This episode digs into a challenge many music school owners quietly struggle with: feeling like everything depends on you. Dave walks you through the mindset shifts and simple systems that help you step out of that bottleneck role and build a school that runs with more ease, clarity, and support.

You'll learn:

• How the 80% Rule helps you release perfection and trust your team
• A straightforward method for documenting and delegating recurring tasks
• How to hand off not just work, but the thinking behind the work
• Why your highest value comes from steering the business, not managing every detail
• A practical way to use AI to strengthen your assistant's strategy skills
• How small, consistent delegation steps lead to more freedom and real scalability

If you're ready to reclaim your time, lead with more confidence, and build a school that doesn't rely on you for everything, this episode will give you the tools to start.
