Jerome Knyszewski: What do you think makes your company stand out? Can you share a story?
Katie Grimes: My company stands out because there is no one doing sober dating coaching. I am helping people prepare for letting healthy and confident relationships come back into their lives. I also work with love addiction, which again is a space where there is not enough support. And as a brand, I am vulnerable with my community and share my ups and downs. This helps people feel connected to me and makes them want to work with me.
Jerome Knyszewski: Which tips would you recommend to your colleagues in your industry to help them to thrive and not “burn out”?
Katie Grimes: Stop working so much! Burn out is a direct correlation to overwhelm. When we feel overwhelmed, we do not want to deal with all the things we are thinking about and the negative talk. Instead, we need to realize that these thoughts are not reality. What I find is that when I have fun and I am managing my self-care, business and opportunities come to me easily.
Jerome Knyszewski: None of us are able to achieve success without some help along the way. Is there a particular person who you are grateful towards who helped get you to where you are? Can you share a story?
Katie Grimes: My 12-step sponsor has been in my life for the last ten years, helping me, coaching me, mentoring me, pushing me to be my best. She is an entrepreneur and has lived the life of recovery. She has helped me to see that I could do this business too. She helps me redirect my emotions, and challenges me to find a spiritual solution when I am lost.
Jerome Knyszewski: Ok thank you for all that. Now let’s shift to the main focus of this interview. Delegating effectively is a challenge for many leaders. Let’s put first things first. Can you help articulate to our readers a few reasons why delegating is such an important skill for a leader or a business owner to develop?
Katie Grimes: We can not do it all! We will not succeed. When I first launched my business, I was sure to carve out money in the budget to have someone help me. I knew if I was to succeed, I needed help. It is important to share the vision for the work with the team so they can live the vision too. It can be challenging, but once you let go of control, you start to see the benefits.
Jerome Knyszewski: Can you help articulate a few of the reasons why delegating is such a challenge for so many people?
Katie Grimes: Control. Too many people see delegating as a weakness and do not want to let go of the control they think they have to hold hard on to. Once you realize you can be more successful with help, your business will soar!
Jerome Knyszewski: In your opinion, what pivots need to be made, either in perspective or in work habits, to help alleviate some of the challenges you mentioned?
Katie Grimes: Identify what your fears are about letting go of control in your business. Ask things like what would happen if I slept in another hour or delegated a task to someone else. Once you identify the negative or fearful talk, then you can tell yourself a different story that makes you feel confident and more trusting about running your business.
Jerome Knyszewski: Thank you for all of that. We are nearly done. You are a person of great influence. If you could start a movement that would bring the most amount of good to the most amount of people, what would that be? You never know what your idea can trigger. 🙂
Katie Grimes: My movement would be Anything for Love, a movement where we bring people together from all backgrounds, all races, religions and we share what we love must about one another. We will start to see we have common threads that tie us all together through love.
