  • 641: From Operator to CEO: The Identity Shift That Changes Everything
    Jun 19 2025

    You didn’t start your business to be the most overworked employee on the team.

    In this episode, Leon and Samantha cut through the noise and dissect what keeps business owners trapped in operator mode. Think long hours, empty days, and a hamster-wheel effect with zero ROI.

    They unpack the mindset, the mechanics, and the proven roadmap to shift into true CEO mode where you’re working on your business, leveraging your team, automating with intention, and protecting your energy so you can scale profitably and sustainably.

    If you’re done trading hours for dollars and ready to build a business that bucks the burnout cycle, these strategies will help you to get the momentum you need, and create the life and business you really want.

  • From Fully Booked to Stretched Thin? Here’s Why That’s Actually a Win
    Jun 12 2025

    Ever feel suffocated by the very business you dreamed of building? This isn’t a sign that it needs to be burned down. There might just be something else going on.

    In this episode, Samantha and Leon crack open the very real, and very messy, middle phase of business growth. When your calendar’s full, your energy’s tanking, and your dreams are still bigger than your bandwidth.


    This conversation offers a tactical and mindset-rich reframe for business owners who are finally hitting those “next level” problems and wondering why it doesn’t feel like success yet.


    You’ll hear how to shift from over-functioning solopreneur to empowered CEO, buy back your time without guilt, and install the systems that support sustainable scaling.


    If you're in the messy middle, don’t panic. You might just need to make a few minor tweaks. This is the part no one glamorizes, but it’s where real transformation happens.


    If you’re looking for what to do next, or just need a clear-headed guide out of the chaos, Sam and Leon are only one DM away.
