Join Julie Riga as she sits down with Bobby Lane, business growth strategist and Founder & CEO of Factotum, to explore how stepping into leadership, trusting your vision, and building the right infrastructure can transform not just your business, but your entire approach to purpose-driven growth.

In This Episode:
✨ Why stepping out of the daily work and into leadership is the key to scaling
✨ How belief and authentic passion shape company culture from the inside out
✨ The infrastructure every founder needs before they think they're ready to grow
✨ How to integrate AI without losing the human judgment that drives real results
✨ Why the right strategic partnerships can accelerate growth faster than chasing clients one at a time

Key Takeaways:
📌 Delegation, not doing it all yourself, is what allows a business to triple in size
📌 Leadership is spiritual — a leader's energy moves through the entire organization
📌 Surround yourself with radiators, not drains
📌 Weak back-office infrastructure quietly caps growth before it starts
📌 AI is a tool for creative acceleration, not a replacement for human capital
📌 The right strategic partner can open more doors than a hundred cold outreaches
