At school I was fairly ‘middle of the road’.
Definitely not bottom of the class - but definitely not an A* pupil either.

I found school hard too. I can’t say I loved it- like some people can. But, I didn’t hate it either.

But mostly, I always fretted about what other people thought of me.

Fast forward to university and I chose that opportunity to reinvent me.
I wasn’t going to be afraid anymore.
No one knew me.
This was the chance to be confident and finally let the real me out.

And I did. From day one, walking into my student house, I decided to be the confident me. The me I knew was there all along - but was too scared to come out in front of those who’d known me for ever.

Now I am running my own business.
‘Panicking about A-Levels’ me would NEVER have believed I could have done that.

I’m currently working on something really special with a client, and it’s somehow bought back a lot of old emotion. Not in a bad way, but making me really see how far I’ve come.

I am brave enough to challenge thinking. I am bright enough to be asked. And I’m proud enough to say yes.

If ‘School me’ could see me now, I really wonder what she’d say.

How many hats can one Virtual Assistant wear?

One minute, I’m a calendar wizard, magically fitting 25 hours into a day.

The next, I’m a tech troubleshooter, whispering sweet nothings to a stubborn Zoom link, or explaining the ins and outs of how Google Drive works to a Dropbox user.

Before lunch, I’ve been a social media strategist, a data wrangler, a Chief Creative Officer and an inbox tamer (seriously, how many emails?!)

By the afternoon, I’m drafting proposals, chasing invoices, designing decks and reminding myself to drink water, because self-care is important too!

I am a full-blown VA circus act (minus the clown shoes)!

Jokes aside (and cringe photo!), it's actually pretty eye-opening listing out all the hats I wear as a VA 👒🎩🎓⛑️

MASSIVE thanks to my fabulous client, Sally, who crowns my head with a new hat on a fairly regular basis - and then makes me laugh at how many hats I actually wear day-to-day!

Plus, the inspiration behind this ridiculous post!😆

And, kudos to my husband for having so many hats stashed in his wardrobe to allow this post to happen! Who knew!?

“Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it” - Maya Angelou

As I reflect on 7 years in business, I feel incredibly lucky that I love what I do.

I have managed to take an idea and turn it into a career which has grown and flourished over time.

I am also incredibly fortunate to have fallen into the most amazing company of Founders and businesses who all trust me to look after their worlds. I am surrounded by a network of people who lift me, support me and help me achieve more than I thought I could.

As a mum, I feel incredibly lucky too to have created a job that works for me and my family. It’s bigger than I ever imagined it could be - but it is flexible and allows me to be around for my children when they need me.

I am grateful to everyone who has trusted, believed and recommended me! You really have made Flamingo PA what it is today.

Looking to the future, I am excited by what’s next. Who’s next and where I can take this.

Thank you for all your support! 🙏🏼

Happy birthday to me 🎉

Has it become a marketing campaign or is it still meaningful?

There are so many conflicting posts on my timeline this morning - and I did hesitate on how I wanted to mark the day, myself.

So, I decided to focus it on the most important (little) woman in my life.
My daughter, Paige.

She is the main reason I am marking this

I want the world to be more for her.
I want for her.
I want us to for her.

As a female business owner I want to inspire her - because when we inspire each other magical things can happen.

It makes me sad that we even need a marked day to be able to say all of this out loud. It should be commonplace. It should be a reality.
But it is not.

I am incredibly lucky to be able to work with and alongside 8 amazing women at Flamingo PA
That is more than half my client base.

We are each and

By the time Paige is old enough to really understand all this, I hope things are very different.

Networking 🤝

Does it fill you with joy or fill you with dread?

Working virtually I spend the majority of my time in my home office on my own. I don’t have a team - it’s just me.

So when an opportunity to network comes around I really look forward to being able to step outside, work from somewhere else and speak with other people.

But I also occasionally get the fear and can feel nervous about meeting people I don’t know.
Working alone has definitely changed me and I have lost a little confidence in myself when it comes to business events.

But every time I step out of my comfort zone (my little home office) and go to these events, I have the most fun and love engaging with new and interesting people.

So if you’re feeling anxious about an upcoming event, or not sure whether to sign up to a networking opportunity - don’t be.

Give it a go.

You’ll probably end up having a really great day out, the possibility of winning some new business too and a change of scenery - which is definitely good for the soul!
