In today's Wholesale Hotline (Astroflipping Edition) Jamil shares a story of how he landed a fully renovated property in Phoenix's Biltmore area for no money out of pocket—and turned it into a massive cash-flowing asset. Show notes -- in this episode we'll cover: How Jamil used a 75% LTV private lender strategy to structure the deal, cover all renovation costs, and even get paid to buy the house. The property's unique layout—including individual entrances for each room and a converted garage—made it a perfect candidate for co-living transformation. Full breakdown of converting a 3 bed/2 bath into a 7 bed/7 bath co-living setup with only $70K in renovations, projected to net $3K–$4K/month in cash flow. Jamil explains why these kinds of deals aren't unicorns—exactly how he found it and structured the deal. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ ☎️ Welcome to Wholesale Hotline & Astro Flipping breakout
In this episode, I dive deep into how overwhelm is actually a safety mechanism for our brain. I explore why we default to feeling overwhelmed when facing challenges or stepping outside our comfort zone. The key insights include understanding that overwhelm is our brain's primitive way of protecting us from perceived danger, which can prevent us from taking action. I share strategies to break through overwhelm, such as:Recognizing it as a defense mechanismBreaking tasks into manageable stepsPrioritizing what matters mostSetting boundariesCreating space for rest and recoveryThe episode provides practical advice for business owners on managing multiple roles, avoiding burnout, and reframing overwhelm as a signal of growth. My goal is to help listeners transform overwhelm from a roadblock into an opportunity for personal and professional development.Want more?

I want to get back to basics a bit today and talk about your virtual assistant website. Whether you have just started your business, are just getting your website together, or have been around a while and want to update yours, in this episode we talk about what you need to focus on to make yours work best for you. It can feel overwhelming at any stage but that's the important thing – is that it actually does what it's supposed to do. So many VAs either avoid building a website entirely, or they slap one together just to say they have one. But here's the truth: your website isn't just a business card. It's a trust builder, a lead qualifier, and, when done right, a quiet salesperson that works 24/7. Today, I want to walk you through what your VA business website should actually include. No fluff, no filler, just the essentials that will help your visitors feel confident enough to take the next step with you. And of course, if you're not sure what your next step should be, you can always work with me on this. Helping VAs build strong, simple websites that speak directly to their ideal clients is something I do often—and it doesn't have to be complicated. If you're in a place where you're updating or building your website and you're not sure if it's doing what it should, I can help. It's the only reason I'm here at all is to help you become a ridiculously good virtual assistant! If you want to work with me or learn more about my coaching, courses, or membership programs, just visit YourVAMentor.com/links. You can start by connecting with me on your favourite social platform. You don't have to do it all at once. You just have to make sure that your site is working for you. It's a marketing tool, not a burden. When you get really clear on what you do, who you help, and why it's important for them to get your help, the website part is actually pretty easy. It's just there to tell them. That's all I've got for you this week. I'm Tracey D'Aviero, The Confidence Coach for VAs and I'll see you next time!

In today's Wholesale Hotline (Astroflipping Edition) Jamil shares a full-circle story of a homeless family he unknowingly displaced through a wholesale deal—and how it sparked his mission to create affordable co-living housing options for those priced out of the market.. Show notes -- in this episode we'll cover: Jamil outlines how co-living offers both community impact and investor upside, turning standard 3-bed homes into 6-7 bedroom cash-flow machines—often yielding 25–32%+ cash-on-cash returns. Why co-living thrives in overlooked areas: homes on busy streets, near public transport, in C & D-class neighborhoods with $2,000+/mo rents for 3/2s, and in cities with 100K+ populations. Breakdowns of real case studies, including converting standard homes with no additions into high-yield co-living properties—netting up to $3,000/month with little to no money left in the deals. Jamil makes a bold call for balance in real estate: “If you take a unit off the market, put one back on.” Investors, he says, have both an opportunity and a responsibility to be part of the solution. ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ ☎️ Welcome to Wholesale Hotline & Astro Flipping breakout
In this episode, I explore the concept of leverage in your business, focusing on strategic time management and maximizing efficiency through automation, delegation, and smart decision-making. Using practical examples, I demonstrate how business owners can optimize their time by targeting warm leads, choosing the most effective social media platforms, and prioritizing outreach strategies. The key is asking, "Where will I get the most leverage?" rather than spreading efforts thin across multiple channels. I emphasize that strategic thinking prevents overwhelm and helps entrepreneurs make more impactful choices by focusing on existing networks, identifying high-engagement platforms, and being intentional about time allocation.

Drawing from her own experiences of burnout and overwhelm, Kris Ward illustrates the importance of recognizing when the demands of entrepreneurship become unsustainable. Ward advocates for the strategic use of virtual assistants (VAs) as a means to reclaim valuable time and energy. By delegating tasks that do not require a business owner's direct involvement, entrepreneurs can focus on high-impact activities that drive growth and innovation. This shift not only alleviates stress but also fosters a healthier work-life balance, allowing individuals to pursue their passions without being weighed down by the minutiae of daily operations. Ward's approach to delegation is rooted in collaboration and empowerment. She emphasizes the necessity of onboarding and training VAs effectively, ensuring they are aligned with the business's vision and values. By encouraging entrepreneurs to trust their teams and embrace a mindset of collaboration, she illustrates how effective delegation can lead to enhanced productivity and creativity. Her insights serve as a powerful reminder that success in business is not solely about individual effort but rather about building a supportive network that drives collective achievement.

