Ever find yourself running from one task to another---dropping off packages, managing carpools, juggling emails---and wondering, "When did I become my own assistant?" In this episode, Wendy Papasan and Kymber Lovett-Menkiti dive deep into the exact moment you know it's time to hire a personal assistant and how doing so can transform your business…and your life.

We explore what "buying back your time" really means, how to calculate your hourly rate so you can focus on the work that truly matters, and why hiring help isn't a luxury---it's leverage. You'll learn how to identify your signs of burnout, what qualities to look for in the right assistant (from ownership mindset to tech confidence), and practical ways to set them up for success---from defining 90 days to success to creating daily check-ins and clear rhythms of communication.

If you've ever struggled to let go of control or wondered if you can really afford help, this conversation will help you see that you can't afford not to. Empire builders don't do everything---they design systems and surround themselves with people who make it all possible.
