Delegation isn't a productivity hack. It's the difference between being seen as a great executor and being seen as a leader. In this episode, I break down the three lies keeping you stuck as a doer and how to shift your mindset today. Join my live workshop at morewomenpromoted.com/delegate to put this into practice.

If you're still doing too much at work—even though you have a team—this episode is for you.

I walk through the three lies high-performing women tell themselves about delegation, why these beliefs keep you indispensable but not promotable, and how to reframe delegation as leadership development (not dumping work). You'll also hear why men delegate more than women despite equal intentions, and what research tells us about the guilt and conditioning that holds us back.
