Business Builders (Pt.21) Build a Business That Can Run Without You
Ever feel like your business would fall apart if you stepped away for even a day? Whether you dream of selling your business someday or just want the freedom to take a real vacation, this episode is for you. I'm diving into the mindset shifts and practical systems that will help you build a business that doesn’t rely solely on you to keep it afloat. This concept was a total game changer for me—and I think it will be for you too.
Let’s talk about how to stop being the bottleneck and start building a self-sustaining business you can actually enjoy.
Key topics covered:
- Why your business might actually be a job in disguise if it can’t function without you
- The “genius with a thousand helpers” trap and how to escape it
- 3 critical mindset and role shifts every business owner needs to make
- Practical steps to start documenting, delegating, and empowering your team
- A weekly challenge to offload one task and create breathing room in your biz
Challenge
Identify one area of your business where your involvement is no longer necessary (or shouldn't be)—then choose one task or decision to delegate or document and take the first step toward offloading it.
