You didn’t build your business to feel trapped.

But if you're constantly putting out fires, carrying the weight of your team, and secretly wondering if it’s all worth it… it’s time for a reality check.

In this episode of The Biz Doctor Podcast, Lauren Goldstein delivers a powerful wake-up call for 7- and 8-figure business owners who are exhausted from doing too much and getting too little in return.

The real problem isn’t your team, your strategy, or your systems. It’s that you’ve built a business that no longer fits the life you want.

This conversation will help you hit pause, zoom out, and get clear on the business you actually want to build—one that works for you, not because of you. What you’ll walk away with:

• The mindset shift that frees you from the burnout cycle—for good
• The exact question to ask when you’re too deep in the weeds to see a way out
• A 3-part roadmap to create more space, more clarity, and a business that finally feels aligned

Can’t-Miss Moments:

• [03:30] – The question that every overworked business owner must answer before making their next move
• [07:30] – How one simple shift in your calendar can unlock exponential growth
• [13:00] – The buyback principle that will forever change how you think about team and time

This is the beginning of your escape route from overwhelm—and the first step toward the freedom, space, and satisfaction you started your business for in the first place.
