You're Not the CEO. You're the Bottleneck.

You think you're leading. You're actually drowning. Every role in your business flows through you because you haven't defined what your actual role is. Kareen breaks down why delegating feels impossible when you've never written your own job description, and how the leaders who actually scale are the ones willing to hire people to replace themselves everywhere else. But here's what most miss: hiring isn't the hard part. The hard part is showing up for people consistently—weekly check-ins where you're clear about what you assigned, how they performed, what needs to shift. That's where trust gets built. And if someone isn't fitting the role after a real shot, you have to be willing to let them go. Strong leadership isn't control. It's the courage to trust others because you trust yourself first.
