S2 E12: How to Stop Being the Bottleneck in Your Business

I’ll admit it – I was the biggest roadblock in my own business.

When I asked my team what wasn’t working, all roads led straight back to me. And honestly? It stung. But it also revealed the exact places where I needed to step back, delegate, and stop micromanaging.

And here’s what I realized: Most wellness practitioners – whether they have a team or are working solo – are the biggest bottlenecks in their own business.

Why? Because we care. A lot.

👉We think, “No one will do this as well as I do.”

👉We tell ourselves, “It’s just faster if I handle it myself.”

👉We worry, “What if they mess it up?”

But here’s the hard truth: If everything depends on you, your business can’t grow beyond you.

Whether it’s patient follow-ups, social media, scheduling, or even ordering supplements, the more you keep on your plate, the less freedom you have to focus on the things that actually grow your practice. And the worst part? It’s exhausting.

So in this episode, I’m sharing exactly how I’m un-bottlenecking my business – and how you can too.
