Are you building a business—or just staying busy? In this episode, we explore what it means to shift from being the technician to becoming the CEO of your pet care company. We break down the mental and operational changes needed to move from chaos to structure, burnout to sustainability, and survival to growth. We share practical steps, real-life examples, and honest truths about what it takes to lead well. If you're ready to design a business that runs without breaking you, this is for you.
Main topics:
- Capacity and Burnout Pressures
- Systems Thinking and SOPs
- Delegation and Outsourcing
- Financial Metrics for CEOs
- Identity Shift and Resilience
Main takeaway: At some point I have to stop saying, "I walk dogs" - and start saying, "I run a company!"
That shift isn't just about a new title—it's about reclaiming your role as the architect of your business. When you think like a CEO, you stop reacting and start designing. You focus on systems, strategy, sustainability. You build something that lasts. This episode is your blueprint for making that shift—from technician to leader, from burnout to balance. Build a business that works for you!
