“It’s not true, I don’t have a second in the day, I don’t take a lunch break. I am back to back with meetings.”
Mum-of-one Louise continued: “I look at people who have grown really successful businesses that aren’t necessarily influencers and they have teams, you have to have a team.
“And they have teams of ten, twenty, fifty, a hundred people… you have to scale up. “‘I’ve basically realised in the last six months that I’m doing at least five people’s jobs.
“I think it’s fine though to also have a bit of a burnt out moment and be like, it’s all part of the journey. I don’t need to be perfect.”
Ryan then said “You shouldn’t be having burnout in the second month of a brand new year, you just shouldn’t.”
To which Louise replied: “But this is why we’re having this conversation.”
