Susie Bills: The GenX Entrepreneur Who Redefined "Retirement" at 48

[Nationwide] - Susie Bills is a GenX entrepreneur who has reinvented the concept of retirement by stepping away from her traditional “9-5” career at 48 and building a remote business. Over the last seven years, she has been working and living abroad in 14 different countries, living a life that many aspire to but few achieve.

What started as a one-person service business has since scaled to over $1M in revenue and an international team, all while helping her clients build their own freedom-focused businesses. With a mission to help others design their own flexible, fulfilling, and financially secure futures, Susie has emerged as a leader in midlife career transformations.

In 2017, Susie made the life-changing decision to leave her career behind. Drawing on her years of experience, she launched a one-person digital business, quickly building a scalable model that allowed her to replace her salary in just six months. Today, Susie serves as the CEO of The Virtual Rx Agency, where she focuses on mentoring other professionals—particularly those in midlife—who are seeking financial freedom and lifestyle flexibility. Her goal is to help individuals build profitable online businesses that complement their current careers, enabling them to transition into full-time entrepreneurship if and when they are ready.

"I want people to know that leaving your job doesn’t have to be sudden or risky," Susie said. "If you use the skills you already have, you can start earning income on the side—while still employed—until you’re ready to make the shift. That’s how I did it: first monetizing my expertise, then replacing my salary, and finally stepping away on my own terms. It’s a strategic path to building a business and life you love!”

The success of Susie’s program has been built on her expertise in helping others discover their unique potential and build businesses that align with their passions and skills. While her own journey includes a lifestyle that many dream of, she emphasizes that success in this space requires patience, persistence, and adaptability. She teaches individuals how to monetize their expertise and gradually build sustainable businesses that reflect their personal values and goals.

Susie is passionate about helping people rethink their professional paths and embrace the flexibility and freedom that comes with location-independent work. Her mentorship is designed to provide practical and strategic advice on how to achieve financial independence through productized services, consulting, courses, and other online opportunities.

For Susie, the key to career and life fulfillment is designing a business that works for you. "It’s not about quitting everything and diving into entrepreneurship blindly," she explained. "It’s about monetizing what you already know, replacing your income step by step, and then scaling on your terms."

As the founder of The Virtual Rx Agency, Susie has worked with countless professionals to help them shift from traditional employment to flexible, online business models. By focusing on providing value and utilizing digital platforms, her clients have been able to grow businesses at their own pace, allowing for better work-life balance and transitioning to full-time online work.

Through mentorship and coaching, Susie has enabled individuals to turn their expertise into income streams, creating businesses that can be operated from anywhere in the world. This location-independent approach has been particularly appealing to those who wish to integrate work and travel, or who simply want to free themselves from the limitations of a traditional job.
