You started your business with a fire.
Let's keep it lit.

You started your business for a reason, but somewhere along the way, the day-to-day took over and your spark got buried. I'm Philippa — your extra pair of hands, your sounding board, your team member - there whenever you need me.

MY STORY

I've seen what happens
when passion gets dampened by

overwhelm.

Over more than two decades, I've worked alongside brilliant, driven people — in events, film production, and as a PA/Office Manager.  The same thing kept happening: talented people who loved what they did were drowning in the admin of running a business. I became a freelance PA to fix that. Not just to tick tasks off a list — but to bring back the flexibility, the joy, the autonomy you started your business for in the first place.

-COMMON HESITATIONS

You don't need to have it
all figured out first.

Most business owners think they need tidy, ready-to-hand-over work before calling a PA. They don't. That guilt about needing help? Forget it.

"I don't have regular work to hand over."

That's perfectly fine. We start where you are. The tasks usually reveal themselves once we begin talking.

→ That's what the free consultation is for.

"I'm not sure what I'd even delegate."

The things taking up your headspace at 11pm are a good start. We'll find them together.

→ You're not alone on this journey.

"I feel guilty needing help."

Not everyone is doing it all by themselves — even if it looks that way from the outside.

→ Growing businesses need growing teams.

-WHAT I DO
The things keeping you up at night? That's my bag

Administration & Oragnisation

Inbox management, scheduling, diary management, correspondence, research, and all the things that pile up on your to-do list. I'm methodical so you don't have to be.

Sounding Board & Accountability

Sometimes you don't need a task done — you need someone to think alongside you. I'll keep you accountable for the goals that need your attention.

Events & Personal Support

From organising your business launch to researching the best insurance quotes. Remote or in your office — whatever suits you best. Flexible by design.

-GETTING STARTED

​

Three steps to getting your fire back.

​No lengthy onboarding. No jargon. Just a conversation, and we take it from there.

01

Get in touch

Drop me an email or give me a call. You don't need a perfectly formulated brief — a 'I think I need help but I'm not sure how' is a perfect place to start.

02

Free consultation

We meet — in person or on a call — to talk through what's taking up your time and what would make the biggest difference. No commitment, no pressure.

03

Tailored solution

We work towards your goals, and you pay only for the time you need. Whether that's a few ad hoc hours or regular weekly support — it's always on your terms.

When clients call me a lifesaver, you should see the grin on my face. That's exactly why I do this.

You know what your next step should be

​

A conversation costs nothing. Sometimes, all it takes is saying it out loud to someone who understands, so you know exactly what your next step should be.

-FREE CONSULTATION

Let's talk.

No commitment. Just a friendly chat about where you are and how I can help.
