Bestselling author, podcaster, and speaker Annie F. Downs joins me to share how she built a thriving business by staying in her zone of genius—and letting go of everything else. In this honest and energizing conversation, Annie pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to pursue big goals without burning out, from hiring before you feel ready to embracing radical accountability as a form of self-care.
We dive into how personality tools like the Enneagram influence team dynamics, why asking for help is a game-changer, and how to build a sustainable life around the things only you can do. Whether you're a solopreneur or building a team, this episode will challenge you to think differently about growth, boundaries, and the support you actually need.
