So many women say, “I’d love to start, but I’m not quite ready,” or wait until the timing feels perfect. But as I often remind my clients, readiness isn’t a feeling—it’s something you build through action. This week, I’m chatting with Rachael Davila , founder of Extra Hands Virtual Assistant and author of Hey, Do I Need a VA? . Rachael’s story is a powerful example of what happens when women take that first imperfect step and allow support into their business. In this conversation, we explore: The two (and a half!) types of VAs—and how to know which one you need Why “slowing down” can actually be the smartest growth strategy Learning to trust your intuition and your own timing How to build confidence through doing, not waiting The freedom that comes from asking for help before burnout hits Rachael’s journey beautifully mirrors what I teach: that clarity follows action, and support isn’t a luxury—it’s a strategy. 💻 Connect with Rachael: Website: extrahandsva.com Facebook: Rachael Davila Community: Find a Virtual Assistant Group When’s the last time you did something just for YOU? 🍷✨ Wine Camp 2026 is your chance to escape, sip fabulous local Rieslings, cruise at sunset, laugh around the fire pit, and soak up the magic of New York’s Finger Lakes. 📍 Dates: July 31–August 2, 2026 🏡 Spots are limited, so grab yours now: https://www.pennyforyourshots.com/winecamp Wine Camp 2026 is calling.
