This week, Steve and Sundie explore the fundamental question: Is starting a business right for you? If you’ve had that lingering thought for awhile now, you should probably pay attention to it. Give yourself permission to pursue that entrepreneurial path, but be realistic about it too. Not everyone needs to fit the Steve Jobs mold to start a business – you just need to know what you want to do and take the steps to make it happen.

Ever heard of the phrase “You can have it all”? Do they know what it takes to ‘have it all’?? The career, the home, the kids, the cooking, the cleaning, the color-coded calendar! Having it all doesn’t seem like much of an achievement when at the end of the day, you're too burned out to even enjoy all that you have worked for. Greenhouse Coach Dana Lin is on the podcast today to talk about a few simple tools and techniques you can use to make space, and why it's so important to have those boundaries and stress prevention strategies.

Delegation is also one of those things leaders tend to stumble into, without clarity on how they want to do it - without a predictable, repeatable framework. (This goes for the person on the receiving end of delegation as well.) Steve breaks down the secret to bridging the gap between accountability and ownership, and how to have that conversation with the people you manage.
