Ep.82-Delegation, Growth, and Getting Your Time Back with Molly Rose Speed

You Don’t Have to Do It All Alone Let me set the scene: I’m hopping on a Zoom, and somehow I’ve magically become “Patty.” No idea how. Tech gremlins? Maybe. But after a quick identity swap and a good laugh, I got to have one of the most insightful, refreshing conversations with Molly Rose Speed—and I knew immediately this one needed to be shared. Molly is the founder of Virtual Assistant Management and the brains behind a certified virtual assistant training academy that isn’t just about checking boxes—it’s about creating real, reliable, business-ready support for entrepreneurs who are ready to stop juggling it all. Here’s what made this conversation hit home: as solopreneurs, we start businesses to create freedom. To be there for our kids. To pursue our passions. To build something meaningful. But somewhere along the way, we become everything in our business. CEO. Customer service rep. Marketing director. Inbox gatekeeper. Canva designer. Accountant. IT. Travel agent. Sound familiar? Molly knows that story well—because she lived it. She walked away from the corporate cubicle, became a virtual assistant before the world even had a name for it, and built a business that now helps other VAs get certified and matched with entrepreneurs who need their help. What We Covered: The two biggest commodities in business: time and money. Why the VA world is more than just task-ticking—it’s a relationship, a partnership, and yes, even a bit of matchmaking. When you’re actually ready to hire a VA—and when you’re not. How Molly's training ensures VAs are prepared, professional, and passionate about helping your business grow. And how getting just 5 hours a week back can change everything. Molly breaks it down beautifully—if you’re spending $25–$30/hour on a VA, could you be freeing yourself up to go earn $100 in that same hour? Or even better: could you be spending that hour at your kid’s soccer game or NOT replying to emails at midnight? Here’s the thing: delegation isn’t just about scaling. It’s about breathing again. It’s about bringing joy back to your work and clarity back to your days. And if you’re anything like me—running a business, managing family life, and dreaming bigger than your hours allow—you deserve that support.

This isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing better—with help. You’ve got this. And you don’t have to do it alone anymore. 📩 Want more insights like this?
