"For the past seven years, Judy has been a vital part of my personal and business growth. It’s taken both of us, each doing what we do best, to bring my business to the success it is today. Judy takes care of the things I don't really want to do (things she actually loves doing!), and keeps everything organized and timely. This allows me to be my most creative, productive and bright-minded self. As a result, my cash flow has increased 3x.
Judy is everything you’d want in a perfect assistant. She is gracious, loving, kind, supportive, punctual, organized, heart-centered, cheerful, smart, professional, sincere and authentic. That said, I have to mention that above all, I cherish the friendship we’ve developed over the years. She is always willing to open her heart to me, listen and understand where I am coming from, and that means more to me than all the business success I have experienced through our partnership. I count her as a blessing in my life each and every day. In a five star system, I would rate Judy a ten."
"Judy Segawa has been my VA since 2004,and I am delighted to offer this recommendation for her. I believe my speaking business has flourished because of the expert and efficient service she has rendered to me as my VA. I could not be where I am today in my business if I did not have Judy at my side always pulling for me both personally and professionally and giving me the added push I needed from time to time.
Where I lack in running a business, she stars. She keeps my records up to date and stays on top of all my activities. My clients enjoy working with her and never fail to have a good word about her to me. She represents my speaking business very professionally and with genuine aloha spirit.
I feel Judy has my best interest always at the forefront of her mind as she works on my material, deals with negotiations, follows-up on details with clients, and meets deadlines for me. I am impressed with her calm and wise nature and her willingness to go the extra mile. She is professional in every way and very enthusiastic about her work and about working with me. I know I can trust her implicitly and that is what you want in an assistant – competence, cooperation and communications – to get the work done.
I am deeply grateful to Judy for all she has done and continues to do for me as my VA."
"I purchased a holistic yoga franchise in 2008 because it was my dream to offer this service to others. However, although I had over 30 years of administrative/managerial experience with the Federal Government, I had no experience running a for-profit private business.
So, Judy was an absolute god-send. She took care of the administrative details so I could concentrate on doing what I loved to do. She set up my books and patiently worked with me to keep meticulous records of my income and expenses, and keep my business on track. When I needed financial reports for taxes and sensitive business transactions, she was able to produce them quickly and at the level of detail I needed to confidently make important business decisions.
She is an excellent listener, and asked questions that helped me clarify my thinking process and reach decisions that were fair and made with integrity. She is absolutely trustworthy. I could discuss anything with her and know that she would keep those discussions in confidence. In short, I would not have survived without her.
I would without reservation recommend her to anyone needing a business confidante and administrative support."

"It’s hard to believe that seven years have gone by since I took on your virtual assistant services in 2004. Another year will soon be ending and I’m looking forward to once again working with you. Because of your organizational skills I have been able to accomplish a lot more this year than anticipated. You’ve also been a huge help in reminding me of tax deadlines, making sure I don’t miss our monthly meetings and just being flexible with my schedule has really made a difference for me.
It’s been a pretty challenging year, especially since I made a career change, but you were able to continue meeting my needs seamlessly. I look forward to working with you again in the New Year."
"My working relationship with Judy began ten years ago, and was a turning point both professionally and personally. Having Judy as my virtual assistant allowed me to turn over the bookkeeping to her and focus on serving my clients. Judy is everything I could wish for – intelligent, calm and clear-minded, positive and fun, meticulously organized, conscientious, and full of integrity. I knew my business was in great hands! Her impeccable skills simplified my work life so greatly that I now have time to move forward to new endeavors, and her support has aided me every step of the way."
