En este episodio, Carola te acompaña a cerrar el año con honestidad y abrir el 2026 con dirección. Primero haces la cuenta: lo que sí funcionó, lo que se repite y ya cansa, y lo que se terminó (sí, aunque duela, a veces eso es libertad). Luego eliges la memoria: qué te llevas como enseñanza y qué decides construir sin culpa ni exigencia.Vas a escuchar tres pilares para sostener un año más claro y más liviano:Emociones: volver a ti sin creerle todo al cansancio.Familia: amar sin cargarte lo que no te toca.Trabajo y propósito: menos prisa, más rumbo (y una prioridad por trimestre, no veinte).Además, Carola te deja un plan simple de 7 días para tomar el volante sin esperar “el gran día”: orden, límites, cierres pendientes, enfoque y conversaciones postergadas.Porque escucha bien: que la primera opción no es sufrir. Es respirar, elegir, ordenar… y avanzar paso a paso

Google va a permitir cambiar direcciones @gmail.com sin perder datos ni accesos.Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCoDurante años, tu dirección de Gmail era una decisión para toda la vida. Si elegiste un nombre extraño, infantil o poco profesional, no había marcha atrás. Podías cambiar tu nombre visible, pero la dirección terminada en @gmail.com quedaba fija para siempre. Muchas personas convivieron con eso por trabajo, estudios y trámites oficiales. Hoy esa regla empieza a moverse.Google confirmó en una página de soporte que va a habilitar, de forma gradual, una opción muy esperada: cambiar tu dirección @gmail.com por otra nueva, sin crear una cuenta distinta y sin perder nada. La información apareció primero en India y ya está generando preguntas claras. ¿Cuándo llegará a otros países? ¿Qué pasa con los correos antiguos? ¿Habrá riesgos reales para tu cuenta?El giro llega tardeDurante mucho tiempo, Gmail fue rígido con este tema. Si tu cuenta terminaba en @gmail.com, la respuesta oficial era simple: no se puede cambiar. La única salida era crear otra cuenta desde cero. Eso implicaba mover contactos, fotos, documentos, suscripciones y accesos a servicios como YouTube, Maps o Drive. Para muchas personas, ese cambio era inviable.Ahora, en un documento oficial de ayuda, Google explica un proceso nuevo. El texto aparece, por ahora, solo en hindi. Aun así, el mensaje es claro. Vas a poder cambiar tu dirección @gmail.com por otra también terminada en @gmail.com. No será una cuenta nueva. Será la misma cuenta, con dos direcciones activas. La original quedará como alias y seguirá funcionando.Este cambio llega con reglas claras que conviene entender bien. La primera: no es inmediato para todo el mundo. Google dice que el despliegue será gradual. Eso significa que algunas personas lo verán antes y otras tendrán que esperar semanas o meses.La segunda regla es el tiempo. Una vez hagas el cambio, no vas a poder modificar ni eliminar direcciones durante doce meses completos. Un año entero. Eso obliga a pensar bien el nuevo nombre antes de confirmarlo.También hay límites. Cada cuenta podrá tener hasta cuatro direcciones en total. Es decir, la original más tres cambios posibles a lo largo del tiempo. Además, tu dirección antigua seguirá apareciendo en algunos lugares, como eventos viejos de Google Calendar creados antes del cambio. No todo se actualiza de golpe.La parte más tranquila de esta historia es la que tiene que ver con tus datos. Google asegura que nada se pierde. Fotos, correos antiguos, mensajes, archivos de Drive y compras seguirán exactamente igual.Vas a poder iniciar sesión con la dirección vieja o con la nueva. Ambas llevarán a la misma cuenta. Los correos enviados a cualquiera de las dos direcciones llegarán al mismo buzón. Incluso vas a poder seguir enviando correos desde la dirección antigua si así lo deseas.La dirección original seguirá siendo tuya para siempre. Nadie más podrá usarla. Eso reduce riesgos de suplantación o confusión. Cuando la función esté activa, el cambio se hará desde “Mi cuenta”, en la sección de información personal, tanto en computador como en móvil.Este movimiento acerca a Gmail a lo que ya ofrecen otros servicios de correo. Outlook, por ejemplo, permite crear alias y cambiar direcciones desde hace tiempo. En Google Workspace, el servicio para empresas, estas opciones existen, pero bajo administración y pago.Por ahora, todo indica que el despliegue empezó en India y luego se irá ampliando a más países. No hay fecha oficial para América Latina o Europa, pero el lenguaje de Google apunta a un lanzamiento global progresivo.Si hoy entras a la configuración y no ves la opción, es normal. No significa que tu cuenta esté excluida. Significa que todavía no te toca. La recomendación es simple: revisar de vez en cuando la sección de correo en tu cuenta de Google y esperar el aviso.

