Read about me in The New Pittsburgh Courier
I made The Wall Street Journal,
Worked as a waitress, a secretary, and a manager, took orders, followed orders, and gave orders.
Life is grand landed a job with Corporate America, making the big bucks now, stock options, business travel, and all the perks.
I've done all the right things, I've gotten an education, I worked hard and I landed that corporate job. Why oh why do I feel so sad, I should be happy I've got more money now than I've ever had! I have a nice home a husband 2 step daughters and dog and good health too. Im happy at home and all is good but there something that is just not right and something is causing me to lose sleep at night.
The phone rings its the call that most would dread Kirsten you've been downsized no tears came to my head. I rejoiced and and sang, I've been set free to find the perfect life for me.
I research this career I saw so many years ago on Life Time TV a Virtual Assistant is what I'm going to be.
I engaged in training and I'm happy as can be. I'm on my own how scary you see... unemployment has run out and it's all up to me. Thank you God for the loving husband you provided me he has supported and encouraged and been there through it all cheering for and promoting me.
I prayed and focused and success came to me I'm happier now than I ever thought I could be. A Virtual Assistant a Professional Business Owner that would be me. Learn more about my business and me by clicking on the following link:
