    Ep. 45: I’m Done Waiting for “Maybe Someday”

    Come hang out with me on Instagram at @hey.lauranicole and share what freedom looks like in your life right now. I’m cheering you on. __________________________________________ This episode is a little different from our usual VA strategy chats. Instead of diving into clients or offers, I’m sharing something more personal - the quiet realization that somewhere between motherhood and business, I stopped doing things just for me. For a long time, “maybe someday” became my default.  Maybe someday I’d pick up that hobby. Maybe someday I’d take that trip. Maybe someday I’d make time.  But recently, I started questioning that pattern and making small changes that feel bigger than I expected. In this episode, I’m talking about what shifted, the tiny ways I’m reclaiming parts of myself, and how building a flexible VA business creates space for a life that isn’t all work and responsibility. If you’ve been feeling a little disconnected from yourself lately, lost in the identity of motherhood, this conversation will feel like a gentle nudge back to you. In this episode, I chat about👇🏻 • The moment I realized I’d been living in “maybe someday” • The small changes I’m making to feel like myself again • How flexibility as a VA supports a fuller life  If this episode resonated, come tell me what your “maybe someday” is over on Instagram at @hey.lauranicole. I’d love to hear it and cheer you on. 💛 What can you expect from this podcast and future episodes? • Bite-sized episodes that give you quick, actionable insights into the Virtual Assistant industry • Learn how to build skills, boost your confidence, and create a profitable VA business Get the show notes and transcription here: https://www.laurajtraining.com/podcast-ep45-im-done-waiting-for-maybe-someday Find Laura on social media: Instagram: @hey.lauranicole TikTok: @hey.lauranicole Facebook: Superstar Assistant Academy Interested in earning sustainable income on YOUR terms, working as a Virtual Assistant?

    Come hang out with me on Instagram at @hey.lauranicole and share what freedom looks like in your life right now. I’m cheering you on. __________________________________________ This episode is a little different than usual. Instead of strategy and step-by-step tactics, I’m sharing something that’s been heavy on my heart lately: gratitude. After walking through a recent family health scare and being able to fully show up for my sister during surgery and recovery, I’ve been reminded in the deepest way why I chose this path.  Being a virtual assistant isn’t just about income. It’s about freedom. It’s about flexibility. It’s about being able to show up for the people who matter most without asking for permission.

    Ep. 41: Being “Booked & Busy” Doesn’t Equal Success as a VA

    Want clients who will gladly pay your rate? The Client Magnet Method shows you how to find and attract them fast. Grab your special podcast discount today! __________________________________________ So many new virtual assistants assume that the more clients they have, the more successful they must be. BUT - what if stacking your client roster is actually pulling you further away from the freedom and flexibility you started this journey for in the first place?? In this episode, I challenge the hustle-driven belief that success equals having as many clients as possible. I explain why a packed schedule can quickly lead to burnout, divided attention, and trading one stressful job for another even if you’re technically working from home. If your goal is more time with your family, less stress, and an income that actually supports your life, this conversation will help you rethink what growth should look like. In this episode, I chat about👇🏻 • Why having more clients is often a vanity metric - and the hidden cost that comes with it • What a sustainable, profitable VA roster actually looks like • How finding aligned, long-term clients creates more income, stability, and peace Ready to attract high-quality clients instead of chasing more work? Grab the Client Magnet Method where I teach you how to identify ideal clients, start genuine conversations, and confidently position your services so you can build a curated roster.

    Ep. 40: Podcast Management 101 for Virtual Assistants

    Ready to transform your existing skills into a profitable virtual assistant business? Join my upcoming Discover Your Superstar VA Skills four-day workshop where I’ll show you what services to offer based on your existing skills! __________________________________________ Podcasting has become such a powerful way for online business owners to get seen and grow their audience but here’s the thing most people don’t realize: the work doesn’t stop when the record button turns off. Behind every episode is a repeatable system of tasks that business owners don’t want to manage themselves… and that’s exactly where you, as a VA, can step in. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on what podcast management as a VA service actually looks like. I’ll break down the tasks you’d handle, what you wouldn’t be responsible for, and why you don’t need to be tech-savvy or have prior podcasting experience to offer this service with confidence. If you love organization, checklists, and behind-the-scenes work, this episode will help you figure out whether podcast management could be a perfect fit for you. In this episode, I chat about👇🏻 • What podcast management really looks like behind the scenes • The key tasks VAs handle once an episode is recorded • Why systems, organization, and follow-through matter more than tech skills Curious what VA services align best with your strengths? My Discover Your Superstar VA Skills 4 Step Workshop helps you turn the skills you already have into services you can confidently offer.

    Ep. 39: Turn 10-15 minute Pockets of Time Into Real VA Income

    Curious if VA work could actually be a fit for you? My free 3-day VA Challenge will help you find out! Register today! __________________________________________ One of the biggest doubts I hear from moms who are considering virtual assistant work isn’t about whether they’re capable, it’s about whether they actually have the time. When your day is broken up into short windows between school drop-offs, meals, naps, and everything else on your plate, it can feel hard to believe those small pockets could ever turn into meaningful income. In this episode, I’m breaking down why you don’t have to wait for long, uninterrupted hours to get started. I’ll walk you through how those quick 10- or 15-minute work sessions can stack up faster than you think, and why shifting your focus to total hours instead of perfectly structured days can completely change how you see what’s possible. If you’ve ever caught yourself wondering how such small bits of time could actually move the needle financially, this conversation will help you look at your schedule differently and see the earning potential that may already be hiding in your day. In this episode, I chat about👇🏻 • How pockets of time throughout your day can add up to consistent weekly income • Why you don’t need long, uninterrupted work blocks to start making money as a VA • How to realistically match your income goals with the time you already have Want help identifying your own pockets of time and turning them into income? Join my free 3-day VA Challenge (January 26–28) where I’ll guide you through mapping your schedule, using your existing skills, and seeing exactly how VA work could fit into your current routine.

    Ep. 38: Not “Techy”? You Can Still Be a Virtual Assistant!

    Curious if VA work could actually be a fit for you? My free 3-day VA Challenge will help you find out. __________________________________________ If you’ve been telling yourself you’re “not techy enough” to become a virtual assistant, I want to clear that up for you in this episode. It’s one of the biggest misconceptions I see holding women back from starting a VA business and it simply isn’t true. I’m breaking down what virtual assistant work actually looks like on a day-to-day basis, the level of tech knowledge clients really expect, and why your soft skills like organization, communication, and reliability are often far more valuable than knowing complicated systems. In this episode, I chat about👇🏻 • Why you don’t need advanced tech skills to become a VA • The real skills clients value most in a virtual assistant • How learnable tools and systems fit into VA work Want help figuring out if VA work is right for you?
