About this listen

In this episode of Suffering for Art, I sit down with Aleah Vassell (they/she)—a professional actor, creative agency owner, and the powerhouse behind Creative With Money Co. Aleah transformed their financial life by launching a six-figure virtual assistant business, all while continuing to thrive in the performing arts.

We dive into how Aleah went from earning $27K to $116K in just one year, the realities of virtual assistant work, and how creatives can build wealth without sacrificing their art. Whether you're curious about what a VA actually does, how much it pays, or how to get started, this episode is your roadmap

Aleah also shares insights into their signature program, Virtual Assistant Accelerate, which helps aspiring VAs go from zero to $5K+ months in just seven weeks. Their story is a powerful reminder that financial freedom and creative fulfillment can coexist.
