If you are spinning your plates, and feel like you're getting pulled from pillar to post. I get it. You know you need help to manage it all, but finding the right people to support you and your business can be one of the most powerful—and most challenging—parts of growing and scaling. Hire the wrong person, and it can cost you time, energy, and money. Hire the right person, and it can completely change the game.

In this week's episode of Life by Design, Claire shares the real lessons she's learned from hiring team members over the last 30 years across multiple successful businesses—from her award-winning agency to her thriving coaching company.

You'll hear her most valuable insights on when to hire, who to hire, and how to make sure you're not giving your power (and profit) away in the process.

If you've ever:

• Wondered whether it's too soon (or too late) to hire help

• Felt like hiring would be hassle and it's quicker to just do it yourself

• Hired someone who didn't deliver, communicate, or fit your values

• Struggled to balance letting go of tasks while keeping control

• Felt like managing a team was draining instead of freeing

• Wanted to know how to build a small but mighty team that actually moves the needle in your business

...then this episode will give you the clarity you need to make smart hiring decisions and lead your team with confidence.

Claire also opens up about the importance of hiring before you're desperate, how to test new team members before locking in retainers, and why creating your "business bible" (SOPs) is a total game-changer for consistency and ease.
