62. Top 3 Questions Moms Ask About Becoming a Virtual Assistant: How to Book Clients, Balance Business & Family, and Leverage Your Skills

In this episode of Booked Out with Bre, I’m diving into the top three most frequently asked questions I hear from aspiring Virtual Assistants (VAs) and how to overcome the challenges of starting your own VA business. As a mom of three and a thriving six-figure VA business owner, I’m here to show you how you can achieve the same success and live the life you’ve always dreamed of. Whether you're wondering if you have the right skills to be a VA, how to balance business and motherhood, or how to find your dream clients, this episode has you covered.

I’ll share how to leverage your existing network to find clients and why job boards aren’t the only solution. Plus, I’ll walk you through my own journey of discovering the VA industry, booking clients quickly, and the simple steps I used to build a sustainable business.

If you’ve ever doubted your ability to balance a career and motherhood, or if you’re unsure if you have the skills to succeed in the VA world, you’ll get the answers you need to feel empowered and ready to take action.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How to find clients with ease (and why you might already have a dream network).


• The importance of embracing your skills and expertise from day one.


• How to balance your VA business and motherhood without sacrificing your personal life.

Join me as I guide you to book out your VA business and live your biggest, boldest life unapologetically. Don’t forget to tune in for a special announcement about my upcoming free Virtual Assistant Challenge.
