Let me guess — your team still pings you for every little thing, and that SOP you swore you'd write is still just a blank Google Doc mocking you from your drive.

This episode isn’t about operations — it’s about freedom. Because if your business can’t run without you, you’re not leading a business… you’re babysitting one. Today, I’ll show you how smart CEOs use SOPs that scale — without boring themselves (or their team) to death. And yes, we’re making SOPs sexy again. Let’s go.

In this episode, you’ll learn…

  • Why SOPs aren’t documentation, they’re delegation 
  • The 3-step founder-friendly formula to creating systems fast
  • How AI tools  can cut your SOP creation time in half
