What if scaling your business didn’t mean sacrificing your peace?
That’s exactly what Marissa Liesenfelt, COO of Brand Builders Group, has managed to do and has shared with our founder Anne Rajoo on The Productivity Sweet Spot podcast in a deeply honest conversation.
Building a business comes with an often invisible load that accompanies growing a team, managing a thriving business, and staying connected to what truly matters — your values, your well-being, and your people.
Because here’s the truth most productivity advice ignores: just because you can do it all, doesn’t mean you should.
Time Management and Leadership Tips for Women in Business
Too many high-achieving women build businesses that look successful on the outside, but secretly run on overwork, pressure, and constant “catch up” mode. Marissa gets real about what it took to shift out of that energy and into sustainable leadership.
She shares:
The mindset shift that helped her lead with clarity (instead of control)
Why you don’t need to prove your worth through productivity
How to trust your team and yourself even when things feel messy
The systems she uses to stay organized and present
If you're growing a business that’s built on purpose, but you're secretly running on fumes, this episode is your gentle reminder: there’s a better way.
“I had to learn to let go of the belief that everything depends on me. The business doesn’t thrive because I do it all it thrives when I lead well.” — Marissa Liesenfelt
Oof. Let that land.
This shift from “doing it all” to building capacity in yourself and your team is what unlocks growth without burnout.
