ep 5: Taking The Leap From Founder-Led To Team Driven
“Go through your day today, write down everything that's taking up time on your calendar and everything that's on your to-do list that you didn't get to.”
That’s the invitation Ashley Chang, Founder of Sundays, leaves with founders in this episode of Breaking the Bottleneck — and it hits especially hard coming from someone who was the bottleneck in her own business while pregnant and running a fast-growing company.
In this conversation, Ashley unpacks what it really took to move from doing everything herself (sales, hiring, marketing, HR) to building a team-driven company that supports working parents at home and at work.
You’ll hear:
How a time and energy audit helped her get out of the weeds and into the C-suite
The moment she realized that delegation isn’t about speed but joy
How quality control and delegation can co-exist, hint, hint it’s all about systems and feedback loops
Why empathy is a nonnegotiable at Sundays
How Sundays protects team members from misaligned, potentially toxic clients
The lie she had to unlearn to really appreciate her successes
Side note: For founders who are raising their brands to grow beyond them, Ashley’s story is a powerful reminder that clarity + systems + trust are as mission-critical as any marketing funnel.
