Being a single mom 9 to 5 was a daily grind on my mind and soul.
That’s why traditional work structures never fascinated me.
Unfortunately, I had to go for that corporate option for my family’s bread and butter, but it really stifled my creativity.
There was nothing inspiring about it for me. So, I started work from home as a virtual assistant as a side gig.
My first shot as a virtual assistant didn't go so hot.
I messed up, undercharged, and had to go back to a regular job to make ends meet.
All the fuss!
I completed my university diploma in HR, but it didn't really impress anyone, not even me.
I began my career as an assistant by proofreading essays, resumes, and selling notes to my classmates and local businesses while I was in college struggling to cover my tuition costs.
Then I moved up to managing inboxes and calendars for local business owners. I trained them on apps, and set up their backend office work to help them focus on money-making activities, while I was managing their administrative tasks.
At that point, there was a self-revelation to me.
“This is the work I enjoy doing”.
And this made me a virtual assistant.
After 12 cumbersome years of juggling a regular non-thriving job and VA gigs as a side-hustle…I decided to go all-in.
I launched my own brand, Be My Second Brain!
Guess what… it's been a BIG hit!
Within a week, I tripled my business. And in less than 4 months, I was making as much as I did at my old job.
But all thanks to these precious years, they make me able to explore all the back-end systems, operations and processes, which I’m teaching to my mentees now through VA Rising.
I've got the tools and tips to help you succeed.
The digital revolution has changed the landscape of the modern workplace rapidly. We are now witnessing a historic shift from a traditional 9-5 paradigm...to something much broader, filled with great opportunities for everyone who chooses to see them.
