S5E15: Business Burnout, Delegation & Growth: Should You Hire Before You Snap? | Investor Shed Podcast

In this episode of the Investor Shed Podcast, Nick Beveridge and Jeremy Kitchen dive headfirst into the reality of business burnout — the kind that creeps up when your business is booming but your sanity is slipping.

Jeremy opens up about the intense workload he's been juggling in his real estate media business, from sunrise shoots in Moscow to late-night uploads in Coeur d’Alene. With 3–5 shoots a day and incoming referrals piling up, he’s staring burnout in the face — and asking, Is it time to hire help?

Nick shares his past experiences with burnout, the mistakes he made, and how systems, delegation, and checklists helped him rebuild. They talk about the emotional toll of self-employment, the pressure to perform, and the guilt that comes with setting boundaries.

If you're an entrepreneur, real estate agent, or small business owner struggling with work-life balance, scaling, or just saying no, this episode is a must-listen.
