Working On It

Brad Staines

What if growing your business didn’t mean sacrificing your time, your health, or your freedom?

Working On It is the podcast for service-based founders who want to scale without burning out. Each episode brings you honest conversations with experts, operators, and mentors - the same kind of people who’ve helped shape successful businesses from the inside out. We dive into the systems, strategies, and habits that drive performance - and show you how to build a company that works without you always having to be there. It’s about clarity, leadership, and reclaiming control - of your time, your team, and your next chapter.

If you're focused on building a business that runs without you - and a life that works because of you - then you're in the right place