Ever feel like you're drowning in tasks but can't afford help? Or maybe you've built a team that's bleeding your profits dry? Welcome to the business staffing conversation nobody's having honestly.In this wildly practical episode, Leonie Dawson and Tamara Protassow dive deep into the messy middle of hiring, firing, and right-sizing your business. From Leonie's experience managing 25+ staff (spoiler: it nearly broke her) to running a 7 figure business with just 1-2 part-time VAs, you'll get the real talk on what actually works.Topics Covered:Red flags that you have too little support (and when to finally hire)Warning signs you've hired too many people (and how to fix it)The "rescue fantasy" trap that keeps you from leading yourselfWhat to outsource first (and what to keep doing yourself)Income-to-staffing ratios that actually make senseHow to protect yourself from "irreplaceable" team membersSystems that save your sanity (and your business)Key Insights:If you can't afford to hire, you don't have a proven business model yet—focus on marketing and pricing firstBookkeeping and tax should be your FIRST outsource—it's affordable and frees crucial brain spaceUnder $1M in revenue? You only need 1-2 part-time VAs in most online business modelsStandard Operating Procedures aren't optional—they're your insurance policy when life happensMore staff = more complexity, not more speed. Small teams move faster.If someone makes your business seem impossibly complicated, they're the problem (not the solution)Lower your household expectations before hiring help—are you leading yourself or waiting for rescue?Templates and systems can save you from "Sharon mode" (ask Leonie's family about that one)The "delegate everything" advice is BS—some tasks ground you and spark your best ideasWhen staff leave, your business should run smoothly. If it doesn't, you have a documentation problem.Ready to build a business that supports your life instead of consuming it? Join Leonie's Academy for workshops on hiring VAs, creating SOPs, and right-sizing your empire. Plus, connect with a community of creative, neurodivergent entrepreneurs who get it.Notable Quotes:"If you feel like your business is just far too complicated and absolutely must have this one person or your business will not work, I want you to know that you are wrong and that you need to get rid of that person as soon as possible." – Leonie Dawson"We are not actually brain surgeons. We are not rocket scientists. And every single person in this world really is replaceable." – Leonie Dawson"Are you actually leading yourself or are you wanting someone to rescue you?" – Leonie Dawson"The more somebody makes out that the business is very complicated, the more that person needs to leave because businesses actually aren't that complicated." – Leonie Dawson"Your best ideas don't come at the laptop. They happen in blank space moments when you're in the shower, when you're cooking dinner, when you're wafting about your raspberry patch." – Leonie DawsonWho This Podcast Is For:Creative women entrepreneurs, neurodivergent business owners, and soul-led service providers who want to build profitable businesses without sacrificing their sanity, values, or family time. Perfect for you if you're tired of "hustle harder" advice and ready for strategies that actually work for human beings.Links & Resources Mentioned:Leonie Dawson's Academy – Includes "How to Hire and Manage a VA" workshop and SOP templatesPrevious episode: Interview with Claire Wood (accountant)Previous episode: Interview with Katie Chappell (illustration business)Tools mentioned: Gmail templates, Asana, Zero accounting software, Repurpose.io, HelloFresh, Marley Spoon, The Laundry Lady (Australia)Bob Katter on crocodiles#WomenEntrepreneurs #CreativeBusiness #NeurodivergentEntrepreneur #SmallBusinessOwner #BusinessSystems #SolopreneurLife #MindfulBusiness #VirtualAssistant #BusinessGrowth #FemaleFounders

