I'm here to support you!
From the beginning of my journey, I knew I wanted to work with female entrepreneurs. One of the reasons is because of the amazing support, motivation, empowerment and overall sisterhood that I witnessed and received as I began as an entrepreneur.
Even though I knew I wanted to focus on supporting and empowering other female entrepreneurs, I still struggled to ‘niche down.’ At first, I simply wanted to work with any woman and in any area that interested me. But as the months went on and I continued to try different things and learn more about myself as a business owner, my focus started to shift. After working with some amazing female coaches and OSPs, I realized that I had found the area I wanted to niche into:
I wanted to support women who were making it their mission to support other women. I wanted to continue to build on that sisterhood.
I wanted to work with incredible and badass woman!
Now I focus on helping female coaches, healers and service providers like you in their mission to be the best version of themselves, so they can grow their businesses to thriving levels. I'm here to give my support while you focus on your zone of genius and do what you do best - support more amazing women!

I was born and raised in Ontario, Canada but now you can find me living in a small lake town in Alberta, Canada with my fiance and our cat Spirit. I’m an inspiration seeker who’s happy and hard-working with a passion and desire for learning. Today I’m a Virtual Assistant who's helping others with admin, design, socials and tech support, but that wasn’t always the case…
It's funny how the things you never thought would happen…happen.
I started my professional career as a hairstylist, but after 12 years I left that chapter of my life behind. I moved across the country with my boyfriend to start a new adventure together. I took on a guest service representative role, followed soon after by a sales associate job, and was on a mission to find a new path. And even though I was searching for something new, if you had told me then that my career would shift into the digital space, I would NOT have believed you.
In September 2018, I began exploring the digital world and even started a blog about finding inspiration in the “ordinary” day-to-day. While diving into this new online space, I briefly came across the idea of virtual assisting, but quickly put the idea on the back burner.
Fast forward to March 2019: Life had another surprise for me. I had to take time off work due to medical reasons, and it was driving me nuts. I spent days reading books, Netflix-ing, and surfing the web. Eventually, after days of endless scrolling and boredom searches, I came across a Facebook post about working from home/being a digital nomad. It sounded like it was too good to be true, so (again) I put the idea on the back burner.
Do you believe in signs from the Universe? ‘Cause what happened next was undeniable - and it changed my life.
Universe, Line 1.
The Universe kept dropping hints. This idea of being a VA or having an online business began to show up constantly - in my social media scrolling, my web searches and beyond. It was like the Universe had literally hacked my algorithm!
Those back burner ideas could no longer be ignored. So I did some research. After joining several Facebook groups, something ignited in me. I couldn't get enough! Before I knew it, I was spending large chunks of my time reading and researching, wanting to know all I could about the work and lifestyle of a VA.
All that research paid off and I signed my first client in June 2019!
Although I was thrilled to have signed my first client, I didn’t feel anywhere near ready to go full-time. So I invested in a program to better help me navigate my VA business.
Cue the Universe!
In the early months of 2020, I ended up losing not 1 but 2 part-time jobs. Talk about a HOLY CRAP moment! As bad as it felt at the time, it was everything I needed to say “The hell with it, it’s time to go all in!”
In the end, losing those jobs was by far the best thing that could have happened for me. I had felt ready to expand my business but those jobs were holding me back, keeping me stuck in old thought patterns & behaviours that felt “safe,” which was limiting my growth.
That “loss” was the fuel I needed to light the fire.
Now... The Sky's the Limit!
Since going full-time in my business, I have been consistently booked out since the Summer of 2020. I believe that my prior experience in customer service and my overall passion for supporting my clients has been the main factor behind this success! Since then, my business has grown beyond what I could have ever imagined.
So much so that I ended up hiring my own VA in the Summer of 2020. And by the Fall of 2021, I had hired yet again. I have loved the experience of growing into having a team to support me and am continuously working on new services and offers to expand even more so I can help my clients in new, exciting ways.
If you would have asked me a couple of years ago if I would have considered starting my own business, my answer would have been a strong "Hell no!" But now?
The sky's the limit!
