On paper your business looks great! You’re fully booked (or close to it), your bank balance isn’t looking too shabby and you may even be growing a team …

It’s easy from the outside looking in for other virtual assistants to assume you’re successful, on top of things and freaking loving life!

But the reality couldn’t be further from the truth.

The reality is that you really want to love your business, but you’ve found yourself working ALL the hours, your mental and physical health is suffering, you’re finding it difficult to maintain boundaries and you may have even started to resent some of your more ‘difficult’ clients.

It's a situation we're all too familiar with, so we’re here to tell you how you got yourself in this situation (cos yeah, this one's on you) and the exact steps you need to take to turn things around.

In this episode you’ll learn:

  • What to look at in your business in order to fall back in love with it.
  • Why it’s the people-pleasing VAs amongst us that find themselves in this situation.
  • Why gold plating is costing you money.
  • The boundaries to hold and courageous conversations needed to maintain your health.
