In this episode, I’m talking about one of my favorite topics—delegation—and how it connects directly to boundaries. Too often we hold back from delegating because we’re afraid someone else will “mess it up” or won’t do it the way we would. But here’s the truth: by refusing to delegate, weoverload ourselves, limit our growth, and block our team from stepping into their potential.
I share insights from a recent presentation I gave at the Louisiana Society of CPAs Women’s Conference, along with real examples of how delegation has shaped my own career. You’ll hear why fear is the wrong reason not to delegate, how to reframe it as a boundary-setting tool, and why empowering others is key to being a stronger leader.
If you’ve been hesitating to let go of tasks—even the ones you know you shouldn’t be doing—this episode will help you flip the script and start small. Because setting boundaries through delegation isn’t just about your workload, it’s about creating space for everyone to grow.
