Right-Hand Revolution

#7. “I never identified as an entrepreneur. Now, I’m running a VA business!”

Rebecca Morassutti Episode 7

This episode is special because I’m sitting down with Sarah Vied, one of my incredible students, to talk about what it really takes to go from feeling like “just another freelancer” to running a real Virtual Assistant business with confidence, high-value clients, and actual freedom. (And it's our first ever interview! Exciting!)

Sarah’s story is one so many of you will relate to. When she first started her VA business, she didn’t see herself as a business owner. She was charging hourly, taking on any VA client who would pay her, and just hoping for the best. She told herself, “I felt like finding VA clients was kind of a fluke. I didn’t really know how to make that consistent.” And she’s not alone—so many VAs struggle with this exact thing.

Fast forward to now—Sarah has completely shifted her mindset, her strategy, and her income. She stopped relying on low-paying hourly work, ditched the imposter syndrome, and stepped into the role of a business owner. And today, she’s breaking down exactly how she did it.

Inside this episode, we’re covering:

✅ How Sarah transitioned from teaching to starting her VA business (with zero business experience)
✅ The biggest mindset shift that changed how she saw herself and her business
✅ Why charging hourly kept her stuck—and how switching to value-based pricing changed everything
✅ How she found aligned Virtual Assistant clients without relying on job boards or low-paying gigs
✅ The moment she finally felt like a real business owner (and how you can get there too)
✅ Her strategy for finding high-value clients who actually respect her work

Sarah didn’t come into this industry knowing she’d be an entrepreneur. In fact, as she puts it, “I never identified as an entrepreneur before. Now, I actually feel like I’m running a business.”

If you’re stuck in the cycle of low-paying clients, struggling to see yourself as more than “just a VA,” or wondering if it’s really possible to make this work—this episode is going to hit home.
