You've probably heard it before: "Your team should pay for itself." But if that hasn't been your experience, if you're hiring and still stuck doing all the things, this one's got your name on it. In this episode, I'm breaking down what it actually means to build a team that gives back more than they take. We're going deep on what this looks like across every level of growth: from hiring your first admin to leading a full leadership team. I'm walking you through the doers, the owners, and the true leaders, and how each one either creates freedom and profit... or drains your energy and margins.
