Join us as we sit down with successful people who have been exactly where you are. They’ll share not just their victories but the obstacles they’ve overcome on their paths to success. It all starts with the question, “How’d they do that?”
In this episode, Skot Waldron sits down with Andrea Ediger, founder of Seventy, a full-service administrative solution built for coaches, consultants, and leaders. Andrea has spent years helping high performers hand off the work that drains them so they can stay in their strengths. She breaks down the surprisingly low bar for knowing you’re ready for help, if you’re losing an hour a day or half a day a week to work that isn’t your strength, that’s the signal.
You’ll hear what to delegate first, why “where do you want to be in 90 days?” is the better starting question, how to run weekly check-ins that actually move things forward, and what separates assistant relationships that thrive from the ones that quietly fall apart. Skot also shares the very real moment his assistant caught two events booked on the same day in two different states, and saved his reputation.
If you’ve been telling yourself it’s cheaper and faster to just do it yourself, this one’s worth your time. You don’t have to build your business alone.
