If you keep doing everything yourself because it’s “faster”, this episode will feel very familiar. Control can look like competence — but it quietly becomes a ceiling on your time, capacity, and profit.

In this instalment of The Hundred Acre Wood Boardroom series, we use Rabbit as a mirror for a pattern many high-performing women in business slip into under pressure: over-functioning, perfectionism, and becoming the bottleneck in your own business. Rabbit energy brings high standards and strong execution — but without systems and delegation, it can turn into long hours, constant mental load, and a business that relies on you for everything.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why control feels safe, but costs you time, energy, and growth
• The difference between perfection and a minimum viable standard (and why defining “done” is leadership)
• How to make your standards teachable, so delegation doesn’t feel like a risk
• “Document once, delegate forever”: using checklists and simple processes to buy back time
• The Rabbit Bottleneck Audit: Only I Can Do / Someone Else Could Do / I Should Stop Doing
• One practical release you can implement this week to reduce overwhelm and increase capacity

This episode is about keeping the standards — and losing the self-sacrifice — so your business can grow without consuming you.
