Your team isn’t bringing you drama because they’re needy — they’re bringing it because you’ve trained them to believe every hiccup requires CEO intervention.

But here’s the truth: your job is to ensure professional collaboration, not personal comfort.

This episode is your reminder that you’re not the office therapist. You’re the CEO. And with the Function First Framework (plus a little AI backup), you can redirect emotional spirals back to work outcomes and save yourself hours every week.

You’ll learn…

• Why stepping into therapist mode steals focus from your real CEO work
• The Function First Framework to redirect team drama back to performance
• AI scripts you can use to acknowledge feelings while keeping conversations outcome-focused
• Why caring about your people doesn’t mean carrying their emotional labor
