This week, I chat with the brilliant Ali Tate - a powerhouse business strategist who totally gets what we're going through as hospitality owners.
If you've ever felt like you're running around like a headless chicken answering guest queries instead of driving your business forward (um, guilty as charged🙋♀️), then this episode is YOUR wake-up call.
Ali and I dive into that tricky juggling act we all know too well - trying to be a fantastic host while also being the CEO your business desperately needs you to be. And let's be honest, when you throw family commitments into the mix, it can feel completely overwhelming.
But here's the thing... it doesn't HAVE to be this way...
We unpack how to step back from the day-to-day firefighting (even when it feels impossible!), create a proper business strategy that doesn't just live in your head, get smart about delegation (no, you DON'T need to wash all those towels yourself), and structure your time so you have some left for yourself and your family.
Ready to put on your CEO hat and take back control of your business AND your life? This episode is packed with practical, no-nonsense advice that you can implement right away.

Key Takeaways
- Put on that CEO hat - stop just reacting to whatever guest drama pops up next and start carving out time to think bigger about where you're actually heading with your business.
- Regular catch-ups with your partner or team are absolute game-changers! They clear up who's doing what, stop those "I thought YOU were handling that" moments, and make sure things actually get done.
- Boundaries are not just nice-to-haves, they're must-haves! If you don't draw the line between your business and personal life, you'll end up resenting the very business you worked so hard to build (trust me, I've been there!).
- Small tweaks can make HUGE differences. Even just blocking out 30 minutes a week to think strategically about your business can transform how efficiently you run things - and put more profit in your pocket.
