In this episode, Kory and LeRoy welcome Kirstin Mains back to The Green Grind to dive deep into one of the most important topics for any business owner: getting out of your own way. Fresh off their trip to the Landscaper event in Charlotte, the crew unpacks why so many owners become the bottleneck in their business and how to fix it.

They discuss building systems that scale, empowering team members to take ownership, and focusing on vision over chaos. You’ll also hear about the new AI tools being developed for the green industry, the importance of setting short- and long-term goals, and how sharing your vision with your team can transform company culture.

Whether you’re running a $250k business or a $5M one, this episode is packed with practical advice on breaking free from control-freak tendencies, reducing burnout, and leading your team toward growth.
