How I Stopped Being the Bottleneck in My Own Business
About this episode
You’re Not Supposed to Know Everything in Your Business
This week, something weird (but awesome) happened. I realized I didn’t actually know how part of my own business worked and that was a good thing.
While onboarding a new social media manager, I was asked a simple question about our content process and for a moment, I froze. I didn’t know the answer. But that moment turned into a powerful realization: as a business owner, you’re not supposed to know every detail.
In this episode of The Unfiltered Sessions Podcast, I’ll unpack:
✅ Why not knowing every process is actually a sign of growth
✅ The difference between oversight and micromanagement
✅ What it really means to lead from a 30,000-foot view
✅ How to let go of control without losing direction
✅ Practical steps to get out of the weeds and start leading like a CEO
If you’re still buried in the day-to-day tasks and struggling to let go, this episode is your wake-up call. Delegation isn’t a weakness, it's the next step toward true leadership.
