First Chapter - Virtual Assistant

Today I received this beautiful testimonial, it made me teary.

Claire was going through a big refresh this year, and she assembled what she dubbed her “A team”. There was new copy written, new website and a whole lot of ideas!

When working with someone, it’s not always about listening to the words they say. It was about seeing what their body language is telling me. Then seeing the passion and motivation return when we build something that truely aligns.

I said to Claire, and I will say it loud so those at the back can hear. Sometimes to need to slow down to speed up.

I can’t wait to see all Claire has cooking come out into the world this year!

To the ones who recommend me, mention me in conversations, or drop my name into a group chat when someone’s looking for support...

Thank you.

I don’t always find it easy to sell myself. So when someone reaches out and says “you were recommended to me,” it honestly means so much.

Your trust, support, and kind words behind the scenes make a bigger difference than you know.

I see you. I appreciate you. And I’m so glad you’re in my corner.

There’s a lot of business advice out there about “not selling your time.”

But here’s the truth. I do sell my time - just not in the way they mean.
I offer packaged hours, usually in blocks of 10.
Not because I can’t price outcomes, but because every project and every person I work with is different.

Working this way means I can:
✔️ Track my actual availability
✔️ Use my best brain hours for deep work
✔️ Avoid over-delivering and undercharging
✔️ Avoid overpromising and under delivering when something takes longer than I expected
✔️ Set clear boundaries around what’s included

And my clients love it too.
They know what they’re getting. They know how much time they have. And they get to use it in a way that works for them.

It might not follow the “rules,” but it works.
And that’s enough for me.

Client Spotlight: Emma – Thrive Therapeutic Play + Family Support

Working with Emma has been an absolute joy.
She’s one of those people whose passion is so genuine, it lights up everything around her.

We redesigned her client resources, built foundational systems for her upcoming program, and started pulling together the threads of a bigger vision - one that’s going to have a serious impact in the social work space.

Watching her excitement grow as we ticked things off was honestly such a privilege. That spark had been waiting, and once we got moving, it came back full force.

And in true Emma style, she also gave me a loving push to raise my prices - because she saw the value in the work we were doing together.

Excited for what’s ahead for her - and so excited to work again with her in 2026!
