| 0:00.0 | The thing is, is if you want to scale your leadership without losing your damn mind, |
| 0:04.4 | you can't be every person's best friend. And it sucks because you probably really like the people |
| 0:09.0 | that you've hired and you want to create a great team. I get it because I'm the same way. |
| 0:12.4 | At some point, you have to realize that your desire to have relationship with every single person |
| 0:17.2 | that's very deep and you give them all the time in the world might actually be holding your |
| 0:20.6 | business or your team back. What's up guys? Welcome back to build. And today I want to talk |
| 0:26.1 | about a transition that every leader makes, which is going from one-on-one to one to many. |
| 0:32.8 | So this was top of mind for me because I think at different points in your business journey, |

| 1:17.3 | talk to everybody individually at once. I personally was reminded of that myself in the last week. |
| 1:24.5 | And so I thought it would be a really good topic to share because it's something that I've done |
| 1:28.1 | multiple times in my career and I have to do it over and over depending on the level of scale with |
| 1:32.3 | different groups of people each time. But I'm at a point right now where I realize it's something |
