    A bit about Allie:

    Allie Pasag is a veteran in the world of virtual assistance and online business management. With a career that stretches back to 2003, she is a proven authority in creating systems and automation that are not just sophisticated but also user-friendly and easily implemented. As the CEO of Streamline Mavens and a Certified Online Business Manager, Allie brings a wealth of knowledge and experience in breaking down business barriers and putting client businesses on autopilot.

Her primary mission is to create the optimal environment for passion-driven businesses to thrive.

     

    Allie’s journey in the freelance world began in 2003, and she received her certification as an Online Business Manager in 2018. In 2009, she started her VA agency which unfortunately had to close its doors in 2019 due to the pandemic. This closure was a difficult but necessary decision as she prioritized her daughter's health, who is asthmatic and more susceptible to COVID-19. This challenge led Allie to adapt and shift her approach, which has resulted in the birth of Streamline Mavens.

     

    Together with two other certified OBMs, Streamline Mavens is a testament to resilience, adaptability, and the unwavering pursuit of excellence. As they navigate the digital landscape, they're not only changing how businesses operate, but they're also setting new standards in the field of virtual professional services.

    A bit about Andrea:

    Hi! I’m Andrea Elibero, a business coach & scaling strategist for soulpreneurs.

    I am fiercely passionate about empowering soulpreneurs to intentionally grow & scale mission-driven businesses that both celebrate their unique magic and support their dream life through embodiment, coaching, strategy, & implementation so they can live the aligned laptop lifestyle of their dreams.

    My path has taken me from therapist to nurse to fulfilling my desire for freedom and embarking on my entrepreneurial journey in 2019. I replaced my >$70k 9-5 income in 5 months as a virtual assistant. A few months later, I grew into a virtual assistant agency, and soon after, I expanded to a certified online business manager. My journey culminated as a business coach & scaling strategist. 

    My passion is working with soulpreneurs to help them scale their businesses in an intentional way so it supports their life and not the other way around. 

    When I am not doing that, I keep myself busy by adapting to my new life abroad (I moved from Miami to Spain in 2022), teaching my dogs to bark in Spanish, having lots of travel adventures, and practicing pilates & yoga.
