Shame might be the most silent killer of entrepreneurial confidence, especially when it comes to hiring mistakes. As a hiring consultant who has guided countless business owners through team building, I've witnessed the crushing weight that bad hires place on otherwise capable leaders. The truth? Every single entrepreneur has made hiring mistakes—yes, even me.Hiring parallels dating in uncanny ways. We ignore red flags, convince ourselves things will improve, and sometimes hold onto people far longer than we should. The mistake isn't making a bad hire; it's carrying that experience as proof of your inadequacy as a leader. This episode unpacks why clarity stands as the foundation of successful hiring, and how every misstep actually sharpens your intuition for future decisions.What transforms average business owners into exceptional leaders isn't a perfect hiring record—it's their ability to learn, adapt, and refuse to carry shame for past decisions.

Your business and your peace are worthy of protection, which sometimes means making difficult decisions about who belongs on your team.