If the idea of delegating in your practice immediately brings up fear about HIPAA, confidentiality, or losing control, this episode is for you. In this solo episode, I'm breaking down exactly what you can delegate right now (and what you shouldn't) so you can protect your license while still getting critical tasks off your plate.I walk through real-world examples of delegation, from marketing tasks and intake calls to inbox management and follow-ups, and I clear up a lot of the myths therapists carry around about HIPAA. I explain how HIPAA actually works in practice, why delegating the wrong things first can waste time and money, and how proper training—not avoidance—is what keeps your practice safe as you grow.If your practice feels like you're “building the plane while flying it,” or you know an uptick in clients is coming and your systems aren't ready yet, this episode will help you get grounded and move forward with confidence instead of fear.In this episode, you'll learn:What I recommend delegating first in a therapy practice, like intake calls, follow-ups, basic marketing workflows, and inbox management, without violating HIPAAHow I think about training and onboarding VAs, including HIPAA education, clear boundaries, and realistic expectationsWhy I stopped using long written SOPs and switched to short screen-recorded workflows, and how that reduced mistakesHow to tell the difference between tasks that actually move you toward revenue and ones that just keep you busyIf you're ready to stop doing everything yourself and start building systems that support your growth, this episode gives you a practical, HIPAA-aware place to start.If you're ready to lead with confidence, join the 2026 Supervisor Course waitlist for early access to bonus tools, templates, and fast-track grading.

¿Tienes la sensación de que nunca es suficiente, hagas lo que hagas? En este episodio hablamos de algo que muchos sienten pero pocos se atreven a mirar de frente: la autoexigencia constante, el perfeccionismo disfrazado de responsabilidad y ese agotamiento silencioso que aparece cuando vives intentando cumplir expectativas que no son tuyas. Aquí no vas a encontrar frases motivacionales vacías. Vas a encontrar una reflexión honesta sobre:Por qué no estás cansado… estás desgastadoCómo el perfeccionismo te aleja de ti mismoLa trampa de querer hacerlo todo bienPor qué no necesitas esforzarte más, sino elegir mejorCómo vivir con más calma sin sentir culpaLa importancia de escuchar tus propios ritmosPorque no tienes que poder con todo. Tienes que decidir qué merece tu energía. A veces no se trata de hacer más, sino de dejar de exigirte lo que no toca. De entender que la constancia real no es apretar los dientes, sino sostener lo pequeño incluso en los días malos.

Hier gehts zur VA-WEEKDiese Folge ist anders als sonst – und genau deshalb ein ganz besonderer Jahresabschluss.Zum Ende des Jahres stelle ich in diesem Podcast immer dieselbe Frage:Was würdest du deinem 10 Jahre jüngeren Ich mit dem Wissen von heute raten?In dieser Episode hörst du einen Zusammenschnitt aller Interviewgäste dieses Jahres, die genau diese Frage beantwortet haben. Unterschiedliche Lebenswege, unterschiedliche Businessmodelle, unterschiedliche Erfahrungen – und doch ziehen sich erstaunlich ähnliche Themen durch alle Antworten.Ich teile zu Beginn auch meine eigene Perspektive auf diese Frage. Sehr ehrlich, sehr persönlich.Denn jedes Jahr verändert sich die Antwort ein bisschen. Und genau darin liegt die Kraft dieser Reflexion.Diese Folge ist keine To-do-Liste und kein Jahresplan.Sie ist eine Einladung, innezuhalten, zuzuhören und dich selbst zu fragen, was du heute deinem früheren Ich sagen würdest – und was das für dein kommendes Jahr bedeutet.Vielleicht erkennst du dich in manchen Stimmen wieder.Vielleicht triggert dich etwas.Vielleicht entsteht daraus ein neuer Gedanke, der dich ins nächste Jahr begleitet.

