Episode Summary


Delegation has been a core topic, you know, I am very passionate about. So, I am super thrilled to have NaTandya Dowell, in today’s podcast episode as we discuss the pitfalls of delegation of work and why delegating effectively as a small business owner can be very hard! 


It’s known that a lot of solopreneurs turned into entrepreneurs have difficulty on how to de delegate. This is hugely because they thought of the business idea, built their business way up, and developed it further hence their strong attachment to their business. While this is valid, this is the pitfall many small business owners are dragged into, eventually leading them to get stuck.
