EXACTLY WHERE TO START IS AN INTERESTING QUESTION.
It was REALLY confusing for me when I did it back in 2017. I didn’t have anyone else to look up to that had done what I wanted to do, there was no clear roadmap, and I was literally figuring it out on my own one step at a time (well, and with my bestie Google of course).
And while I’m SO PROUD of that version of myself with the baby on her hip and the phone in her hand, I gotta tell you… it wasn’t pretty.
It looked like a lot of stress, a lot of wondering if I was “doing the right thing”, and a whole lot of crying to my husband that I just wished there was someone who could point me in the right direction (especially in those early days).
Been there, done that, and also worked for a TON of coaches.
One of the decisions I made was that if and when I figured all this stuff out, that I’d make it WAY more accessible for the women who came after me to do the same.
And that’s exactly what I’ve done.
Why?
→ Because it was what I needed, and didn’t have.
→ Because while I love helping other people in their businesses, what I really love the most is empowering other women to build their own.
→ And finally… because I just love me a system that WORKS, ya know what I mean?
In 2018, I started mentoring other women to build their own Virtual Assistant business, and honestly? The results were INSANE. Over the last two years I’ve helped my clients to:
- Go from 0 clients to a full roster with $5K+ months in less than 2 months
- Have their first $100,000 year as a Virtual Assistant
- Build profitable businesses working nap-time hours
- Triple their monthly income in 2 weeks
- Have so much work they retired their partners from their corporate jobs and brought them on in their business
But the problem is when you get results like that you get full REAL fast (I mean, great problem to have, but when you’re here to make an impact on as many women as possible it kind of cramps your style).
Finally, after lots of women coming to me that I simply had to turn away I decided to make something that EVERY single person that wanted to start their own VA business, and have the amazing results my clients and I get, could have access to.
Been there, done that, and also worked for a TON of coaches.
And that’s where THE START comes in.
I’ve taken...
EVERY. SINGLE. THING.
I’ve learned from building my own business and spending the last two years helping other women do the same and put it into a single system (The Start) that will help you start and grow your business in record time.
- No late nights with Google.
- No crying to your partner.
- No wondering if you’re doing it “right”.
- How about just KNOWING exactly what to do to get the result you want?
I got you.
It’s been my mission to teach other women the essentials for creating a thriving Virtual Assistant business of their own. One that allows you to be more than just an overwhelmed worker bee. Where you can be the dedicated mama bear, the loving wife, the nurturing best friend, the amazing dog parent, the supportive sister, the part-time yogi — where your business is an extension of your life, not the whole darn thing.
But to be honest…
…when I began teaching The Start I was worried women going through it wouldn’t get the same great results as the women I’d been mentoring and teaching personally. I mean, surely I was the magic right?!
Turns out, not exactly true (though I still think I’m pretty wonderful).
- The MAGIC is in a system that actually works.
- The magic is in this information being in the hands of the right women.
And the magic got them results like this (and in 6 weeks flat, no less):
“WITHIN A MONTH OF FINISHING THE PROGRAM, I OFFICIALLY LEFT MY 9-5.
This program will give you everything you need to get started as a Virtual Assistant ASAP.
During The Start, I became more confident in pitching myself because I felt like my business was real. Because of that, I booked a paying client while I was still in the program.
My plan was to use the tools I learned in the program to set myself up for success from the beginning and make this business my full-time career.
Within a month of finishing the program, I officially left my 9-5. And now just 6 short months after beginning The Start I have a booked out roster of clients, just had my biggest month in business yet at $8K and have Discovery Calls still rolling in. I’m in the process of hiring my first intern to keep my business running while I’m on maternity leave.
I am so glad I decided to start my VA business with the support of The Start and 100% recommend it to everyone I know.”

YOU’RE LITERALLY HANDED TO TOOLS TO HAVE A SUCCESSFUL DONE-FOR-YOU SERVICE
While in The Start program I realized that I was charging too low for my done for you services. Sara provided templates for us to literally explore our reservoirs of skills, experience, and passions. With this information, I was able to formulate high-ticket service offerings that brought in ideal clients that had no problem paying top tier rates.
I can say without hesitation that Sara has a way of empowering you with both information and motivation. If you take The Start you’re literally handed the tools to have a successful done-for-you service, but often the mind-fog gets in the way of you actually succeeding or even executing. Sara (The Start) debunks the limiting myths that we so often tell ourselves and empowers us with tools to “see it” for ourselves. While I’m grateful for the content, I’m most grateful that I now have the absolute confidence that I can have a very successful done-for-you service that works for me completely.

I ACTUALLY CREATED A BUSINESS FROM GROUND ZERO WITH THE START!
I officially have a name and a package of services to offer & it’s really exciting! I liked how the information was given each week in manageable increments. A lot of VA’s starting out have other full time jobs, careers and families. The Start’s 6 week course was the perfect amount of time to implement each lesson, leaving you feeling accomplished and motivated to continue!
During The Start I actually had 2 discovery calls and booked a client! The Start has given me the confidence to sell my services, believe in my value & go out there and get it!

Remember when I said that I wasn't about going into serious debt to start a business? This is where I put my money where my mouth is and the reason I made this program super affordable.
