I’m having a bit of an identity crisis over here. My first big client Jennifer Allwood kept referring to me as her VA and I finally had to ask her what that meant.

This episode will explain it all and why we are so much more than “just a VA.”   Books mentioned in this episode: Rocket Fuel* by Gino Wickman and Mark C.
