Course Description


Hi there and welcome to the Nurture Programme.

So, you want to have a successful career on your terms.  You want to create a life that gives you the balance you crave between family, career and personal growth.

You want to build your authentic online business supported by a community of existing high performing business owners and a dedicated coach to help you every step of the way.

Well, come and join our comprehensive training programme that teaches you HOW to run a business and HOW to use your existing skills to ensure you are passionate about what you are doing.

“If you don’t build your dream, someone else will hire you to create theirs”

Our core online business training, the Nurture programme gives you everything (and we mean everything) you need to plan, set up, launch and grow your online business and structure it for success on your terms.

We go much deeper than any other online Virtual Assistant Training courses (and let’s be clear there are lots out there!) and we focus on the person as well as the business.  

As if that wasn’t enough, when you train with us, you have confidence that you are training with an established, respected, trainer whose mission is the same as yours and who has actually walked in the same shoes as you too.

During the course I'll be sharing my step by step journey to creating a profitable VA business - leaving you free to take the action and get creating!

You will get immediate access to the videos, content, downloadable handouts and tasks so that you can study in your own time. There is lifetime access and no time limit for completion.

You can attend from your home to your own schedule from anywhere in the world.

Over 10 modules, 6 months (and some great bonuses) we will cover off my signature system:

  • Understanding you, your passions and your BIG why
  • Self-belief and confidence - how to escape employee mindset and become the CEO in your business
  • Your dream client - who they are, what they want and how to find them
  • Your services, how to package them and charging your worth
  • The essential systems and tech to get you up and running as quickly and smoothly as possible
  • Your must-have core business setup including legalities, insurance and data protection requirements
  • Branding, website, marketing and social media - how to ensure you are visible and attractive online
  • Networking and relationships - building your community and increasing opportunities
  • Survival through self-care and managing difficult situations
  • Planning and vision building - creating the masterplan together

The Nurture Programme will give you the great insight, tools and tips that you need to kick off your VA business and start the journey towards your vision!

And yes, it stands to reason that being a boss I should set boundaries and rules. This will no doubt help with client relationship.
