Austin and Dallas Personal Assistants:
Who We Are & How We Got Here
It's not the big things that wear us down. It's the million tiny, accumulating tasks that break us.
Kate Ginsberg learned this hard lesson while her husband battled recurring Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Returning from a clinical trial, she found herself overwhelmed by a simple stack of plates that wouldn’t fit together in her cabinet. It was this moment that pushed her over the edge.
As a “get shit done girl,” Kate finally realized the lesson she had been imparting to her clients for years was one she needed to take to heart herself, and she asked for help.
After more than 13 years in business, Kate has faced many hard lessons about delegation, overwhelm, and the need for radical self-care in an age where people, especially women, are expected to do it all with perfectly polished grace.
Kate believes in authenticity, alignment, and that a well-run business can do what's right for its team, clients, and community.
Heather believes in doing what's right, even when it's hard.
With extensive experience in nonprofit, advocacy, and business management, Heather's journey has always been about making a difference.
Heather and Kate became friends through her volunteer work when both of their oldest children, now 14, were tiny. This bond laid the foundation for their future collaboration.
In May 2021, Heather joined Queen of To Do as its first employee, bringing her technical expertise, process development skills, marketing acumen, and business knowledge to accompany Kate's personal assistant expertise.
Her contributions have been pivotal in propelling the company to new heights. She and Kate share a commitment to transparency, work/life balance, company culture, and mission. Together, they make strategic decisions that align with their ideals and drive Queen of To Do forward.
