From Overwhelmed to Optimized

Kirsten Graham

Podcast Episode 271

If you’ve ever found yourself buried in tasks, juggling all the things, and wondering, “Isn’t there a better way to grow?”—this episode is for you.

I sat down with Kirsten, an expert in sustainable business growth and smart delegation, to talk about something every entrepreneur needs to start using: outsourcing. And spoiler alert - it’s not about hiring a team just because “you should.” It’s about doing it strategically, at the right time, and for the right reasons.

Here’s what we cover in the episode:

1. A Fresh Take on Delegation

Kirsten breaks down why trying to do everything yourself isn’t a badge of honour but a burnout recipe. We talk about how successful business owners reclaim their time and energy by identifying which tasks actually need to be outsourced (and which ones don’t).

2. A Simple Roadmap to Scale Without Sacrificing Your Life

Scaling doesn’t have to mean more hours, more pressure, and more hustle. Kirsten shares a sustainable approach to growth that includes building solid support systems and creating boundaries that protect your nights, weekends, and sanity.

3. Mistakes Most Entrepreneurs Make When Outsourcing

This part of the conversation gets real. We talk about the traps so many business owners fall into, like hiring too soon, delegating without direction, or expecting a VA to read your mind, then she explains how to avoid them. You’ll leave with clarity, not confusion.

Why This Episode Matters:

Too often, outsourcing is seen as either a luxury or a last resort. But done right, it can be one of the smartest ways to protect your time, scale your impact, and feel less alone in your business. Whether you're hiring your first VA or building a full team, this episode gives you the tools to do it better and with way less stress.
