Delegation is more than just giving jobs away - it’s a leadership skill. Many VA leaders want to develop this skill, but where do you actually start?"You’re not giving things away - you’re creating space. Space to grow, space to breathe, space to do the work you’re really here to do."In this episode, we’re tackling one of the most common questions asked within VA communities: how do you start delegation, and what should I give away first?If the idea of letting go makes you feel uneasy, you’re not alone. We dig into why delegation feels so hard, how to shift your mindset from control to trust, and (most importantly) what to start with when bringing in help, whether you’re hiring an associate or bringing on a VA to support your internal admin.You’ll learn that delegation doesn’t have to be all or nothing. Whether you’re handing over client tasks or starting with admin jobs that are low risk, this episode walks you through how to begin with clarity and confidence.Key Takeaways:If delegation feels scary, begin with repeatable, low-impact admin tasks that don’t need deep client knowledge - think research, metrics, or content scheduling.Whether you're easing in with behind-the-scenes support or diving in by assigning a client, it’s all about your comfort level and readiness to train and trust.Don’t delegate chaos. Tasks still stuck in your head or lacking clear processes should stay with you, for now. Get them solid first, then hand them off.Look at your to-do list and pick one task that doesn’t need your brain, just someone’s time. Outline what it would take to hand it over or even better, build a process.Remember: scaling starts with one brave step. Delegation is a muscle. Use it, and it gets stronger.Resources:Check out 'From Solo to CEO' podcast episode⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get our free mini course on Creating Solid Business Foundations ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hiring Associates free guide⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Free monthly metrics tracker download⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit the website
