Description

In this episode of The EA Campus Podcast, Nicky sits down with Kimberly Spencer, founder of Crown Yourself and CEO of Communication Queens, for an honest conversation about what founders really need from their Executive Assistants. Kimberly shares her journey from Pilates instructor to screenwriter to entrepreneur, and how hiring her first EA completely changed the way she built and led her business.

You’ll hear Kimberly talk about learning to delegate, understanding your zone of genius, hiring for values rather than skills, and why radical ownership matters on both sides of the EA.founder partnership. She also shares how podcast guesting became a major part of her business strategy and references her book Make Every Podcast Want You.

If you work with a visionary executive or support a founder who moves quickly, this conversation will give you practical insight into their mindset and how you can support them more effectively.
