33. Why Growing Your Business Is Breaking Your Business (and How to Fix It)
Update: 2025-10-20
Description
If your business is growing but you’re working harder, feeling stretched, and losing control — this episode is for you.
In this Why Your Business Isn’t Growing (and how to fix it!) business growth podcast, Brendan Rogers reveals how growth without balance quietly breaks many small businesses and SMEs — and the simple framework that helps you fix it for good.
The SME Impact Triangle™ shows you how to balance three critical areas of growth:
Leader (You), Team (Them), and Business (It). When these grow together, you achieve long-term impact — sustainable business growth, stronger team performance, and a calmer, more confident leadership rhythm.
In This Episode You’ll Learn
Why unbalanced growth creates burnout, chaos, and “brittle success.”
The 3 sides of the SME Impact Triangle™ and how to identify your weakest side.
The mindset shifts from Reactive → Strategic, Directed → Empowered, and Volatile → Predictable.
How to create balance across Leadership, Team, and Business.
A simple next step: The Balance Audit to find where to focus first.
Who This Episode Is For
SME owners and leaders who feel stuck doing everything themselves.
Business owners ready to grow smarter, not just harder.
Listeners of leadership podcasts and team performance podcasts who want practical systems for sustainable business growth.
