    102b Anne Gillaspie: The Truth Behind Why We Don't Ask for Help

    Send us Fan Mail Delegation gets personal in this episode. Bonnie Schutz welcomes brand therapist, founder and keynote speaker Anne Gillaspie for an honest conversation about the beliefs business owners carry into entrepreneurship, including people-pleasing, financial scarcity, overachievement and the idea that asking for help somehow means you're failing. Anne shares how her relationship with support has changed through motherhood, business ownership and personal healing, why she stopped selling services that no longer fit her life, and the lesson she's still learning: resources aren't always the real blocker. Sometimes it's the willingness to ask. They also explore paying yourself first, delegating creatively when money is tight, surrounding yourself with people who energize you and making sure the work filling your calendar actually moves the business forward. And before the episode ends, Anne gives herself an assignment: make the ask she's been avoiding. Content Note: This episode includes a personal discussion of severe burnout, postpartum struggles and suicidal thoughts. If you or someone you know is struggling or in crisis, call or text 988 to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. Support is available 24/7.

    102 Sonia Barney: Finding the Right Support for Your Interior Design Business

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Delegate 2 Elevate: Get Stuff Done, Bonnie Schutz sits down with Sonia Barney, award-winning interior designer and founder of Kaivari, a platform helping interior designers find the right business support. Sonia shares how she built her design business while learning the business side the hard way, from Googling invoices to figuring out pricing, systems, bookkeeping, and hiring. After years of trial and error, she realized creative business owners do not need more random advice. They need the right support, the right fit, and the clarity to know what kind of help comes next. This conversation is a real reminder that delegation is not always about handing off tasks. Sometimes, it is about finding smarter people, asking better questions, and getting out of the trenches before the business takes over your life.

    101 Bruno Gavino: The Founder Shouldn’t Be the Whole Visibility Department

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Delegate2Elevate: Get Stuff Done, Bonnie talks with Bruno Gavino, founder of Code Design and creator of LLM Search Console, about the massive shift happening in how businesses get found, trusted, and chosen. For years, visibility was built around Google, websites, SEO, and content. Now, people are asking tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity who to trust, who to hire, and who actually knows what they’re doing. Bonnie and Bruno discuss what founders need to understand about AI search, what they do not need to personally master, and why the future of visibility requires stronger systems, clearer information, and the right mix of human expertise and AI support. They also explore delegation, distributed teams, founder bottlenecks, and why AI should enhance human work rather than replace the value of a strong, cohesive team.

    100th Episode!! Bonnie Schutz: 100 Episodes Later: Stop Doing Sh!t That Doesn’t Need You

    Send us Fan Mail 🎉 100 EPISODES of Delegate2Elevate: Get Sh!t Done. When Bonnie Schutz started a podcast about delegation, she expected to talk about handing off work, getting support, building teams and helping entrepreneurs get more off their plates. She did not expect the podcast itself to become one of the best relationship-building tools of her entrepreneurial career. In this solo 100th episode, Bonnie looks back at what these conversations have taught her about delegation, perfectionism, leadership, trust, asking for help — and letting other people do things differently than she would. She also shares how relationships built through D2E helped inspire Preferred Service Pros, why founders shouldn't wait until they're desperate to get support, and the one giant Golden Nugget she'd pull from the first 100 episodes: You were never supposed to build all of this alone. And perhaps most importantly... Stop doing sh!t that does not need you. 😉 🎧 Listen, subscribe, and join Bonnie for the next 100 conversations.

    98 Jasmine Rice: Delegation Does Not Always Mean Hiring a Team

    Send us Fan Mail Your network can be part of your delegation strategy. That idea came up in my conversation with Jasmine Rice, and it landed hard. We tend to think delegation means: Hire someone. Assign the task. Move on. But Jasmine and I talked about a more creative version of delegation. Bartering services. Using interns. Leaning into networking groups. Asking someone with expertise to help you think differently. Finding the speaker, coach, consultant, or strategic brain you do not personally have to become. That is still delegation. It may not show up as a neat little line item on your org chart, but it absolutely creates capacity. And for founders, solopreneurs, and service providers, capacity is often the thing we are starving for while pretending we are “fine.” Jasmine said something I loved: Stop micromanaging the outcome. Because even when we do everything ourselves, we still cannot control everything. Annoying? Yes. True? Also yes. This episode is a great reminder to start small, get creative, and stop making yourself the whole entire department.

    Send us Fan Mail What can seasoned business owners learn from a Gen Z founder who is already building, experimenting, and leading before graduation?

Bonnie and Sam talk about: Why “What does done look like?” is one of the most powerful delegation questionsHow student builders approach messy workflows and problem-solvingWhat business owners should understand before delegating to internsWhy mentorship is one of the most meaningful gifts a leader can offerHow AI can help, and where it can quietly damage trustWhy scaling too quickly can create lessons you never forgetThis episode is a thoughtful, funny, and eye-opening conversation about building before you feel fully ready, learning by doing, and the value of multi-generational collaboration.
