Ever feel like you're on the fast track to burning out? It's that classic dilemma for business owners (and parents) where you feel guilty for taking even a moment for yourself.

Last week, Richard and Lee had to make a tough call and be selfish, which meant missing an episode. The experience got them talking about why our social programming tells us selfishness is a negative thing, when in reality, it's about survival.

They look at why putting yourself first (like fitting your own oxygen mask) is the only way to be effective for your family, your team, and your business.

The story in this episode is from Lee's book:

Once Upon a Time in Small Business.
