to talk. Sure, they can work. But here’s the problem — when you’re applying alongside dozens of other VAs, the race to the bottom begins. Lower rates. More competition. And clients who often see you as “just another contractor” instead of a valuable partner. I’ve been there. It’s exhausting. But when I stopped chasing gigs and started building real relationships, everything changed. Clients came...

Hey Reader! You know that feeling when a client seems confused, drops the ball, or goes MIA? It’s frustrating, but it’s not always a client problem. It’s often an onboarding problem. Onboarding isn’t just about gathering logins and asking for brand colors. It’s your chance to set clear expectations, outline boundaries, and teach clients how to work with you. Here’s what that can look like: Be the Guide: Assume your client has no idea how this works (because often, they don’t!). Walk them...
