Are you drowning in decisions that shouldn’t need you?

  • Surrounded by smart people who’ve forgotten how to think
  • Running harder just to stay in the same place
  • Your calendar is full but progress feels empty

Your business needs a CEO but you’re stuck playing founder-as-firefighter

The worst part is you built this trap yourself. One helpful intervention at a time.

Here’s what’s actually happening:

You’ve hit the Founder Dependency Ceiling

At its core, It’s an identity problem. And until you fix it, your business literally cannot grow faster than your personal bandwidth.

“Just run it by [your name]” has become your company’s most expensive phrase.

At $200K, founder hustle can be great. You can outwork any problem.

At $500k+ That same solo hustle is your kryptonite.

  • 70 hours of your time per week
  • 30+ decisions “only you can make”
  • 8 people waiting for your input
  • 1 founder running on fumes

You know what needs to happen. Delegate. Build systems. Think strategically.

But knowing and doing are different beasts when you’re the one who built this thing with your bare hands.

The Bottleneck Test

Pull last week’s calendar and count:

  • How many meetings were about decisions you shouldn’t be making?
  • How many “quick questions” turned into 45-minute conversations?
  • How many times did work stop because someone needed your approval?

If it’s more than 10, you’re running a very expensive consulting firm with one consultant.

Here’s the fastest way out so you can unlock your next level of growth:

Stop making decisions alone!

You’ve accidentally built a single-threaded system where every decision has to pass through your brain.

No parallel processing. No distributed thinking. No system redundancy.

Just you, your gut, and whatever clarity you can harness after your fourth coffee.

The solution isn’t another framework or productivity hack. It’s ending the isolation that’s slowly killing both you and your company’s potential.

Elevate CEO: Where Founders Become CEOs

This isn’t another conference or a glorified vacation with whiteboards.

It’s 2.5-day intense days of identity and operational reconstruction where 10 founders shed their dependency chains and emerge as strategic CEOs.
