Frequently Asked Questions:

Will all the sessions be recorded?
Yes! Save your seat and you can watch the recordings after they are posted.

I can’t attend all day. Should I still sign up?
Yes! Come when you can!

Do I have to talk on camera? That makes me nervous. 
Nope! You do not ever have to unmute and talk. However, the breakout rooms are very small (3-4 people) and I think you will love getting to know the other members!

How often do you do these events? 
We usually do an online Planning Day in January and June. We host a 2-day in-person Retreat in October.

How should I prepare for this event? 
You’ll get an email to print the workbook before the event. Have pens and highlighters handy.

Make sure your clients know you are busy, your kids are cared for, your pets are happy, and no one needs you.

If you can focus, you’ll get the most out of this event!

"I loved and am grateful for the virtual format since I live far away from Minnesota. The duration and frequency of the breaks was a perfect balance in helping me get brain and movement breaks. For me, I liked the time frame. I felt energized versus wiped out. The time flew by and made me want more!"
Susan S
Retreat Attendee
"I loved the online format. Jen is such a great (and funny!) presenter. I couldn't believe how fast the time flew! It was very productive and so much fun! It was so easy to shift from laughing mode to a serious one. Thank you so much for the tools, info, and knowledge!
“You will leave rejuvenated and focused! It is time away from everything to concentrate on your business. It's amazing what you can discover and plan when you have a few hours of uninterrupted time."
"Being with focused, like-minded business owners is like getting away with your best friends to share and support each other on this VA journey. I enjoyed the break-out rooms, the content covered by Chris and Jen, and the connections that were being nurtured. I love collaboration and brainstorming so this filled my cup! More please! I will attend every Never Alone event offered in the future. Well done."
Marilyn M.
Virtual Assistant
"This is a great way to be motivated and inspired in your business. You'll learn tons of useful information as well as how to set goals for yourself."
“This event helps you stop focusing on the small tasks of the day-to-day and enables you to set larger goals.”

This event is to help YOU focus on the next steps for growing your business
so you can change your family's future!
