    2026/08/04

    In this episode you will learn:

    • What the hiring hangover is and why it shows up at the 90-day mark
    • The difference between hiring an extra pair of hands and hiring an owner
    • Why being in the same meetings as your team member is costing you more than you think

  • Why your team can't be your friends (and where the line actually is)
    2026/07/28

    You thought she was a friend. Then the reorg came out and she found out with everyone else. What felt like a betrayal was a clarity problem. In this episode, Lia Garvin breaks down the difference between being friendly with your team and being their friend, what self-management really means before any other management tool can work, and the one thing to say upfront that changes the entire dynamic.

    In this episode you will learn:

    • Why the betrayal your team feels when hard news hits is almost never about what you did, and what it actually is
    • The kinds of things you will always know as a leader that your team cannot know yet, and why that is the job
    • Where the friendship line quietly blurs: lending money, bending policies, venting, inviting one person and not all
    • What equitable management looks like and why it protects everyone, including you
    • The one sentence to say when you hire someone that sets the dynamic from day one

  • Where AI fits on your team today
    2026/07/21

    The headlines said AI would be cheaper than your team. The receipts say otherwise. If you jumped in fast and are feeling the cost, or you've been holding back wondering if you're already behind, this one is your reset. Lia breaks down how to figure out where AI actually fits on your team — without an arms race, a Chief AI Officer, or a plan to replace the people who make your business run.

    In this episode you'll learn:

    - Why AI isn't the wholesale cost savings you were promised — and why that's actually good news
    - How to tell whether your business really needs a "Chief AI Officer" (most don't)
    - The tool mindset that separates teams who benefit from AI from teams who just spin their wheels
    - Where AI genuinely claws back hours — and where a team conversation solves it faster
    - Why the hard part was never the tech, and the people conversations to have first
    - How to start with foundations so AI augments your team instead of replacing it
