Life-Changing Support: Real Stories of Busy Professionals Who Hired Lifestyle Virtual Assistants

Property searches, school admin, and sanity: What our clients actually hand over.

One of our clients, a CEO managing a £12m scaling technology company, came to us feeling torn between professional demands and family life. 

With two children in different schools and a travel schedule that meant missing key moments, the weight of his personal admin was becoming exhausting.

Within the first month of working with his dedicated Lifestyle Virtual Assistant, school emails were streamlined, every important date was in the calendar, holiday camps were booked in advance, and weekend time was freed up entirely and planned thoughtfully. 

We even helped him buy a property for him and his family, taking away hours spent dealing with estate agents, scanning property listings, booking viewings and then supporting the purchase process from surveys to interior designers.

As he told us, 

“Getting 30 hours of my life back every month has been life changing, allowing me to live my life instead of just organising it. I have more time to spend with my friends and loved ones instead of my trusty laptop."

This is what lifestyle support achieves—not just tasks ticked off, but genuinely being present and enjoying your life and time where it matters most.

He added…

“Working with The Lifestyle VA has saved me over a 1000 hours over the past 3 years!”

Our very driven and very busy client Carie, Founder of Seymour PR and her husband started working with us over a year ago. 

After five years of trying to do it all in business and with both her and her husband feeling exhausted managing a home and family with their careers too, Carie realised something crucial: you don’t have to be good at everything.

When we first met she was very honest and said she felt like life was death by a thousand tiny tasks that never got ticked off the home list. 

Wracked with ‘mum guilt’ she felt crazy to be exploring a Virtual Assistant, but she took the leap.

“I recently did the thing women are so often reluctant to do - I admitted that I need help on the home front. Enter Mel and her incredible team. Within a week of working with my wonderful Lifestyle VA, I am feeling more on top of household admin and more able to focus on spending time with my family alongside growing my business.” - Carie

To begin with her husband was sceptical, he’s quite the convert now says Carie.

“My husband absolutely loves our Lifestyle VA. He's said ‘this is life changing.’ I think he's even more of a fan of it than I am!”
