She's back! Dawn Christian rejoins Sarah on the mic for a much-needed reunion. After pivoting from coaching to hands-on Online Business Management (OBM) for a real-life mobile bar owner, Dawn has been experiencing the behind-the-scenes mobile bar world and has uncovered the number one thing holding entrepreneurs back: an addiction to chaos.
In this powerhouse episode, Sarah and Dawn get real about the subconscious "addiction to stress" that keeps business owners in a state of fight-or-flight, making them feel needed but ultimately preventing them from scaling. They dismantle the myth that "you can't find good help" and explore the critical difference between management and true leadership—and why your team's success (or failure) rests on you.
This conversation is a must-listen for any entrepreneur who feels "crazy busy" but stuck, or any visionary who knows they need an implementer.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why entrepreneurs subconsciously create chaos to feel valuable (and how to break the cycle).
- The taboo truth: Is it okay to like your work more than your family?
- The hard lesson: If you think "nobody wants to work," the problem is your leadership.
- A deep dive into CRMs: Why HoneyBook will hold you back and why Dubsado is built for scale (even if it makes you "cry" to set up).
- How to use your "business winter" (slow season) to finally build the systems you've been avoiding.
- Sarah's candid story of recovering from her own "addiction to busyness" and regulating her nervous system.
- The life-changing magic of "chunking" your tasks to reclaim your time and focus.

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.