Is going solo really the best way to scale a short-term rental business—or can the right partnership take you further, faster?In this episode, we sit down with Evan Davison and Evan Montgomery to unpack what actually happens when two ambitious operators decide to merge their short-term rental businesses. We talk openly about dividing roles using the visionary and integrator model, building trust, and navigating the real challenges of scaling while maintaining a boutique guest experience. The conversation also explores team leadership, growing pains, and how personal life and fatherhood intersect with running a fast-growing STR operation. This episode offers honest insights, real lessons, and practical perspective for anyone considering partnership or scaling in the short-term rental space.Things we discussed in this episode:The process and mindset behind merging two short-term rental businesses into one partnership.Distinct roles of visionary and integrator, inspired by "Rocket Fuel" and "Traction."Challenges and operational hurdles in integrating company back-ends, systems, and teams.Strategies for team building—hiring, training, and retaining VAs, cleaners, and contractors.Communication methods for maintaining alignment and problem resolution in a partnership.Vetting and educating owner leads, with a focus on budgets and design expectations.Maintaining boutique-level service and personal touch as the business scales.Market differences between Columbus, OH, and other markets like Provincetown, MA.Balancing business demands with family and fatherhood, planning for parental leave.The importance of specialized service providers—designers, photographers, real estate agents—and their impact on rental success.Get in touch with Evan Davison and Evan Montgomery:Instagram - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/aesthetic_p.g/Facebook - ⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/AestheticPropertyGroupWebsite - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.stupendousstays.com/ https://www.aestheticpg.com/#SmartStayShow #realestate #realestateinvestor #realestateagent #RealEstateInvesting #ShortTermRentals #BusinessPartnership #VacationRental #Entrepreneurship#PropertyManagement #TeamBuilding #STRBusiness#RealEstateInvesting #WorkLifeBalance #RentalSuccessFollow Us!Join Jason Muth of Prideaway Stays and Straightforward Short-Term Rentals and Real Estate Attorney / Broker Rory Gill for the first episode of SmartStay Show!Following and subscribing to SmartStay Show not only ensures that you'll get instant updates whenever we release a new episode, but it also helps us reach more people who could benefit from the valuable content that we provide.SmartStay Show ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Prideaway Stays ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Straightforward Short-Term Rentals ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Attorney Rory Gill ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Jason Muth on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Zu Beginn gehen Prof. Niko Härting und Dr. Stefan Brink einleitend auf das Urteil des LG München v. 11.11.2025 (Az. 42 O 14139/24) im Fall GEMA/Chat-GPT ein und sprechen über die Beweisfragen, mit denen sich die Richter befassen mussten. Ab Minute (06:17) thematisieren Brink und Härting eine Entscheidung des OLG Frankfurt v. 28.10.2025 Az. 3 VAs 9/25 , welche einen Antrag nach § 23 EGGVG einer nonbinären Person zum Gegenstand hatte, die sich gegen eine falsche Anrede des Gerichts wehren wollte. Das OLG Frankfurt betrachtete die Anrede als einen Ausdruck der richterlichen Unabhängigkeit. Brink und Härting können dieser Bewertung nicht zustimmen. Anschließend widmen sich Härting und Brink dem Datenschutz: Ein Bußgeld in Höhe von 492.000 Euro der Hamburger Datenschutzbehörde gegen ein Finanzinstitut ist ab Minute (14:23) Thema. Kreditanträge mehrerer Kund:innen wurden aufgrund einer automatisierten Entscheidung abgelehnt. Über die Videoüberwachung von Studierenden bei Online-Prüfungen während der Coronapandemie mittels ,,Proctoring-Software“ sprechen Härting und Brink ab Minute (20:18). Ist die Einwilligung der Studierenden zum Einsatz der Gesichtserkennungssoftware wirksam gewesen? Kann eine betroffene Lehramtsstudentin vor dem OLG Thüringen erfolgreich Schadensersatz nach Art. 82 DSGVO von der Universität Erfurt verlangen?

"Este es nuestro sexto disco, pero se siente como el primero". Con estas palabras presentan las catalanas Mourn su primer trabajo en castellano, 'Letra Ligada', grabado en los estudios Casa Linda de Cala Vento con el noruego Kenneth Ishak (Beezwax) a los mandos. Durante la charla también pinchamos y comentamos lo más nuevo de Wednesday, y La Joya, escuchamos el proyecto en solitario de Carla Pérez Vas (su guitarra) y nos despedimos con sus compañeras de sello Maria Iskariot. Enjoy!

