Ever feel like your business is running you instead of the other way around? In this episode of Her Faith at Work, Jan sits down with Georgi Feidler, founder of Hire Train Inspire, to talk about what it really takes to scale your business without losing your soul—or your sanity.
Georgi shares hard-earned wisdom from a decade of helping visionary founders get unstuck and move with clarity, alignment, and momentum. From navigating inflection points to building teams that scale with you, this conversation is a must-listen for any founder who's wondering, "What’s next and how do I get there without burning out?"
You'll also hear how Georgi’s own story—full of personal loss, caregiving, and spiritual surrender—has deeply shaped the way she helps leaders lead well, live well, and let go when it’s time.
