Have you ever felt like your business depends too much on you? Do you wonder how to step back without everything falling apart? In this episode of Leadership is Feminine, Kris Plachy unpacks the path from being the one in charge to developing leaders who can run the business without you.

She introduces the three key questions that shape an entrepreneur’s journey: How do I do this? How are we going to do this? And finally, how are they going to do this? These questions reveal the natural progression from doing everything yourself to building a team and ultimately empowering others to take full ownership.

Kris explores what it takes to move through these stages and why so many women get stuck in the transition. As she explains, If you are still thinking like a doer, if you are still thinking like the chief operator of your business and not the CEO or executive leader… then you don’t ever get out of it, right? You stay stuck there.”

She also announces The Sage’s Pathway, a live two-day event, designed for women who are ready to develop their team of managers into true leaders. This event is the next level of growth—helping you step away from the daily operations so you can experience not just more freedom, but the full impact of your years of investment in your business.
