🎧 In today’s episode, we’re talking with our client Carie Barkhuizen, Founder of Seymour PR, about her transformational journey into the world of outsourcing to her new Lifestyle Virtual Assistant.

Spoiler alert: it’s been life-changing for her and her family! 🌟

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 too, Carie realised something crucial: you don’t have to be good at everything. She opens up about the struggle of Mum guilt, learning to let go and hire experts, first at work, and then in her home life.

🏡 The big shift? Carie started working with us and we matched her with her lifestyle VA and it’s been a total game-changer. At first, she felt a little crazy for needing help with everyday things like groceries and school emails, but soon discovered that freeing up her time wasn’t just practical—it was essential.

✨ What we cover in this episode:

• Carie’s journey from feeling overwhelmed to embracing the support of a lifestyle Virtual Assistant
• How outsourcing small tasks has given Carie more time and energy for what truly matters
• The massive relief of letting go of the mental load, especially with the demands of running a business and family
• Why Carie’s husband is now her VA’s biggest fan (hello, life-changing brain space!)
• Carie’s 40th birthday trip and how her VA made it all happen—stress-free!

Whether you’re feeling like you’re drowning in daily to-dos or just curious about what outsourcing can do for you, Carie’s story will inspire you to rethink how you manage your time and maybe even take that leap toward a more balanced life with one of our Lifestyle VAs.

🎙️ Tune in and discover how outsourcing your home life can be your secret weapon to living smarter, not harder!
