   110 -Managing your operational debt with Tricia Harrison

   Managing Operational Debt with Tricia Harrison In this episode of the Take Your Shot Podcast, I’m joined by operations architect Tricia Harrison to talk about something so many growing business owners are dealing with without even having a name for it: operational debt. Operational debt is the structure your business owes itself because you were so focused on growing, serving clients, and generating revenue that you didn't have time to build the systems, processes, documentation, and infrastructure to support that growth. And just like financial debt, it compounds the longer you leave it untouched. Tricia and I talk about what operational debt actually looks like, how to recognize it in your own business, and where to start cleaning it up without creating another massive project that leaves you burned out. In this episode, we talk about: What operational debt is and why it tends to grow alongside your business The common places operational debt shows up, from client delivery to team management Using decision trees to reduce unnecessary questions and decision-making The difference between hiring an operations expert and hiring a virtual assistant How to audit your business for the root cause of a problem instead of simply treating the symptom Connect with Tricia You can find Tricia Harrison at The Remote Catalyst.

107 - whether or not you should share personal and political views with Emily Gbadamosi

Published 18 Jun 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] But I think it can also be a lot deeper than that. So what are some ways that you've seen values integrated and people and how they communicate and market and even show up online? Yeah. I think the other side of it is we all have our own personal beliefs. We all have our own political beliefs. And there are plenty of business owners who want to leave that out of their business. And that's fine. However, I think that especially in this day and age, social media, everything being online, it's hard to separate those two completely. And clients actually, I think, appreciate and potential clients appreciate when you do show up a lot more authentically. […]
