Burned Out or Just Busy Doing the Wrong Stuff?
You’re not broken—you might just be spending your time on all the wrong things.
In this episode of The Growth Hack Podcast, Marcus Slater (founder of AdCloud and Slater Digital Group) and Creative Director Mckenzie dig into the real reason so many entrepreneurs feel drained. Spoiler: it might not be burnout—it might be misaligned priorities, poor delegation, or holding onto tasks that someone else should’ve handled yesterday.
What you’ll learn in this episode:
- The truth about burnout (and why it might just be a passion problem)
- How to know when it’s time to delegate, automate, or eliminate
- The 80/20 rule for productivity and why chasing perfection can slow you down
- Why color-coding your calendar again isn’t actually progress
- A timer trick that helps you stop spinning your wheels
- How to reclaim space for strategy—not just survival mode
Whether you’re feeling stuck or simply overloaded, this episode will help you cut the clutter, clear your head, and focus on what actually moves the needle.
