Let’s be real: if your business can’t run without you for a week (or even a few days), you don’t actually own a business—you own a job. And jobs don’t give you freedom, flexibility, or the chance to truly step away.
In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on what it really takes to vacation-proof your business. From the before (setting up systems, testing your team, and letting them fly), to the during (actually stepping back, checking your ego, and resisting the urge to micromanage), to the after (reviewing what worked, what didn’t, and fixing the gaps), we’re giving you the blueprint for building a business that doesn’t collapse just because you unplug.
We don’t just preach it—we’ve lived it. We’ve been the control freaks, the martyrs, the ones who thought the world would stop spinning if we didn’t answer every email. Spoiler alert: it didn’t. And the sooner you train your business (and yourself) to run without you, the sooner you step into the kind of freedom you signed up for when you became an entrepreneur in the first place.
So, are you ready to stop being the bottleneck and start being the badass visionary your business actually needs? Press play, then go ahead and open that browser—because it’s time to start searching for flights.
In this episode, we cover:
The “before” checklist: systems, SOPs, delegation, and dry runs
How to handle the “during”: discipline, ego-checks, and letting your team problem-solve
The “after” debrief: why reviewing fresh data beats rosy-colored hindsight
The mindset shift from martyr entrepreneur to badass leader
Why stepping away makes your business (and you) stronger
