You finally hire a manager, hoping they’ll take daily tasks off your plate… but before long, you’re still the one solving problems, running team meetings, and making all the decisions. Sound familiar?

You’re not alone — and here’s the truth: most salon owners accidentally sabotage their managers by holding on too tight, micromanaging, and never truly letting go. In this episode, we uncover why so many salon owners fall into this trap — and how to stop. You’ll learn:
  • The #1 reason you keep getting pulled back into daily operations
  • How to define clear roles and responsibilities between you and your manager
  • The key to delegating with confidence, without “dump and run”
  • Why letting go isn’t just scary — it’s essential for scaling
  • How to shift from problem-solver to powerful Salon CEO

We’ll also show you why stepping into CEO leadership isn’t just about you — it’s about empowering your team to step up with you, and building a business that can grow beyond you. If you’re tired of doing your manager’s job and feel stuck in the weeds, this episode will give you the clarity and courage you need to finally cross that bridge into freedom and profit. You don’t have to stay stuck.

 Here’s why you should listen to this episode:

  1. Understand why your manager isn’t stepping up (and how you might be the reason!). 
  2. Learn how to delegate with clarity so your manager can lead — not rely on you. 
  3. Get inspired to finally step into your CEO role and create a salon that runs without you.
