Being a business owner has its rewards, but it can be very stressful, especially when operating the business yourself. You only have a limited time and energy each day, so you can't possibly do everything.

There's value in being an expert and becoming indispensable at work. But, reaching new levels of success requires letting go of specific day-to-day tasks. To scale faster, you must fire yourself from time-consuming and repetitive tasks you've been doing and learn to delegate, outsource, or automate. However, letting go can be pretty scary.

So, how do you move from being a business owner and operator to becoming a leader? How do you free up more time to focus on more impactful things? That's what we are discussing today with my good buddy Austin Netzley.
