The Unseen Work: Why I'm Rebuilding That Virtual Life from the Ground Up

Jul 18, 2025

Let’s get real for a second.

If you’ve ever tried to build something for yourself—whether it’s a business, a new career, or just a better life—you already know: it’s not all flat lays, filtered sunsets, and perfect morning routines.

I haven’t been in your inbox or your feed as much lately.
Not because I gave up—but because I knew I couldn’t keep doing this halfway.

I needed to step back to see the bigger picture. To ask the hard questions:

  • Who am I building this for?

  • What do they really need?

  • And what do I need to make this sustainable for me, too?

Burnout is real. And for a while, I was running so fast I forgot why I started.

That Virtual Life has always been about helping others transition into something better.
Something more aligned.
Something that lets you work from anywhere without losing who you are in the process.

But I wanted to do more than just “help.” I wanted to equip, empower, and elevate.So I’ve been working on:
New digital products to help you go from stuck to scalable
Supportive resources for aspiring and growing VAs
Real conversations about what this journey really takes—and why it’s still worth it

This is hard.

Not because you’re doing it wrong.
But because it’s just hard.

Starting something from scratch takes courage.
Sticking with it when it’s quiet, when the clients aren’t coming, when the algorithm isn’t playing nice—that takes resilience.

But here’s what I know for sure:
You’re not alone.
You’re doing better than you think.
It’s still worth it.

And TVL is here to remind you of that.

In the coming weeks, I’ll be sharing:

Fresh blog posts
Regular emails
Early access to new digital products
… and a few surprises I’ve been keeping under wraps.

But today? I just wanted to say this:
If you’re still here, still trying, still dreaming—you’re doing more than enough. 

Let’s keep building.
Together.

With love,
Megan
Lead Mentor @ That Virtual Life
