Working IN vs Working ON Your Business (Why You’re Overworked & Stuck): Weekly Momentum | Ep22
Do you actually know what your job is in your business?
Not your title. Not your brand vibe. Your real job.
In this episode of Weekly Momentum, we unpack why so many capable small business owners feel overwhelmed, busy, and stuck—and how it often comes down to one missing piece: clarity around your role as the business owner.
If you spend most of your time working in your business but rarely working on it, this episode will help you shift out of employee mode and into intentional leadership.
You’ll learn:
- The difference between working IN vs ON your business (and why it matters)
- Why most business owners default to technician mode
- How to design an ideal weekly schedule that supports growth
- What a time audit reveals about where your time is really going
- How Weekly Momentum works as a weekly strategic planning session
- How Pomodoros and time blocking protect CEO time
- How color coding your week reveals whether you’re leading—or reacting
This episode is for small business owners who want clarity, structure, and momentum—without burnout.
