    "I've been running my IT consulting business for seven years, and it's finally taking off. The problem is, I'm working 80-hour weeks and haven't had a vacation in three years. My family is frustrated, and I'm constantly exhausted. I know I need to step back, but I'm afraid everything will fall apart if I'm not involved in every decision.

  • HELP! How Do I Fire My Friend?

    Bianca Lager delivers advice on the business decisions and leadership problems clogging up your mental inbox 

    This week's advice submission: 

    "I'm the founder of a small e-commerce startup, and I've been working around the clock to get our business off the ground. Recently, I hired a close friend to handle our marketing and social media efforts, but I'm starting to have doubts about their performance and whether they're the right fit for the role. I'm hesitant to terminate their employment, as I value our personal relationship. However, I'm concerned that their lack of productivity may be holding the company back. Is there a way I can get anonymous advice on how to handle this situation without damaging our friendship?"

    Thanks for listening!
