You've followed the gurus. And on some level you know that none of it is going to give you what you're actually looking for, because what you're actually looking for is yourself. This is The CEO Sage—a podcast for the woman who is ready to stop looking outside herself for the answer. Kris Plachy doesn't offer you recipes or tactics or the \"real way\" to scale your business. She offers you something more rare: permission to listen to what you already know. In intimate, unflinching conversations, she names the truths you've been waiting to hear aloud.

But are you really ready for it? This week, Kris kicks off the first of seven essential transitions every successful woman must navigate when she knows it's time for something new. It starts with a brutally honest question: Is your business ready to run without you? And are you ready to let it? In this episode, Kris unpacks what readiness really means—not just logistically, but emotionally. Because saying you're done and being done are two very different things. Here's what we explore: The trap of being needed—and why it's so hard to let go How your team might be holding you back (even if they mean well) Why control feels safer than it really is And how to know if you're truly ready for what's next This isn't about stepping down. It's about stepping into a new version of you. And readiness is just the beginning. Contact Information and Recommended Resources Wanna know if your business is ready to run without you?
