The Virtual Assistant Mama Podcast

Are you a burnt-out working mom and ready to make a new career move outside of your 9-5?

Are you ready to work at home and spend more time with your kids?

Are you wondering if it’s really possible to create a consistent, full-time income from home?

Are you ready for financial freedom, and the ability to afford those family vacations you’ve always dreamed of?

The Virtual Assistant Mama Podcast is hosted by Arianna Vernier, mama and former elementary teacher turned business coach for women who want to create a faith-aligned life of freedom. Arianna was able to quit teaching right after giving birth to her daughter, and began working from home as a Freelancer/Virtual Assistant. Within a very short time she replaced her teaching income, and it is her mission to help other moms do the same so they can be there to witness all of their child’s firsts and build a business that works around their schedule.

On this podcast, Arianna will be sharing tools, tips, and strategies to help you become a Virtual Assistant and take your income to 4-figure months and beyond. Each week, Arianna will share faith-aligned business strategies, tactical tips, and free resources that you can implement into your business and life today, so that you can finally replace your income while working from home. We’ll also share inspiring interviews with other moms and teachers who have successfully quit their 9-5, so they can share their secrets with you on how to start a new business that lights you up. We’re redefining what it means to be a stay at home mom.
