There’s a myth that if you want something done right, you have to do it all yourself. For so many of us in business, that belief is hardwired—it was for me, too. I thought I had to juggle every task, manage every detail, and never let go of control. But as my business grew, that approach wasn’t sustainable. It wasn’t helping me grow; it was keeping me stuck.
When I finally let go of the “I have to do everything” mindset, everything shifted. Here’s how letting go, outsourcing, and focusing on high-impact areas transformed my business—and how you can do the same.
1. Outsource the Draining Stuff
One of the toughest lessons as a business owner is learning when to let go. Like most entrepreneurs
, I was hesitant to delegate. I worried no one would do the tasks as well as I would. But trying to do everything myself was exhausting and held me back from focusing on the parts of my business that truly mattered.
When I started outsourcing tasks like social media scheduling, basic bookkeeping, and customer support, I reclaimed hours in my day and freed up my energy for the work that drives growth.
Why It Works:
Outsourcing doesn’t mean giving up control; it means giving yourself room to focus on what you do best.
2. Embrace Systems & Automation
There’s a reason I’m a systems fanatic—they work. When I implemented automation and workflows, my business became smoother, more consistent, and less stressful. From email marketing to client onboarding, automating repetitive tasks saved me hours every week and ensured nothing fell through the cracks.
Here’s How Automation Helps:
Building solid systems was the foundation that allowed me to scale sustainably and confidently.
3. Focus on High-Impact Work
The biggest game-changer for me? Realizing that not all tasks are created equal. I stopped spending time on the “busy work” that didn’t move the needle and started focusing on high-impact activities—like strategy, business development, and relationship-building. These are the areas that drive growth and make a tangible difference.
Why High-Impact Work Matters:
By putting my energy into the right places, I created space for my business to grow—and for me to thrive.
