Anne Rajoo lives in an idyllic island setting in the Indian Ocean. But business has not always been so carefree for this multi-talented, multi-skilled, multi-passionate, entrepreneur mom.
Anne turned things around for her peace of mind and productivity after realizing she needed to get help--she couldn't do it all by herself without risking repeated burnout. Peaceful Productivity was how she has been able to do more, have more, and stress less.
One of Anne's business ventures grew out of this desire to get help for herself. Her virtual assistance agency now helps others find just the right people to help them complete the tasks on their to-do lists so they can focus more on their zone of genius; the income-producing areas of their business.
I talked with Anne about how coaches and content creators can get started with the process of hiring help. She also shared what she sees as some of the biggest mistakes to avoid in getting help for your business.

About Mindi Trimble:Described as “the bubble wrap of life & college coaching,” Mindi Trimble encourages college-bound students to POP with fun, stress-relieving ideas for navigating their educational journeys using the Majorly Determined method inside her multi-year Accepted Academy program.
She then makes sure her students don’t POP under pressure by coaching them through carefully chosen coursework and self-directed experiences—all culminating in personality-filled applications that get put in the ‘yes’ pile.
Besides increasing acceptance rates, working with Mindi has been known to yield college financial offers ranging from five to thirty times her students’ investment in her programs. When not singing her students’ praises, Mindi is flexing her Phi Beta Kappa-from-UC Berkeley skills at trivia nights, hiking with her family and German Sheagle, or using her formal opera training to make up silly versions of soprano arias.
