About this listen
Smart, experienced business owners don’t get stuck because they lack intelligence, effort, or ambition. Most are doing everything they were taught to do—working harder, staying involved, and solving problems as they arise. On paper, it looks like leadership. In reality, it often becomes the very thing holding the business back.
This episode explores the subtle behaviors that trap capable owners in the middle of their companies. Not bad decisions. Not laziness. But patterns that feel responsible, helpful, and necessary—until they quietly limit growth, drain energy, and keep progress just out of reach.
We unpack why insight alone isn’t enough, how good intentions can create dependence, and what actually has to shift for a business to move forward without the owner carrying all the weight. If you’ve ever felt busy, needed, and exhausted at the same time, this conversation will feel uncomfortably familiar—in the best way.
