The Budding Entrepreneur Transcripts

 If you've ever thought, this business only seems to work when I'm in it, you're not alone. You hire, you plan, you build, but somehow everything still runs through you. The team leans on you, the clients want you, and the pressure, it never lets up. That's the moment when most owners realize they're not scaling, they're surviving in a much bigger box. Today, we're going to talk about how to get out of that box and what this podcast is becoming to help you do just that.

 Picture this. Your team starts the week and things just happen. Client work gets started without you nudging it.  A task gets completed and the next person is notified automatically. Someone spots a flaw in a system and updates it before it becomes a fire. You're not chasing anyone, you're not repeating yourself, and you're definitely not stuck playing air traffic controller.  This is what momentum feels like and it's the reward for doing the hard part first. Getting your business out of your head, building real systems, and designing a business that doesn't need constant babysitting. Today's episode is about finishing that journey. You've documented, you've mapped, you've built part of a playbook. Now it's time to let those systems run their full course. Welcome to episode 204, from systems to momentum.

 Have you ever spent hours mapping out processes only to have no one use them? Or worse, your team nods through your SOP meetings and still goes rogue? Today, let's fix that. Because process maps are only step one. What matters is building a playbook your team trusts and actually uses. It's June 13th, 2025 and let's dig into episode 203 of the podcast. 

 Have you ever had one of those days where you're putting out fires that shouldn't even exist? Emails are missed, client work is delayed, and chaos, lots of chaos. Fortunately that chaos is fixable and today we're going to cover how by building out what every strong service business needs. Clarity, consistency, and yes, a business playbook.  So let's tame that chaos and build a playbook that works for you. Welcome to episode 202.
