Business Builders (Pt.42) Leading Even When You’re Deep in the Weeds


Listen Later

In this episode of the Business Builder Series, Staci gets real about what it looks like to lead well when you’re stuck in the “messy middle” of business, beyond the fun startup phase but not yet in a smooth, scalable rhythm. She shares how leadership in chaos doesn’t require perfect systems or a cleared calendar… just intention, clarity, and small but powerful shifts in how you show up every day.

Key topics covered:

  • Why waiting “until things calm down” keeps you stuck in chaos
  • The power of micro-moments in leadership (and why meetings aren’t always the answer)
  • Building CEO time into your schedule—even if it starts with just 30 minutes
  • Clear communication vs. constant availability (and why the latter leads to burnout)
  • Delegating the how while owning the why so your team can act without you

Even in the weeds, you can lead with intention and plant the roots that will support your next level of growth.
