In my conversations with women, I’ve discovered that we just don’t ask for or seek enough help. We feel like we have to do everything ourselves, and this leaves us feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, and on the brink of burnout. In this episode, I talk about building your own support system. I take you behind the scenes and share how I’ve built teams to help me in various areas of my business and my life.

On this episode of Promote Yourself to CEO:

4:03 - When building your own support system, you can focus on several areas. I start with discussing the different ways I receive support in my business.

8:29 - Doing this used to take up a HUGE amount of my time. I talk about it and how my Director of Operations, customer support team, and program coordinator are life savers!

14:42 - I have more people behind the scenes I’m in contact with to occasionally help me on the business side of things.

17:09 - My personal success team at home helps me manage my health. This area is one where a lot of women entrepreneurs still hold on to some old-fashioned norms.

23:21 - I discuss the final area of support I receive. It’s something I wasn’t even sure I’d talk about on the show.

28:18 - You’ve got a permission slip to ask yourself: Where do I need support?
