Listen "STEEL KINGS: Getting Past Burnout Finding Your Why"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textFeeling stretched thin as the season slows and the pressure rises? We sit down with business coach and human behavior specialist Carly Pepin to unpack why burnout isn’t about working too hard, but about working on the wrong things. Carly shows how a simple task audit reveals what fuels you, what drains you, and what only you should keep. From there, it’s all about smart delegation, hiring people who love the work you avoid, and building systems that make the work easier instead of heavier.We get practical about the realities of sheds, steel buildings, and pole barns: long peak cycles, slower winter months, and the leadership grind that follows. Carly explains how to protect culture with rigorous interviews, how to reconnect teams to mission so they care about the outcome, and how to fix process gaps without turning leaders into heroes who do everyone’s job. We dig into the cash flow lens too—why designing for slow seasons, liquidity, and cleaner handoffs creates calm when demand dips and confidence when it returns.The conversation turns to legacy: building a company that runs in your absence, documents what works, and grows leaders who can lead. Whether you plan to sell, pass the torch, or keep compounding, operating without owner dependency raises valuation and lowers stress. You move from doer to builder: coaching managers, forecasting capacity, and opening new verticals when the foundation is strong. If you want lower burnout, better hires, and a business that keeps its promises with or without you, this one’s for you.For more information or to know more about the Shed Geek Podcast visit us at our website.Would you like to receive our weekly newsletter?
