If you’re like most contractors I talk to, you’re great at solving problems. It’s your superpower, and that’s exactly what might be keeping you stuck.
In this episode, I share a conversation I had with a client who was struggling to carve out time to work on her business instead of constantly working in it. The challenge? She wasn’t seeing results fast enough, and that made it hard to stay motivated.
What we uncovered was a simple, powerful shift in how to get traction and actually see progress — even when you're not solving an urgent problem.
This episode is all about how to set up your work (and your team) so you don’t have to stay stuck in firefighting mode to feel valuable.
