    This week I am welcoming Ruth Kilah, a Productivity & Wellbeing Strategist and Founder of Hoxton Hyde. During Ruth’s career as a Senior EA and Project Manager she lived in London and worked in the City. After years of not prioritising her health ruth had to make a big change. I absolutely love the fact that Ruth decided to take such a bold step in prioritising herself and she shares exactly how she decided to do that. Ruth launched Hoxton Hyde because she wanted to help EAs and PAs to become highly productive and strategic business partners by increasing their productivity by helping them focus on their wellbeing.

    Suzie Flynn - Starting the Year Strong

    I'm excited to welcome Suzie Flynn back to the podcast this week. Suzie is a Mindset & Business Coach and she works with Executive Assistants who want to start a Virtual Assistant business as well. The new year brings a barrage of information about how we have to reinvent ourselves, have loads of New Years resolutions and get into a new space mentally and emotionally. So much of this is flawed and we can find ourselves falling short a few days or weeks into the process. When we are thinking about doing anything new in our lives we need tools to help us because things aren’t going to always go to plan. We can self sabotage, feel imposter syndrome and not know how to move forward so we go back to what felt more comfortable and easy for us to cope with. Even if that thing was really uncomfortable in reality. That’s why we’re having this conversation because wherever you are, you can take steps to make the changes that you want. In this episode we talk about: - bringing positivity into the present moment - Self sabotage, why we have it and what purpose it is trying to serve in our lives - Why unconscious patterns run - How to chose a different path - Setting goals and how you can connect with them more deeply If you’d like to connect with Suzie then head to https://suzieflynn.com https://www.facebook.com/groups/growyourvirtualassistantbusinesswithconfidence https://linkedin.com/in/suzieflynn https://suzieflynn.com/va-startup-guide https://suzieflynn.ac-page.com/hidden-money-block Or search Suzie Flynn on LinkedIn

  5. Assistants Together X The Office Management Award Winners 2021

    Assistants Together X The Office Management Award Winners 2021

    This week is a really special episode for any office managers out there or if you’re in a hybrid role where you do some office management because I’m speaking with some of the winners from the first UK based office management awards. Launched by Hana Gray, the Founder of The Office Management Group to create a space where Office Managers can be recognised and celebrated for their work. After finding that all office management awards were given as part of an award ceremony for Assistants, Hana decided to create a unique event specifically for office managers. They’re the first people to be awarded recognition for their contributions to businesses, which, after the last couple of years especially, is so well deserved. I know that office managers have had an incredibly challenging time managing, not only the practical elements of the role but also helping people cope. That’s why it was so great to hear their experiences, not only of this, but also about the future of the office management role. It was great to have the chance to have these conversations and in a way mark a moment in time for the profession and community. Details of how to enter the 2022 awards are included in the episode and of the The Office Management Group Course is included as well. If you want to get in touch with any of the winners, all the details are available below as well as all the links to previous episodes with Hana Gray and details of the course too.

    Monique Helstrom, Change & How to Navigate It

    I had the pleasure of speaking with Monique Helstrom who I am sure many of you know. Monique was the Executive Assistant to Simon Sinek, the New York Times Best Selling Author and TED celebrity. This episode is really about change. Change whether it’s wanted or unwanted can be so difficult to navigate and it was really a pleasure to speak with Monique about her experiences of change in her life. Monique was a workaholic, someone who knew how to work and whose life was defined in many ways by the work she was doing. Being part of such a dynamic movement was incredibly rewarding but there came a time when the 80 hour weeks had to stop. Monique, like many people going through change, was free falling. Today we speak about how Monique redefined her life’s work, the steps she took to create a different life using her unique talents and abilities and how, she believes, anyone can do the same. Enjoy. Just some of the things we speak about in the episode are: 💥Burn out, what it looks like and how to prevent it 💥The reality of working for a celebrity 💥What it’s like to be in an all encompassing role 💥Monique’s journey to becoming an Executive Assistant 💥How she pivoted her career 💥Why Monique loves personality tests 💥How to define and create your career you want 💥Communication and how to make the most of each encounter with other people You can find Monique at www.MoniqueHelstrom.com On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/moniquehelstrom/ On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/moniquejhelstrom/?hl=en And find out more about her communication course, Effective Communication which is available now. Communication is the most important tool we have to connect and collaborate with others. Period.  It affects every aspect of our life, including our relationships, our career projection, our parenting ability, our self-esteem, our level of stress, and yes, our wallet.  If you’re ready to learn the most important skill that no one has ever taught you, then look no further! https://moniquehelstrom.thinkific.com/courses/effectivecommunication
