Angee Robertson, CEO

For the ten years of my life that I worked in the corporate world, I had the unyielding feeling that my gifts and talents were not being utilized to their fullest. This longing began my journey to find my purpose in life.

During those ten years, I had little direction in my life and opted for any available role. I would get up, go to work, come home, and go to bed. Eventually, I developed migraine headaches, lacked energy because I had no purpose and was totally unfulfilled inside.

I finally realized that I needed to search for my purpose, my reason for being. I considered everything from hairdressing to owning an antique shop. The one recurring thought in my head was to work in a job that offered me freedom.

During this in-depth soul searching, my personal coach introduced me to the emerging new profession of Virtual Assistance. As a Virtual Assistant, I could not only use my existing administrative skills but I could also expand my talents and touch many more lives. Best of all, I could be my own boss and perform these tasks in my own home office.

Something inside of me awakened. I just knew I was beginning to fulfill my purpose on this earth, a purpose that would also allow me to help others fulfill their purpose. I enrolled in the 20-week Virtual Training Program through Assist U and eventually graduated. I continued working in my full-time job while building my part-time virtual practice. But this put me back into the same rut from which I was trying to flee.

After much consideration and frustration of trying to achieve my calling, I approached my husband and explained how I was struggling to fulfill my purpose while working full-time.

My husband had sensed my stress and agreed that I should continue on the path of finding my purpose. He supported my decision, and we agreed that I would build my virtual assistant business. We reviewed our finances, prayed, and set a date that I would give notice and leave the corporate world behind. I was excited to finally be on the right path.

The week prior to handing in my resignation, my husband suddenly lost his job. I feared that I had made a mistake in finding my purpose. I was devastated.

My husband and I discussed our options. Much to my surprise, he said he wanted me to continue finding my purpose. After much prayer, we both agreed to continue moving towards what we believed was the correct paths for our lives.

I turned in my two-week notice on faith that it would all come together and make sense. I was afraid we were going to lose the home we had just bought. I was afraid we would struggle without money and it would hurt our marriage. And I was afraid of failing at my calling.

I’m happy to report that 9 years later not only do I still have my practice but my husband is also working with me in the company and has been the last 7 years.

I now know that my purpose is to help women focus on what they enjoy about their business and also help them to focus on themselves as individuals by helping remove from their lives what they don’t enjoy and replace it with ease.

I look forward to supporting you to help free you to focus on what you do best. Click here to learn how I can support you.
