87. VA Spotlight Series 2025: How Meghan Braun Built a Niche Virtual Assistant Business & Transformed Her Health

In this episode of Booked Out with Bre, I'm so excited to bring you our next VA Spotlight 2025 feature with the amazing Meghan Braun! Meghan's story is a powerful example of how creating a virtual assistant business can transform not just your career, but your entire life – right down to your health. A year ago, Meghan took a leap of faith, quitting her 15-year corporate career to dive headfirst into the VA world. She was tired of feeling undervalued and wanted the freedom to be truly present for her daughter. What she created is so unique and inspiring! In this conversation, you'll learn: How Meghan navigated the transition from a structured corporate job to the freedom of entrepreneurship. The "aha" moment that led her to combine her passions and create a unique niche: providing virtual assistant services for Amazon Influencers and TikTok Content Creators! How building her own business has given her the ultimate freedom to homeschool her daughter next year. The incredible, life-changing impact this journey has had on her health, allowing her to come off medication for a chronic illness due to reduced stress. Her experience within the VA Leadership Academy and the power of finding a supportive community. Her core belief that anyone can turn their passion into a thriving virtual business. Meghan's story is a beautiful reminder that this path is about so much more than just work; it's about creating a life of freedom, joy, and well-being. If you're looking for a sign that you can do this too, this is it!   Episode Outline: Welcome to the VA Spotlight 2025: Introducing Meghan Braun (01:28) Meghan's Leap of Faith: Leaving the Corporate World for the VA Journey (02:01) Navigating the Transition from Corporate Structure to Entrepreneurial Freedom (03:15) Finding Her Niche: The Amazon Influencer Program (04:00) The "Aha" Moment: Combining Passions to Serve Amazon & TikTok Creators (04:49) The Ultimate "Why": Creating a Life to Be Present for Her Daughter (06:12) The Gift of Freedom: The Ability to Homeschool Her Daughter (07:16) The Power of Community & Support in the VA Leadership Academy (07:46) Meghan's Belief: Everyone Can Turn a Passion into a Virtual Business (09:00) A Glimpse Inside the VAA Program and Current Enrollment Offer (09:20) Meghan's Offer: A Free 30-Minute Session for New VAA Members (11:11) Thinking Bigger: Already Planning to Build a Team After One Year (11:57) The Unexpected Transformation: How Her Health Drastically Improved (12:33) How to Connect with Meghan (13:42) Final Wrap-up (15:11)   Ways to Work with Me:  Follow Me on Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/heyitsbrecain/ Mom X VA Free Facebook Community https://www.facebook.com/groups/momxva Immediate Access to The IT Factor https://app.moonclerk.com/pay/47tfmzrtwkww Become a VA: https://link.fgfunnels.com/widget/form/0cFsPp0jC0zAkvYQ0MMZ   Ways to Work with Megan: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/meghan.braun.2025   If you enjoyed this episode, I would love it so much if you left a rating and review!
