Most business owners tackle time the wrong way. They cram more in with new systems, apps or hires, hoping it will fix the chaos. But when your cup is already overflowing, adding more only makes the mess worse. 

The real fix starts with one question: What should I stop doing immediately? 

When you stop, you create capacity. Then you can start the things that matter and continue what’s already working. The simplest and most effective framework for taking back control of your time and your business is: stop, start, continue. It’s not about doing more. It’s about doing what counts. 

In this episode you’ll learn: 

🔨 When your cup is full, creating capacity starts with stopping first. 
🔨 The first question isn’t what to add, it’s what to stop. 
🔨 Eliminating low-value work unlocks time for higher-impact priorities. 
🔨 Stopping creates space, starting moves you forward, continuing builds momentum. 
🔨 Focus on what delivers value, not on staying endlessly busy. 
🔨 Growth happens when you shed what no longer serves your business.
