Operations wizard and OBM Samantha Valentino Smith joins me to get real about building a business that actually runs — without stealing your evenings.
We dig into boundaries that add revenue, systems that buy back time, and what it really looks like to lead with both heart and logic as a homeschooling mom, military wife, and right-hand to high-profile CEOs.
You’ll learn
• Why “more clients” ≠ more freedom and how fewer, deeper retainers can be the quiet growth play.
• Three ops shifts that instantly lower stress: the Daily/Weekly/Monthly ladder, goal-backed planning, and a simple 90-minute weekly reset.
• Discovery call red flags (unrealistic timelines, vibe checks, budget mismatch) and how to qualify without people-pleasing.
• Handing off work without chaos: mapping what you really do vs. what you think you do.
• Discipline → freedom: why calendars, not vibes, create time wealth.
• AI without losing the relationship: where automation helps and where the human still wins.
