VA Spotlight: Princess
Meet Cess, an executive VA working with a client in the finance and real estate industry for the past year. Her story showcases resilience and determination to grow and constantly improve in her career and personal life.
Let’s hear more from Cess!
What difficulties did you experience in your work life before you joined 20four7VA?
Cess: I almost fell into depression. I was clinically diagnosed with mild anxiety that has the potential to become severe.
It was triggered by a series of difficult work experiences—I was scammed by a client.
It wasn’t just about the amount I lost; it deeply affected my trust in people… even in myself.
How did you come across 20four7VA?
Cess: I remember it clearly—I came across a 20four7VA advertisement on a shared Facebook post.
I’ll never forget that night because there was a power outage. I was only using my phone at the time, so I took a quick screenshot. The moment the power came back, I turned on my computer and started my application right away.
What are the top benefits of working with 20four7VA?
Cess:
- On-time weekly payments
- No need to invoice (blessing!)
- Amazing support team & kind account manager
- Training opportunities to grow my skills
- And best of all—feeling valued even while working from home or anywhere!
What are your long-term goals, and how do you see your current role contributing to those goals?
Cess: I’d love to grow into a strategic operations role or even mentor new VAs in 20four7VA someday.
My current role is teaching me how to balance details and big-picture thinking—a great combo!
What are your top 3 remote work tips?
Cess:
- Communicate effectively- Don’t overthink that your frequent updates might be annoying—you’re just being thorough, and the client actually appreciates it!
- Setting boundaries is a must- Treat everyone with respect!
- Stay disciplined- We might think that we know everything, but knowledge is nothing without discipline.
What skill would you want to learn, and why?
Cess: I want to learn more about AI!
Give us a hot take about being a VA
Cess: Being a VA is NOT a “fallback” job—it’s a silent but powerful move.
We’re basically the secret sauce behind thriving teams and companies! So be proud— we’re not just a VA, we’re a Vision in Action! (We get things done right!)
What do you do to unwind after work?
Cess: A little music, a warm drink, and turning off notifications like it’s a ritual.
Oh—and maybe scrolling through cat memes 🐈 while staying somewhere serene with my little family.
Anything else you’d like to share with us?
Cess: I’m just really grateful to be part of a community that empowers remote workers to grow and thrive.
20four7VA doesn’t just connect you with work—the company connects you with purpose!
Thanks for taking the time to speak with us, Cess! 😊
