Description

Welcome to The Virtual Assistant School Podcast. I’m your host, Kate, a teacher-turned-entrepreneur, mom of two, and I teach women how to use the skills they already have to make money from home as a virtual assistant.Every Tuesday and Thursday, you’ll get step-by-step strategies, behind-the-scenes insights, and hear honest, unfiltered conversations about making money and growing an online business so you can stop feeling stuck and start taking action toward your goals. Whether you're looking for a flexible side hustle or want to take your business full-time, this podcast is for you! Building a business — or starting something new — can be super overwhelming at times. But here, you don't have to do it alone. 🫶🏻