En aquel tiempo, el ángel Gabriel fue enviado por Dios a una ciudad de Galilea, llamada Nazaret, a una virgen desposada con un varón de la estirpe de David, llamado José. La virgen se llamaba María.Entró el ángel a donde ella estaba y le dijo: “Alégrate, llena de gracia, el Señor está contigo”. Al oír estas palabras, ella se preocupó mucho y se preguntaba qué querría decir semejante saludo.El ángel le dijo: “No temas, María, porque has hallado gracia ante Dios. Vas a concebir y a dar a luz un hijo y le pondrás por nombre Jesús. Él será grande y será llamado Hijo del Altísimo; el Señor Dios le dará el trono de David, su padre, y él reinará sobre la casa de Jacob por los siglos y su reinado no tendrá fin”.María le dijo entonces al ángel: “¿Cómo podrá ser esto, puesto que yo permanezco virgen?” El ángel le contestó: “El Espíritu Santo descenderá sobre ti y el poder del Altísimo te cubrirá con su sombra. Por eso, el Santo, que va a nacer de ti, será llamado Hijo de Dios. Ahí tienes a tu parienta Isabel, que a pesar de su vejez, ha concebido un hijo y ya va en el sexto mes la que llamaban estéril, porque no hay nada imposible para Dios”. María contestó: “Yo soy la esclava del Señor; cúmplase en mí lo que me has dicho”. Y el ángel se retiró de su presencia.

Episode Overview In this episode of the John Kitchens Coach Podcast, John Kitchens and Joel Perso close out the Agent to CEO six-part series by unpacking the final and most critical milestone: The Leadership Flywheel. This conversation is all about building a self-managing, self-sustaining team—one that doesn't rely on you as the bottleneck. John and Joel break down how elite leaders design lean organizational structures, recruit true A-players, and create leadership development systems that generate momentum instead of burnout. If you've ever felt trapped by your team, overwhelmed by people decisions, or unsure how to scale without chaos, this episode delivers the blueprint for moving from operator to architect—and leading at the CEO level. Key Topics Covered The Leadership Flywheel Explained What a flywheel really is—and why leadership must create momentum, not friction Why teams fail when leadership systems aren't intentional How leaders move from "doing" to designing the business Designing a Lean, Modern Org Structure Using the Functional Accountability Chart (FAC) to separate people from roles Why you must define functions before hiring humans How AI-first thinking reshapes org design and eliminates unnecessary roles A-Players, Defined What an A-player actually is (and what they are not) Why "job done 90% of the time within the pay range" is the real standard How resourcefulness separates high performers from everyone else AI, VAs, and Fractional Talent The correct order: AI → VAs → Fractional → Full-time Why hiring out of pain creates long-term damage How modern leaders raise the talent ceiling while lowering overhead Scorecards, Agreements, and Ownership Why expectations fail—and agreements win How data-driven scorecards eliminate ambiguity Creating clear ownership so leaders stop rescuing their team Leadership Development That Scales Why leadership isn't just for managers—it's for everyone Creating micro-leadership opportunities inside your organization The power of daily wins, public accountability, and cultural ownership Preventing Burnout in A-Players Why C-players burn out A-players faster than workload How to identify when roles need to split before performance drops Monitoring hours, opportunity alignment, and growth paths Resources & Mentions The Agent to CEO Framework Functional Accountability Chart (FAC) Honey Badger Nation John Kitchens Executive Coaching → JohnKitchens.coach Concepts from Jim Collins, Patrick Lencioni, David Marquet Final Takeaway You don't scale by hiring more people—you scale by designing better leadership systems. The Leadership Flywheel isn't about control. It's about clarity, ownership, and momentum. When leaders design the structure, recruit intentionally, and develop leadership at every level, the business stops relying on them—and starts growing without them.

