I did it too. For years, if I was not there, things slowed down. Not because the team was bad. Because the systems were not built to run without me.

I sat down recently with Kevin McDonald and Brichelle Haller on Positive Talk Radio to talk about what it actually takes to build a business that operates independently of its founder. Not the theory. The specific steps. The mistakes that come before the clarity.

We talked about the Sherpa Method. Why does most growth stall at the owner? What clarity, focus, and freedom actually look like in practice. And even about integrity and a lost wallet.
