Get Out of Your Own Way: From Solo Founder to Empowered CEO

Do you ever feel like your business would crumble if you took even a five-day break? Today, we're talking about the real struggle founders face when they want to grow but find themselves stuck micromanaging everything.

The main problem? Staying in “founder mode” traps you in every department—admin, sales, delivery—until you become the bottleneck that keeps your company from scaling. The challenges are clear: letting go of control, hiring great people but not letting them own their roles, and failing to set up systems and communication that free you to lead. I’m sharing my own experiences and the patterns I’ve seen coaching entrepreneurs through this tough shift.

In this episode, we’ll break down the differences between founder and CEO, highlight the steps you need to get your business out of your head and into team-ready processes, and talk about the habits that can finally set you free. By the end, you’ll know exactly what’s holding you back—and how to move forward.
