The secret to stress-free delegation? Crystal clear expectations.

Have you ever delegated a task only to get back something entirely unexpected? Or, like our host, Raven O’Neal, do you fear delegating so much that it fuels control issues?

The problem isn’t your team, it’s the handoff.

Here’s why precision in delegation is a game-changer for everyone:

For Leaders:
 → Saves time (no more rework or “I thought you meant…”)
 → Reduces anxiety (trust grows when expectations are explicit)
 → Frees mental bandwidth (less babysitting, more strategizing)

For Your Team:
 → Builds confidence (exact benchmarks = clear wins)
 → Encourages ownership (“Here’s the sandbox—play to your strengths!”)
 → Prevents resentment (no mind-reading required)

How to Nail It:
 → Define the “What”
 → Clarify the “Why”
 → Set guardrails
 → Specify success
 → Invite questions

Want to lead better in today’s post-pandemic world?
Discover why women are uniquely primed for this skill.

We can’t keep expecting those without power to change the system alone. 

Just one of incredible views Aubria Ralph, founder of @scrappygirlquotes shared in episode 44.

For decades, women have been told to “lean in” and work harder to create their own opportunities. But here’s the hard truth:
 → Leadership buy-in is irreplaceable
 → Real change requires those in power to actively create space
 → Emotional intelligence alone won’t fix systemic barriers

The question isn’t can women succeed, we know they can. 

The question is: Are leaders willing to actually open doors?

What’s one way your leadership can create more space for women?

The pandemic made remote work flexible, but also erased boundaries. 

Now, we’re stuck in “always on” mode.”

Last week, we sat down with @emilybronaugh to dig into it:
 → The double-edged sword of remote work tech (looking at you, Slack 👀)
 → Why women feel work anxiety more intensely
 → The invisible emotional labor + household duties that amplify stress

The fix? Lead by example:
 →  Delete work apps after hours
 →  Set and model email boundaries (no midnight replies!)
 →  Normalize “off” time—guilt-free
