I Thought I Could Do it All-But I Needed a Virtual Assistant

I used to wear every hat in my business.

Emails? Me.
Calendar chaos? Also me.
Client onboarding, admin, invoices, social media captions? Yep... all me.

At first, it felt kind of noble—like I was proving I could “handle it.” But honestly? It was burning me out. I was busy every day, but not always productive. And worse, I was stuck in the weeds of tasks that weren’t moving the needle.

One night, after a long day of clicking between 14 tabs and forgetting to eat lunch again, I asked myself:
“What would it feel like to let someone help?”

That’s when I looked into hiring a Virtual Assistant. I thought it would be complicated or expensive, but it turned out to be one of the most freeing decisions I’ve made in my solopreneur journey.

Here’s what changed for me:

✅ I stopped waking up to inbox anxiety.
✅ I could focus on strategy instead of logistics.
✅ I felt like a business owner again—not just a task manager.

My VA didn’t just “take things off my plate”—they gave me back my mental clarity. That’s something I didn’t expect. When I had less to juggle, I showed up better for my clients, my creativity came back, and I even found time for a few days off (a miracle!).

But, you should do your own research and find one that works for you.

Now, I help others experience that same shift—because solopreneurs deserve support too.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, I see you. There’s no prize for doing everything alone. Delegation is a power move, not a weakness.
