Who it’s for

You're a VA who wants more than client work

You've been managing calendars and inboxes, but you know you can run systems. You just need someone to show you how.

You're an EA ready to step into ops

You're already doing operations work — you just don't have the title or the playbook to make it official.

You're early-career and AI is making you nervous

Instead of worrying about being replaced, learn to be the person who puts AI to work for the whole team.

About the author

I spent a decade inside growing companies — working alongside founders to build the systems and infrastructure they needed as they scaled. I became VP within 8 months at one, helped drive $4.6M in revenue at another, and worked across 3 roles that didn’t exist before I filled them.

This playbook is everything I wish someone had given me when I started.

One of the sharpest operators I’ve worked with. She asks great questions. She thinks critically. And she cares deeply about doing things the right way.
Sean Conlon
CEO, 25|29 Ventures
Mica has a rare ability to step into complexity, create clarity, and leave behind systems that genuinely work. She operated like a co-founder.
