You hired support…
now let’s make sure they actually help

Hiring your first contractor is exciting but no one really talks about what happens AFTER someone accepts the job.

The moment where you quietly start wondering if you’ve made a very expensive mistake.

Suddenly you’re asking yourself things like…

  • Should I delegate this?
  • Am I giving enough direction… or too much?
  • Why am I still fixing everything before it goes to the client?
  • How do I give feedback without feeling like the bad guy?
  • What if I hired the wrong person?

Most entrepreneurs believe that if you hire the right person, everything will naturally fall into place.

But even the best team member can’t read your mind.

Your first team is one of the biggest investments you’ll make in your business

And because of that, it’s enough for them to simply take work off your plate.

When you invest in support, that investment should help your business become more profitable.

It should give you more capacity to take on clients, improve your client experience, and free you up to spend your time where it actually makes the biggest impact.

But that doesn’t happen just because you’ve hired a great contractor.

You have to lead them well.

But that only happens if you know how to:

  • Delegate the right work
  • Communicate expectations clearly
  • Build systems that create consistency
  • Give feedback that helps people improve
  • Build trust on both sides of the working relationship

If not, you stunt your business’s growth and spend way more time explaining rather than doing. 

Or you redo work because “It’s just faster if I do it.”

And suddenly you’re paying someone every month… while somehow working even more than you were before.

Leadership isn’t about micromanaging…
It’s about trust

And before you roll your eyes and think, “I know, I know… everyone says that,” hear me out.

Everyone tells you to trust your team and they’re right. 👏

But I think we’ve accidentally turned that into a one-way conversation.

Your team needs to trust you, too.

When I see entrepreneurs struggling with their first contractor, it’s rarely because they’ve hired the wrong person. Most of the time, they’ve hired someone who’s genuinely capable and wants to do a great job. The problem is that they’re trying to do that while filling in the blanks.

They’re wondering if they’re making the right decision, but they don’t want to ask another question because they feel like they’re interrupting you. They spend extra time second-guessing themselves because they’re not quite sure what “done” actually looks like.

From your perspective, it might look like they’re lacking confidence or initiative.

From their perspective, they’re just trying not to get it wrong.

The best contractors aren’t successful because they magically know what to do. They’re successful because they trust the person leading them.

They knew what’s expected and understand that feedback isn’t a signof failuer, it’s simply a part of working together.

That’s the kind of working relationship I want you to have with your team.

I don’t want you feeling like you have to review every tiny detail because you’re worried something will be missed. I don’t want your contractor waiting for your approval before they make a decision because they’re afraid of making the wrong one.

I want you to take a step back because you’ve built the kind of trust that allows your team to take ownership of their work.

That’s what great leadership looks like. 🏆

INTRODUCING

YOUR FIRST TEAM

Doors close on July 13th, 2026 | We start July 16th, 2026

This is a 4 week intensive designed to help service providers confidently lead their first team. Together, we build the leadership skills no one hands you after you’ve hired.

Let’s walk through what happens each week:

We’ll start with one of the biggest questions every new leader asks:

“What do I actually hand off?”

Because if you delegate the wrong things (or hand work off without enough context), you usually end up creating more work for yourself instead of less.

By the end of the week, you’ll know how to:

  • Confidently decide what stays on your plate and what your contractor should own
  • Delegate work in a way that reduces questions and back-and-forth
  • Set your contractor up for success before they even begin a task
  • Spend less time explaining and more time focusing on the work only you can do
  • Use a simple delegation framework you can apply every single week

Now you have a delegation process you can come back to again and again, so you’re no longer making decisions on the fly.

Once you’ve delegated the work, the next question becomes:

“How do I actually manage it without micromanaging?”

It’s easy to assume that once a task is assigned, it’s off your plate. But if priorities aren’t clear or your contractor doesn’t know what’s most important, you’ll still find yourself answering questions and jumping back in to fix things.

By the end of the week, you’ll know how to:

  • Assign work with clear expectations so your contractor knows exactly what’s expected
  • Prioritize projects so your team is always focused on the work that matters most
  • Spot roadblocks before they impact deadlines or your client experience
  • Manage workloads without accidentally overloading your contractor
  • Create more space in your own schedule because you’re no longer managing every tiny detail

Now you have a workflow that keeps projects moving without making you the middle person for every decision.

The #1 mindset shift I want you to make is seeing systems as more than just documentation.

Good systems give your contractor the confidence to work independently because they know where to find answers, what “done well” looks like, and how things are meant to be completed.

By the end of the week, you’ll know how to:

  • Find answers without needing to message you every time they get stuck
  • Deliver more consistent work that protects your client experience
  • Take ownership of their role with greater confidence
  • Complete recurring tasks more efficiently because expectations are documented
  • Help your business run more smoothly (even when you’re not involved)

Now you have practical systems that support your team without making your business feel overly complicated.

If giving feedback makes you uncomfortable, this is for you!

Most of us were never taught how to have those conversations, so we either avoid them altogether or wait until we’re frustrated enough that the conversation feels much bigger than it needed to be.

By the end of the week, you’ll know how to:

  • Give constructive feedback in a way that builds confidence instead of defensiveness.
  • Navigate difficult conversations without avoiding them or overthinking them.
  • Create accountability while maintaining a positive working relationship.
  • Handle mistakes as learning opportunities instead of ongoing frustrations.
  • Build the kind of trust that helps your contractor take ownership and do their best work.

Now you know how to make feedback a normal part of working together, so small issues don’t turn into big ones.

The questions you’re probably already asking…

I’d actually argue this is the best time to learn how to lead.

When you have one contractor, you’re setting the standard for every hire that comes after them. The habits you build now (how you delegate, communicate, and give feedback) become the culture of your business.

It’s much easier to build good leadership habits from the beginning than it is to fix them later when you’ve got three contractors all working differently because nobody was ever given the same expectations.

So yes, this intensive is absolutely for you!

Can we retire the idea that people are either “natural leaders” or they’re not?

I’ve worked with incredibly kind, thoughtful business owners who were convinced they weren’t cut out for leadership simply because nobody had ever shown them how to do it.

Leadership isn’t a personality type.

  • It’s knowing how to delegate without creating confusion.
  • It’s communicating expectations clearly.
  • It’s having conversations you’d probably rather avoid.

These learned skills, not personality traits.

Most leadership training assumes you’re managing employees inside a large company.

You’re not.

You’re trying to lead contractors while serving clients, delivering work, running a business, and remembering to eat lunch before 3 p.m.

It’s a completely different world.

You don’t need to become the world’s greatest manager, but you need to know how to confidently grow a small, profitable team without feeling like every decision still has to go through you.

I wish.

Even the best contractor is stepping into a business they didn’t build.

So they don’t know your priorities nor what “great work” looks like to you.

They also don’t know which client gets a little extra attention or which process you quietly tweak every single time.

All of it lives inside your head and systems are how you close the gap.

Please ask them!

Seriously.

I’d much rather have a conversation before you join than have you wondering whether this is the right fit.

This isn’t another hiring course...
this is what comes next

Because hiring someone doesn’t automatically give you your time back. It doesn’t automatically make your business more profitable. And it definitely doesn’t mean your contractor will know exactly what to do from day one.

Learning how to lead is what makes all of this possible.

You’ll learn how to delegate with confidence, communicate clearly, and build the kind of working relationship where your contractor feels supported, your clients have a consistent experience, and you finally feel like the investment you’ve made in your team is paying off.
