Bigger Than The Hustle

Your Business Shouldn’t Own You – How to Get Out of the Day-to-Day

Heather Boehme & Chris Benedict Season 1 Episode 3

If stepping away from your business for even a day feels impossible—this episode is for you.

Hosts Heather Rose Boehme and Chris Benedict break down the #1 trap keeping entrepreneurs stuck: building a business that completely depends on them. If you’re approving every decision, micromanaging every detail, and drowning in tasks that someone else could handle, it’s time for a change.

In this episode, we cover:
 ✅ The hidden cost of being the bottleneck (and how it caps your business growth)
 ✅ The personal wake-up calls that forced us to step back and restructure
 ✅ 3 game-changing steps to free yourself from the daily grind:

  • Shift from ‘I have to do this’ to ‘Who can do this?’
  • Build systems that make decisions for you
  • Empower your team to lead without you

🔥 Action Step: Identify ONE task you do every week that someone else could handle. What would it take to delegate or automate it?

It’s time to stop being the bottleneck and start building a business that runs without running you into the ground.
