You didn\u2019t build your company to babysit it. But if you\u2019re still the one making every call, solving every fire, and holding the reins so tightly no one else can lead...this episode is your wake-up call. In this second installment of the special mini-series on the seven essential transitions every successful woman must navigate when she knows it\u2019s time for something new, Kris explores what it really means to step into the advisory consultant role for the very business you created and the team you built. If you\u2019ve ever felt the urge to evolve beyond the business you built, this is your roadmap\u2014and your invitation.  It\u2019s not just about delegation. It\u2019s about identity. Because learning to release control doesn\u2019t start with your team\u2014it starts with you. Letting go of being the person who approves every decision, solves every problem, or catches every dropped ball requires more than systems\u2014it requires a shift in who you believe yourself to be. Kris walks through why founders get stuck in a cycle of over-functioning, how perfectionism masks fear, and why holding the metaphorical bat too tightly means no one else will dare take a swing. Here\u2019s what we explore:  The difference between being essential and being in the way Why your team may be relying on you more than they need to What mentorship and true leadership actually look like How to grow your business by getting out of the weeds What really happens\u2014emotionally and practically\u2014when you loosen your grip  This episode calls you forward\u2014not to abandon your company, but to evolve into a different kind of leader: one who guides instead of manages, who advises instead of reacts, and who trusts her team to rise.
