Delegating for Business Growth wasn’t always something I understood, especially when my business wasn’t thriving, and I had to juggle every task. From admin to customer support, from marketing to accounting, I did it all.
Those were some of the most exhausting and overwhelming times of my life. I can still remember what it felt like to fall asleep at my desk, overloaded with tasks, knowing that I wasn’t making the impact I wanted, but instead, just staying stuck in the daily grind.
Some days, I just wanted to give up, close everything down, and start over. But I couldn’t. I had worked too hard, and I knew there was a better way—I just needed to find it.
The Mindset Shift That Changed Everything
Then one day, something really shocking happened to me. I realised I wasn’t going to scale my business by doing it all on my own. I couldn’t continue to push through on sheer willpower alone. That’s when I decided things had to change. I needed help, and I had to learn how to delegate effectively.
It wasn’t easy.
At that time, I had a growing business, a family to care for, and no clue how to hire the right people to support me. I was short on time, money, and knowledge about outsourcing.
There were days I didn’t think I’d ever get a handle on delegation. There were days I thought it was easier just to keep doing everything myself, even though it was killing me slowly.
It didn’t help that people around me didn’t believe in the idea of outsourcing, either.
You have no idea how many times I heard comments like:
“Why even bother trying to outsource?”
“You’re too busy to train someone. It’ll take too much time.”
“No one will do it as well as you do.”
The Real Obstacle: Me
It was at that point I realised that all of these things I thought were obstacles – time, money, and lack of experience – weren’t really obstacles at all.
They were just excuses.
And the only real obstacle I had was to change my mindset and start believing that delegation was the key to moving forward.
Now, don’t get me wrong – I still had a lot to learn. I spent countless hours studying how to hire the right people, how to build effective systems, and how to train my team to succeed.

But then one day, I had a breakthrough. I realised that by bringing in high-quality, trained virtual assistants and giving them the right systems to follow, I could free up my time, scale my business, and grow my team’s productivity.
How? Because I invested in the right people, gave them the support they needed, and trusted them to handle the day-to-day tasks. This allowed me to focus on strategy, growth, and the things that only I could do in my business.
And I also made sure to constantly support my team with ongoing mentorship and training to ensure they thrived, which had a direct impact on my business growth.
