You care about the team you lead. You say yes more often than you should. You take on the extra work so your team doesn’t have to. And now you’re running on empty.
Kristen Hadeed knows that place well. She started Student Maid at 19 to buy a pair of jeans. Forty-five people quit on her in one day. She wrote a bestseller about it. Then, more than a decade in, she caught her reflection in a window and didn’t recognize the person looking back.
In this episode, host Tyler Dickerhoof, and Kristen Hadeed dig into the belief that was causing her to drown in shame: “It’s my job to keep people happy.” Where it started. What it cost her. And how she let it go.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
How to spot the hidden belief driving your leadership decisions
Why saying no is kind, both to you and to the other person
The weekly 1–10 capacity check-in Kristen’s team uses to stop burnout before it starts
Why Navy SEALs train at an 8, not a 10
