Procrastination isn’t just a bad habit—it’s a silent business killer. In this insightful and hilarious episode of The Business Fix, Chrissy and Josh get real about the ways procrastination shows up in business—from avoiding hard conversations to putting off growth-driving tasks like rebuilding a sales team or launching a new website.

They open up about their own procrastination pitfalls and share relatable stories (including a role-playing firing exercise that goes hilariously wrong). You’ll learn how procrastination hides behind “busy work,” how to recognize the emotional blockers, and how to create structure that helps you actually move the needle—without burning out.

Whether you're a business owner trying to scale or a manager drowning in decision fatigue, this episode gives you practical strategies, mindset shifts, and a few good laughs to help you tackle what matters most.
