68 - Moving from Solopreneur to CEO in your Remote Business
Manage episode 506670180 series 3504714
You started your business for freedom. Freedom to set your own schedule, work from anywhere, and create something meaningful. But does it really feel like freedom anymore?
In this episode, Kari Lotzien dives deep into the hard truth that many entrepreneurs face: When your business relies completely on you, it’s not scalable. Kari walks you through the mindset shift required to evolve from business owner to true leader and why now is the perfect time to make that shift.
This is a powerful conversation for solopreneurs and online business owners who are starting to feel the limits of doing it all themselves. If you’re resisting growth because it means more work, or you're stuck juggling too many roles, Kari helps you recognize the signs and what to do about it.
Key Topics Discussed:
- The freedom paradox - why success can make you feel stuck
- How to tell if you’re owning your business or just owning your job
- The internal tug-of-war between scaling and protecting your time
- Questions to uncover what you really love in your business (not just what you’re good at)
- A fresh look at how your business and life goals have evolved
- The danger of ignoring opportunities because you're maxed out
- Why resistance to growth is often tied to a broken business model
- The two key questions:
- What opportunities are calling you?
- What have you been avoiding?
- Why leadership is the next step in reclaiming your freedom
