63: Mil Spouse careers that are remote, flexible and not an MLM or scam with TheWFHMilSpo and Marine Corps wife Lauren

Today we are talking to marine corp wife, Lauren who has built a success digital marketing and web design business and has developed a course, for military spouses to help you break into the virtual assistant or virtual marketing assistant space. 

We all know how challenging careers are while navigating military life with constant moves and instability. A lot of mil spouses are turning to remote or virtual careers. 

What if you are thinking this might be for you, but you don’t have any skills! Lauren talks us through starting a VA business, how to set boundaries, hours and salary. Why you might want to start off working for an agency before setting out on your own. 

How do you gain the skills needed to be a VA and can anyone do it? Lauren is incredibly generous in her information and the path she took to get where she is.  I ask her very specific questions like how do I get started? What if I have zero experience? How many hours would I work? What is the typical pay?

If you have thought of starting a career as a VA, today is a must listen episode!
