After being laid off, I stumbled upon a WrkPod job caravan and took a chance. One year later, I’m thriving under a supportive client, growing personally and professionally while pursuing my master’s degree.
I started as the only virtual assistant for Lung and Sleep—now we’re 32 strong. WrkPod gave me the chance to grow, travel, and thrive in a supportive, well-balanced environment.
Even after many rejections, I kept learning, volunteering, and building my skills to become a VA. Thanks to WrkPod’s support for beginners, I found the perfect client and work-life balance.
From the moment I stepped into the office, I felt warmly welcomed by the WrkPod community. My clients are flexible, the schedule fits my lifestyle, and every day feels exciting—not toxic.
I hope that this story inspires you to keep moving forward. If you have a big dream and are looking for a place to grow and succeed, then WrkPod is the right place for you. It’s the perfect place for me, if it can happen to me then it can happen to you as well.
I got to be interviewed by three clients however I wasn’t culturally fit until my fourth client Paula who is my client now. We actually really hit it off and I was perfect for the role. I eventually realized that because the role was more on the things that I’m happy to work and passionate about which is Digital Arts.
As a dedicated teacher VA, I persevered and was determined to provide for my family. That’s what makes our community so special. I am thankful to WrkPod for helping me be where I am right now.
My journey at WrkPod has been nothing short of life-changing. Thanks to the training, mentorship, and opportunities provided by WrkPod, I’ve evolved from a fisherman buried in debt to a skilled project manager at Australian Fitness Company. It’s a testament to the profound impact WrkPod can have on individuals seeking a brighter future.
My journey from a service crew member to a compliance manager in a New Zealand company is a testament to the transformative power of WrkPod. Despite my initial hesitation due to my lack of experience, my client recognized my potential and valued my contributions, instilling in me a profound sense of usefulness. Today, I am living my dreams, and I owe it all to WrkPod.
I was on the verge of a graduation life crisis last year. The pressure to conform to the corporate world and become a banker, dictated by my college course, weighed heavily on me. However, I chose the path of a VA with WrkPod, enabling me to set my own pace and discover my true potential. Today, I am thriving and constantly pushed beyond my limits by my supportive boss.
I always aspired to be part of a team where personal growth aligned with professional development. When I discovered WrkPod, I recognised it as the platform to make this dream a reality. My boss continually inspires us by reminding us of the ‘why’ behind our work, fostering a productive and fulfilling working relationship.
