Virtual Assistance for your small business.
Business support that’s practical, human, and flexible, because your business thrives when you do.
Hello, I’m Heather. Corporate escapee, elder millennial, solopreneur, and full time human.
I work as a virtual assistant, but in a way that feels more collaborative and values led than the traditional VA role. These days I focus on project based support rather than ongoing retainers because I’ve learned I do my best work when there’s more space to think, create, and bring my real energy into each client’s business. That space helps me stay present, intuitive, and genuinely useful instead of feeling stretched or rushed.
After more than 20 years in project management and business admin, my natural way of working is about creating ease. I help simplify the messy bits, bring clarity to the parts that feel tangled, and create a sense of calm order that helps people feel a little more at home in their business.
I’m not here to encourage hustle. I’m here for self employed business owners who want to reconnect with themselves, breathe easier, and build a business that actually fits who they are becoming... especially as life shifts and perimenopause asks us to slow down, change direction, or rethink what we want.
I’m also the founder of The PAUSE Network®, a community space for self employed people in perimenopause who want support, meaningful connection, and a reminder that they are not doing this alone.
Business support that grounds and calms

Whether you’re here for business support or seeking a gentler kind of community through The .PAUSE Network, you’ll find the same thing at the core:
Honest partnership. Thoughtful structure. And a quiet reminder that you’re not meant to do this alone.

I am so honoured to have worked / be working with these amazing people!
I take a flexible, human-led approach to all the services I offer, making them fit you and your business.
I work with you to feel:Supported. Heard. Uplifted.
I create a compassionate, non-judgemental space where you can share your ideas, challenges, and goals freely. Through regular check-ins and gentle guidance, you’ll always have someone in your corner.
Validated. Encouraged. Respected.
Your values and vision are at the heart of everything we do. I take the time to deeply understand what matters most to you, so the support you receive is truly aligned and feels good in your gut.

Part of a team. Empowered. Unstuck.
Together, we’ll simplify the chaos by building easy-to-manage systems, streamlining your day-to-day, and setting healthy boundaries. This gives you breathing space for self-care and life outside your business.
I’m here to help you run your business authentically and intentionally, so you can focus on what truly matters – your impact, your clients, and yourself.
“Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.”

Fed up of never being able to find that document?
It’s usually the smallest changes that create the biggest relief — not because they’re clever or complicated, but because they remove that invisible friction your brain has been quietly carrying every single day.
You don’t need to spend hours doing this. Even 25 minute blocks here and there will make things noticeably easier. And if you get part way through and decide you’d rather outsource the logic, structure or file moving - you’ll find info inside the guide on how I can do that for you.
This resource is here to help you feel lighter, clearer, and less trapped by admin. Chaos is not a personality trait and you don’t have to haul it into the new year.
What areas do I cover?
I’m based near Portsmouth on the south coast of England, and work with clients across the UK – from Wales to Cheshire, Devon to Sussex.
Most of our work happens online, but I deeply value real connection. Whenever possible, I meet clients in person – to listen, to understand, and to build a working relationship that feels steady and human..
This blend of virtual support and in-person community creates a slower, more grounded way of working – one that honours your values as much as your to-do list.
