No, seriously — welcome back to Franly Advice.
I took a little hiatus. Summer break hit, my kids were home, my ADHD was ADHD-ing, my autism was autism-ing, and I had to pause to relearn how to be a human, a mom, and a business owner at the same time.
This podcast is one of my favorite parts of my business, so I’m committed to showing up again — weekly in 2026. Will it be perfect? No. Will it be real? Absolutely.
And right now, I’m in what I call my Hustle Fran era.
My husband lost his job, and for the first time in a long time, it’s been just me bringing in income. I had plans for a soft-girl glow-up season, but life said, “Actually… we’re hustling.”
The late nights.
The early mornings (thanks, kids).
The pressure.
It reminded me of 2020 Fran — and whew, I forgot how intense she was.
But I’m also learning how to reset my expectations and remember that this season is about doing the work now so future Fran can breathe easier.
In 2026, I’m keeping it simple:
1. 1:1 Coaching for VAs
I work with up to 10 virtual assistants who want to scale, build agencies, or grow their businesses. I love this work deeply. These are my girls.
2. My VA Operations Agency
We handle systems, SOPs, workflows, inbox support, and email marketing.
No fluff. Just real operations support.
We chose fewer clients with deeper work — and honestly, I love it.
It’s a re-imagining.
I’m not starting over.
I’m just getting there differently.
This season is for Fran of 2027.
And I’m proud of her already.
Here’s to flourishing.
Here’s to flow.
Here’s to trusting the process.
