Become the VA your clients can’t imagine working without.
EA Kickstart teaches virtual assistants how to think, communicate, and operate like an executive assistant — so you attract better clients, do more meaningful work, and get paid accordingly.
Learn to shift from executing task lists to running the work with your clients.
You’re good at your job. You show up, you deliver, your clients are happy.
But you know there’s another level. The kind of work where you’re not just managing a task list — you’re actually in the thinking with your client. Trusted. Relied on. Genuinely valued.
That’s what EA Kickstart is about.
why i built this
Hey, I’m Rachel.
I spent years as an Executive Assistant before going freelance. I thought that experience would just… carry over. What I didn’t expect was how different the freelance world felt.
The way VA work is set up is almost entirely task-based. And I found myself defaulting to that pattern too. So I started operating the way I always had as an EA. And everything changed.
When I started teaching other VAs and building my own team, I kept seeing the same thing: most VAs had never thought about EA-level work as a path. And nobody was talking about it in the freelance world. So I built something that did.
There’s something deeply fulfilling about this work — using your skills to genuinely take the weight off someone else’s shoulders, from your own home, on your own terms. That’s why I built this. And that’s what I want for you too.
