Personal Assistant - Life & Recovery Coordination

Posted 3 days ago

Worldwide

Summary

About the Role I’m looking for a personal assistant to help me build and maintain a sustainable weekly/biweekly system as I navigate concussion recovery, a career transition, and day-to-day life logistics. This isn’t a task-execution role — it’s a collaborative planning and accountability role. I need someone who can sit with me, ask good questions, and help translate my health and life goals into an actual workable schedule. What You’ll Help With • Concussion recovery coordination: Keeping track of appointments (physio, chiropractor, hyperbaric, therapy, etc.), prescribed exercises, and pacing recovery realistically around energy levels — not just what’s on paper. • Nutrition & grocery planning: Helping build out a simple meal plan and grocery list each cycle, and identifying when shopping/prep needs to happen. • Appointment adherence: Tracking upcoming health appointments and sending reminders/structure that account for fatigue, so nothing gets missed. • Schedule building: Turning my week/two weeks into a realistic plan — accounting for work hours, recovery needs, meals, and personal time. • Prioritization support: Sitting with me to talk through personal and professional goals, and helping me figure out what actually matters most in a given stretch of time. What I’m Looking For • Experience with health/wellness coordination, case management, coaching, or similar adhd/concussion recovery experience is a strong plus but not required • Comfortable asking direct, clarifying questions rather than waiting to be told exactly what to do • Organized, but also genuinely present — this is as much a conversation as it is a task list • Discreet and trustworthy with personal health information • Able to adapt the approach as my needs change (this role may taper further or shift focus over time) Logistics • Frequency: Weekly, approx. 2-hour sessions to 3hr sessions • Format: Fully remote (video/phone call) • Start date: ASAP • Location: Open to candidates anywhere, remote-friendly time zones welcome
