Breaking Busy: The Founder Bottleneck

Most founders don’t (just) have a time problem. They are the bottleneck in a business that was never designed for the life they want
About this Event

This workshop shakes up the idea that more discipline, better tools or one more hire is all it takes to create space.

We live in a world that never stops asking for more. The inbox fills. The calendar spills. The advice keeps coming. Many independents are earning well, yet still working evenings and weekends, telling themselves things will calm down soon. They feel busy but stuck. They say yes to everything because they can’t see what to change without risking what already works.

In this session, Anna brings client stories, a simple four part model and a hands-on capacity audit to help founders spot exactly where their structure is holding them in place. She shows what to adjust first so the business supports their life, not the other way around. After more than a decade working with hundreds of solopreneurs who left corporate for freedom but rebuilt the same patterns, Anna offers a clear and caring path forward.

You will leave with:
• A simple framework to spot where capacity gets blocked
• A mini capacity audit you can return to whenever things start to tighten
• Three practical next steps to reshape how your business runs


Anna Lundberg is a strategist and coach who has spent more than ten years helping founders rethink the way they work. Her early career in a global Fortune 500 company, combined with a decade running her own consultancy, gives her a grounded view of what independence really takes. She is the author of Outside of the 9 to 5 and Leaving the Corporate 9 to 5, and hosts the long running Reimagining Success podcast.

Her work speaks to thoughtful founders who want clarity, calm and healthy margins. Not more noise. Not more grind. She helps independent experts shift from stretched operator to intentional CEO with a business that fits who they are today.
