Maybe you find yourself post divorce, utterly frazzled feeling like you need support but just aren’t sure who to ask or how to go about it?
Whilst this may seem wildly specific, I’m going to share how getting support from a Lifestyle VA after a divorce is such a game changer for you if you’re in this position.
Maybe you’ve figured out shared custody and you’ve got no one to help organise the home like you did before?
And I’m speaking to both Mums and Dads with this one, there are no stereotypes here.
Maybe now you realise that trying to balance this new ‘normal’ is testing your able to juggle in ways you never experienced before.
You might be wondering to yourself, hiring myself a VA seems extravagant! I must be able to figure it all out?
The beauty is if someone can do it for you, better than you and give you brain space and time back to focus on things you’ve been missing out on - why would you not?
One of the biggest upheavals anyone can face in life is a divorce, add to that a whole new way of family life, a business to run too and this transition into a new stage of your life. It can be alot to navigate and there’s no set roadmap for this.
Whilst you emotionally figure out this shift, you might have little people aka wonderful kids who depend on you - whether that’s all the time or some of the time.
So staying on top of their needs as well as yours, well it’s testing and seeking support doesn’t make you a lesser parent, it makes you someone who just wants to be present with them.
So today yes I’m going to be talking about how getting a Lifestyle VA after a divorce can make life feel easier again, how you probably don’t even realise the thousand tiny things you can have taken off your plate.
I’m going to share a few examples of the exact things we’ve helped clients with post divorce and the difference it’s made to them.
I’m sure you wish you could just spend time, fully present with your kids…instead of reading them to sleep whilst panicking that centre parcs is going to be fully booked in the school holidays.
Because this is exactly how we’ve helped one of our clients plan for his time off with his kids, his VA has planned and booked that centre parcs break, even the itineraries are scheduled and pre-booked for him and his family.
Maybe you’ve been through a long process and are finally back out in the dating world, and need a hand planning dates, booking restaurants and weekend getaways…so everything is effortlessly organised.
Let’s face it you definitely don’t have the time to trawl through Timeout finding the best pop up events, date night ideas and restaurant reviews and recommendations do you?
I had a great time coming up with cute date activity ideas for a client, organising and booking it all.
It went down so well, the client confessed to his date that he didn’t organise it, his VA did.
His date thought it was utterly brilliant and appreciated it and even asked him to thank me for her!
Which is extra lovely, because they’re happily in love - call me cupid!
The other side of this is the hundred tiny things to do with life admin that easily get forgotten.
From knowing when you need to and then searching for new home insurance or car insurance quotes, plus remembering to stay on top of car tax, MOT and servicing.
Imagine that your VA has all the reminders set up and she’s actioning searches, providing you options and all you have to do is confirm and the rest is done for you?
I know you’ve probably dashed out to the corner shop desperately hunting for a non-rubbish last minute birthday card for a loved one or friend, because the date’s not in your diary.
Oh and don’t forget the gazillion birthday parties your kid has to go to throughout the year, so many gifts and cards needed and doing that last minute isn’t fun.
Instead, imagine being reminded of loved ones birthdays coming up and having really thoughtful gifts ready in plenty of time to send.
For one of our clients, we ordered in a mixed stack of six year old birthday cards, a handful of gifts and the wrapping paper, so our client simply receives a reminder in her calendar and from her VA that it’s time to pick out a card and gift for the birthday party at the weekend…. and it’s all done.
So instead of mentally worrying about your to do list that isn’t being tackled, wouldn’t it be so nice to know your Lifestyle VA is cracking on with it all?
To have this much support in so many different and wonderful ways, so you can be fully present with your family or loved ones, when you’re with them ?
Our lifestyle VAs can do all of these things with you.
