Managing a team as an entrepreneur is HARD.

That's at least what I've experienced in 6+ years. Those of you who follow me know I've been talking about my struggles with delegation and building a team for a while.

In this episode, I talk about:

- My decision to let go of the idea that I need to be a better manager

- Being frustrated about stuff I want done NOW and the difficulty of it

- The current state of my team

- Hiring for a multinational vs hiring for my company