+ Del Evangelio según san Lucas +En aquel tiempo, el ángel Gabriel fue enviado por Dios a una ciudad de Galilea, llamada Nazaret, a una virgen desposada con un varón de la estirpe de David, llamado José. La virgen se llamaba María.Entró el ángel a donde ella estaba y le dijo: "Alégrate, llena de gracia, el Señor está contigo". Al oír estas palabras, ella se preocupó mucho y se preguntaba qué querría decir semejante saludo. El ángel le dijo: "No temas, María, porque has hallado gracia ante Dios. Vas a concebir y a dar a luz un hijo y le pondrás por nombre Jesús. Él será grande y será llamado Hijo del Altísimo; el Señor Dios le dará el trono de David, su padre, y él reinará sobre la casa de Jacob por los siglos y su reinado no tendrá fin". María le dijo entonces al ángel: "¿Cómo podrá ser esto, puesto que yo permanezco virgen?" El ángel le contestó: "El Espíritu Santo descenderá sobre ti y el poder del Altísimo te cubrirá con su sombra. Por eso, el Santo, que va a nacer de ti, será llamado Hijo de Dios. Ahí tienes a tu parienta Isabel, que a pesar de su vejez, ha concebido un hijo y ya va en el sexto mes la que llamaban estéril, porque no hay nada imposible para Dios". María contestó: "Yo soy la esclava del Señor; cúmplase en mí lo que me has dicho". Y el ángel se retiró de su presencia.Palabra del Señor.

You started your business for freedom, but now you're working more than ever. You're stuck in the weeds, and the idea of handing tasks to someone else feels like letting them borrow your own child. Sound familiar? In this episode, Kevin from the Pro Sulum team unpacks the brutal psychology behind why delegation feels impossible—and exposes the three big lies keeping you trapped in your business instead of working ON it. If you're dealing with burnout, working 60+ hour weeks, or convinced that "no one can do it like you can," this episode will challenge everything you think you know about delegation. This isn't your typical "just hire a VA" advice. This is about understanding the psychological barriers, dismantling the lies, and building systems that actually set you free.

How do you run an entire business in 42 minutes a day? By using international Virtual Assistants. But not in the way you think. In fact, everything you know about hiring and working with VAs is wrong. In this episode, Matt Raad interviews Josh Thomas, who built four seven-figure businesses using a simple VA system.Want To Learn How To Buy Websites for Income and Financial Independence?You don't need tech skills or prior experience, just the right strategy and a proven plan.

Tired of saying it's faster if I do it myself? We dive into a practical, human way to break the bottleneck and build a business that runs with you, not because of you. Our guest, Brittany Bettini of I Need a VA, lays out a straightforward blueprint: start with a life audit, delegate low-joy work, and capture your “pie recipe” in clear SOPs so results stay consistent even when hands change.We get honest about control, especially the hyper-independence many women entrepreneurs carry into their businesses. Brittany shares how she moved from doing everything to doing only what lights her up—coaching, teaching, creating—while VAs handle operations, inboxes, research, scheduling, design assets, and home tasks like groceries and laundry. The key isn't just offloading tasks; it's choosing what to keep based on joy, genius, and revenue impact, then backing the rest with documentation that a new hire can follow on day one.You'll hear how to use Loom and AI to turn screen recordings into step-by-step SOPs, why in-house virtual assistants (especially experienced Filipino VAs) protect your IP and culture, and how to structure training so your team writes and updates the manuals as they work. We cover mistakes to avoid—like over-relying on agencies for core functions—and the management rhythms that keep quality high without micromanaging: clear outcomes, visible dashboards, and monthly SOP reviews. Think of delegation like a pendulum: initial training takes time and money, then the swing returns with compounding freedom, focus, and revenue.If you're ready to stop being the bottleneck and start being the leader, this conversation gives you the tools and the nudge to move. Read more HERESupport the show

Are you updating your Instagram bio for the millionth time, trying to figure out if you're an OBM, VA, or project manager? Every time you say one of those titles, it feels like wearing someone else's clothes that don't quite fit. You pick "OBM" because it sounds legit, but then clients expect you to do everything, and half of it you don't even want to do.Industry labels like OBM and VA are just buckets.

