In this wide ranging and refreshingly honest conversation, Kevin sits down with Samantha Prestidge, founder of Auxo, to talk about what really happens behind the scenes of growing a business.

From her early career in staffing and construction, to building a boutique operations and delegation company while raising young children, Samantha shares how most founders do not actually need more ideas. They need clarity, structure and the confidence to let go.

Together, they explore why delegation often fails, how founders accidentally become bottlenecks in their own businesses, and why hiring support is less about job titles and more about understanding how you work. Samantha breaks down her practical “map it, keep it, delegate it” framework and explains how business owners can stop drowning in tasks without losing control of their vision.

The conversation also goes deeper into leadership, faith, identity and decision making. Samantha reflects on her journey back to faith, how spirituality has shaped her approach to business, and why simplicity, discernment and honesty matter more than hustle culture ever will.

This episode is for founders who feel overwhelmed but restless, ambitious but stretched, and successful on paper yet quietly exhausted. It is a reminder that building something sustainable often starts with doing less, not more.
