How to Launch Your Virtual VA Career
What if the skills you already use every day could help you build a flexible, well-paid career from home?
In this episode of Moms on Cloud Nine, I’m joined by Rachel Green, founder of WOW Moms, to unpack how more women are discovering the freedom and income potential of becoming a Virtual Assistant (VA). Rachel’s story is one that will resonate deeply with anyone who’s ever felt trapped by inflexible work, underpaid roles, or the impossible juggle between parenting and professional growth.
After her daughter was born prematurely, Rachel knew something had to change. She turned her years of experience as a PA into a thriving VA business, matching her corporate income within six months. More importantly, she built a life that allowed her to be present with her children and in control of her own future. That transformation didn’t just stop with her. She now helps women around the world earn their first £1K as VAs and scale well beyond it.
In this conversation, Rachel shares the real story of how to get started as a VA, from the mindset shift required to build confidence to the practical skills that are most in demand right now. We talk about why niching down can raise your income, how to find your first clients (even if you’re introverted), and why resilience is the most underrated business strategy of all.
We also explore the different types of VA roles that exist today, whether it’s admin, social media, tech, podcast management, or even supporting Salesforce systems. It’s not about fitting into a box. It’s about recognising the value of the skills you already have and learning how to market them.