In this episode, I'm breaking down why trying to fit yourself into these generic labels is killing your business, how it's attracting the wrong clients, and exactly how to create your own positioning that makes you the obvious choice for your ideal clients.Key Points Covered:✨ Why industry labels are descriptive, not prescriptive, and how using generic terms attracts generic expectations✨ The real reason you're burnt out: you're attracting clients who want everything when you only love doing specific things✨ How to create your own positioning that makes your ideal clients say "this is exactly what I need" (plus a real client transformation story)

Episode NotesTune in as the team discusses:Why “I'm too busy” is often a sign that you need a time-buying business, not a reason to avoid one.How just 30–60 minutes a day can build momentum and replace hours of wasted scrolling or noise.The power of doing a simple time audit to uncover hidden hours in your week.How Scott and Jon managed the land business while working full-time, raising kids, and dealing with life.Why momentum matters more than perfection — even 1–2 hours a week can fuel progress.How routines, time blocking, and daily habits help you stay consistent.Why systems, VAs, and automation reduce your workload instead of adding to it.What it looks like when “the script flips” and the business starts giving you more time than it takes.How to think long-term: a temporary sacrifice now turns into long-term freedom later.Community tips for staying focused: social media fasts, dopamine detox, Pomodoro timers, and schedule resets. TIP OF THE WEEK“Do a time audit. You have more time than you think — you're just spending it driving, scrolling, or zoning out. Swap 30 minutes a day for learning land investing, and it will buy your time back later.” — Scott Bossman“Automate and delegate early. Don't hold on to every task. Free up your time so you can focus on deals, growth, and the parts of the business that matter most.” — Mike Zaino“Don't stop. Momentum doesn't maintain itself — whether you have one hour a week or ten, keep moving. The small steps you take now eventually give you all your time back.” — Jon BurnettWANT MORE?Enjoyed this episode?

In this conversation with entrepreneur and outsourcing leader Carmen Williams, we unpack the moment she walked into work, felt a physical “no” in her stomach, and quit her job that same day. No plan, no runway, no strategy deck—just bravery born from clarity.This episode isn't about hustle culture. It's about permission—to pivot, to shrink your life, to rebuild your identity, and to stop performing your way into burnout.We explore why corporate stability is an illusion, why minimalism creates freedom, how virtual teams scale your capacity, and why the “first hire fantasy” founders chase is usually wrong.We also talk about life after collapse—the rebirth that happens when you stop clinging to the version of yourself that was built to survive, not thrive.No hype. Just the quiet courage of starting over.TL;DR* The brave pivot: Carmen quit her job in one day after realizing life is short and fear is expensive.* Job security is riskier than entrepreneurship: One employer = one point of failure.* Minimalism is leverage: Less stuff, lower burn rate, fewer emergencies.* Founders hire the wrong “clone”: You don't need another visionary—you need a steady executor.* AI + VAs is the winning combo: AI increases the demand for great operators; it doesn't replace them (yet).* Saying “no” builds more trust than yes: Filtering clients improves ROI and reputation.What we unpack1. The moment you stop pretending you have timeCarmen's turning point came when her mother was diagnosed with a terminal illness—20 years older than her. Mortality compresses priorities.She realized: “If I knew I had 20 years left, would I stay here?”Her answer was a clean no.2. The illusion of corporate safetyDoug reflects on climbing into bigger houses and bigger bills—only to realize everything you own also owns a piece of you.Entrepreneurs face volatility monthly.Employees face catastrophe suddenly.Pick your pain.3. Minimalism as a business strategyDoug downsized from 3,800 sq ft → 560 sq ft.Less space. Fewer things. More intention.The easy life is the one with fewer dependencies.4. Why founders hire the wrong personalityEntrepreneurs imagine a “mini-me” assistant—someone spontaneous, creative, high-initiative.What they need is the opposite:A detail-driven operator who finishes what the founder starts.5. How Carmen accidentally built a 100-person outsourcing companyShe hired VAs for her own consulting practice.People kept asking for help.She kept saying no—until the market refused to let her.No website. No pitch deck. Twenty VAs anyway.6. Why AI doesn't replace VAs—it amplifies themHer teams use AI as a force multiplier, not a threat.Training loops, outside experts, and self-directed learning have made her VAs more valuable—not redundant.Memorable lines* “If you only have one income stream, you don't have stability—you have a trap.”* “Minimalism isn't aesthetic. It's leverage.”* “Your first hire shouldn't be you—it should be your opposite.”* “The day you stop pretending you have time is the day you become brave.”* “AI doesn't replace people. It replaces excuses.”GuestCarmen Williams — Founder & CEO of a global outsourcing agency supporting 100+ virtual assistants across multiple industries.