Have you ever looked at someone and thought, “Wow, they're just so confident. I wish I had that kind of energy.” Maybe it's a colleague who walks into a room and owns it. Or someone who speaks up in meetings without second-guessing themselves. Or that person at a networking event who seems totally at ease talking to strangers while you're off in the corner pretending to check your email. Have you ever wondered, How do they do that? Like, what do they know that I don't? I want you to know that they're not better than you, they're not more qualified than you, and they're not waiting for someone to give them confidence. They've learned how to create it, and guess what? You can too.

What We Cover In This Episode: How to prepare your business for a virtual assistant before you post for help [4:23] Things to keep in mind when hiring the right VA for your fitness studio [7:51] Where and how to source a VA, including the top platforms available right now [10:06] Why it's important to create quick wins for a confidence and trust boost with your new team member [11:15] The essential tools for VA communication and task management [13:57] What the key metrics are for measuring virtual assistant success [15:03] Quotes: “There's nothing worse than when you try to delegate something and you get to the point where you go, ‘I might as well just do this myself', because sometimes you're wrong, but sometimes you're right. If you're right it's back on your plate, but if you're wrong, you have to hope that the next hire works or it's your fault that it's not working out.” [Nick, 15:24] “The whole reason we're talking about hiring a VA or delegating work is that you are getting [to do] higher value work. So you're able to focus on growth, leadership, member experience, and focus on the things that improve the quality of the studio.” [Nick, 16:25] “A VA is for things that you wish software could do but AI isn't there yet. It's like you could explain exactly what to do and that person could do it.” [Nick, 18:35] LINKS: Episode 291: Do, Delegate, Delete: The Studio Owner's Guide to Choosing VA, Team, or Tech Notion Slack WhatsApp Whale ClickUp Trello Asana Upwork Fiverr Loom Calendly Fitness Business Owners Network (on Facebook) Learn More About All of Our Partners & Get Exclusive Offers Visit the fitDEGREE Knowledge Base Send Megan Your Playlist or Discuss the Podcast Here! fitDEGREE's Business Portal https://calendly.com/fitdegree-support support@fitDEGREE.com https://www.instagram.com/fitdegree/ https://www.instagram.com/fitspot_guru/ https://www.fitdegree.com/blog https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChJ5rK6zWPXjbxtUQx3ys9Q https://www.tiktok.com/@megan_fitdegree

In this week's podcast episode, I'm exploring the concept of "talking back to your brain," revealing how our minds naturally default to negative thoughts as a survival mechanism. I'm diving into how by consciously challenging and reframing unhelpful thought patterns, individuals can reduce stress and overcome self-doubt.The episode delves into understanding automatic negative thoughts and how they influence emotions and actions. I offer practical techniques for interrupting negative thought cycles, including pausing to question the validity of negative thoughts, using thought challenges to examine limiting beliefs, and practicing visualization and thought journaling. I also emphasize that reframing negative thoughts into actionable, positive ones is a skill that can be developed over time. I'm sharing how talking back to your brain is a mental exercise, and I encourage you to start small and gradually increase your capacity to manage thoughts effectively.My key message this week: be conscious of your thoughts and not be afraid to challenge them. Empower yourself to take control of your own mental narrative.Free Resources:Sign up for the FREE mini-course - Your Most Productive WeekFollow Amanda on Instagram

In this episode of Grow a Small Business, host Troy Trewin interviews Francesca Moi, founder of Empowering Virtual Solutions. Francesca shares her journey from starting a business 15 years ago to pivoting three years ago to focus solely on virtual assistants (VAs). Since then, she has grown the company from 1 to 78 full-time equivalent team members, serving over 1,500 clients and generating $1.8 million in revenue. Her business connects Australian companies with skilled VAs from the Philippines, offering services in admin, customer service, and marketing. Francesca highlights the benefits of offshore teams, including better wages and work-life balance for her staff. She also discusses the importance of leadership, time blocking, and continuous professional development, while reflecting on the challenges and lessons of managing fast growth.

Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: 1. What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? Francesca Moi believes the hardest part of growing a small business is managing people during fast growth. As her team expanded rapidly, she found herself in a managerial role she didn't enjoy. Balancing leadership with structured team management became a challenge. She emphasizes the importance of building the right support to complement your strengths. 2. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? Francesca Moi's favorite business book that has helped her the most is "Buy Back Your Time" by Dan Martell. She values it for its practical strategies on delegation and reclaiming time as a business owner. The book deeply resonated with her as she scaled her VA business. It reinforced her belief in building systems and freeing herself from daily operations. 3. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? Francesca Moi recommends listening to Alex Hormozi's podcast and reading his book "$100M Offers", which she found incredibly helpful for refining offers and sales strategies. She also enjoys mindset-focused podcasts like those by Brooke Castillo from The Life Coach School. Francesca believes combining business tactics with personal development is key to sustainable growth. 4. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? Francesca Moi strongly recommends hiring a virtual assistant (VA) as a key tool to grow a small business. She believes VAs help business owners delegate repetitive tasks, free up time, and focus on high-value activities. By building the right support team, entrepreneurs can scale faster and more sustainably. 5. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? Francesca Moi would tell herself on day one: “It's possible.” She emphasizes that in the beginning, she doubted her ability to succeed or even make a single dollar. Her advice is to keep moving forward, trust the process, and believe in your potential—because success comes with persistence.
