From Burnout to Breakthrough: Leadership Shifts Every Agency Owner Needs to Scale With Emily Sander

In this episode of the Catalytic Leadership Podcast, I sit down with Emily Sander, executive coach and author of Hacking Executive Leadership, to explore the critical leadership shifts agency owners must make to escape burnout and unlock sustainable growth.

Emily draws from her experience in high-pressure startup and corporate environments to reveal what separates stuck operators from visionary CEOs. We unpack time mastery strategies for agency owners, the real impact of imposter syndrome on business growth, and why adapting your communication style is a game-changer when leading a small team.

If you’re a digital agency owner running on GoHighLevel, managing client expectations, and feeling stretched by team challenges and daily operations—this conversation will help you lead with greater clarity, focus, and resilience. These leadership frameworks aren’t just theory—they’re a roadmap to scale your agency without sacrificing your sanity.
