Building a Team That Works: The Real Talk on Growth, Support & Productivity
Running a business while being a mum? It’s no small feat. You’re juggling school runs, client calls, never-ending emails, and somewhere in between, trying to build a team that actually works.
In this episode, Leah and Jess break down the reality of team building—without the sugar-coating. Because let’s be real: growing a team isn’t just about hiring people. It’s about building a structure that fits you, investing in personal development, and creating a work environment where everyone thrives (without you micromanaging every step).
They’ll talk about why team dynamics should never be one-size-fits-all, why communication and accountability actually drive retention, and how to stop wasting time on tasks that don’t move the needle. Plus, they’ll dive into what a team can really look like in a service-based business—because spoiler alert, it’s not always a full-time staff sitting in an office.
In this episode, we cover:
🤎 How team structures vary (and why there’s no ‘right’ way)
🤎 The real key to keeping great people on your team
🤎 Why support networks matter more than ever for mums in business
🤎 The power of personal development in leadership
🤎 How to let go of low-impact tasks and focus on growth
Team building isn’t about doing what everyone else does—it’s about creating something that works for you. If you’ve ever wondered how to build a team without the stress, this one’s for you.
