Leeanne Adu - Personal Assistant to CEO
(she/her)
Business owner, mother, breast cancer thriver, and encourager of others! After a decade of building a professional, well-known brand as an award-winning Personal Assistant and following the birth of her daughter, Leeanne decided the time was right to branch out and offer her services providing virtual business support to small businesses and entrepreneurs.
Leave It With LAVA was born in 2018. Since then, the business has begun to thrive, and Leeanne smashed her goal to become fully self-employed by the end of 2019. The business has since transformed into a Remote Assistant Agency with a team of 7. Leave It With LAVA exists to provide a comprehensive and reliable remote PA service to those who want to focus their expertise in the right direction whilst ensuring there is a safe pair of hands to manage the back-office functions.
Juggling not only motherhood and a full-time business, in late 2020 Leeanne was diagnosed with stage 3, grade 3, triple-negative breast cancer. After a gruelling year, she completed her treatment in late 2021. Leeanne is a well-versed public speaker who regularly talks about running a business, mental health matters and breast cancer advocacy. In her “spare” time, Leeanne loves to run and uses running to help combat her own struggles with her mental health.
