How To Scale Your Business Without Burni...

Dan Sullivan and Strategic Coach
About this episode

Do you struggle with scaling your business because you’re still doing everything yourself? In this episode, healthcare entrepreneur Nicole Serena shares how she shifted from solopreneur to CEO by implementing Strategic Coach® lessons—delegating to experts, focusing on her unique skills, and adopting an abundance mindset—and how she 10x’d her business without burning out or sacrificing innovation.

 

Here’s some of what you’ll learn in this episode:

  • Why the healthcare system is under unprecedent pressure—and where the biggest gaps exist for entrepreneurs.
  • The critical mindset shift that all entrepreneurs must make if they want to grow.
  • Why trying to do everything yourself is the fastest path to burnout (and how to avoid it).
  • Why business coaching should be viewed as an investment, not a cost.
  • Why Nicole became an entrepreneur in the healthcare industry.
  • The mindset change that helped Nicole scale her business without sacrificing her sanity.
  • How to find the right person for every role.
  • Why the healthcare system needs innovative problem solvers.
  • The limitless growth potential in healthcare.

 

Show Notes:

 

AI has revolutionized healthcare, delivering results in minutes instead of months.

 

Strategic Coach teaches entrepreneurs to focus on their strengths and build teams for the rest.

 

Doctors can’t compete with patients who self-educate via social media.

 

Healthcare is largely a disease-management industry, not a wellness system.

 

Canada’s healthcare system is fragile—but also ripe for innovation.

 

Entrepreneurship can be isolating without the right peer support.

 

If you’re busy trying to be an expert at everything, you may miss out on critical opportunities.

 

Delegation frees up mental space for creativity and strategy.

 

It’s important to unplug and recharge so that you can be there for your clients, your team, and your community.

 

Your Unique Ability® is your superpower—what only you can do exceptionally and joyfully.

 

Leading a team can be scary, especially for first-time entrepreneurs.

 

Strategic Coach connects entrepreneurs to accelerate learning and growth.
