In this special solo episode of The Renaissance Podcast, Sydney opens the floor to the community and answers your real, unfiltered questions about business building, entrepreneurship, and what it’s actually been like growing Renaissance Marketing Group over the last decade.

From finding the right communities to grow in, to trusting your intuition as a founder, to learning when and how to delegate, Sydney reflects on the lessons, mindset shifts, and decisions that have shaped both her agency and her personal evolution as a CEO.

Some of the questions we dive into include:

• What advice Sydney would give herself if she were her own business coach
• What has never changed since starting Renaissance Marketing Group
• The role of tenacity and intuition in long-term success

In this solo episode of The Renaissance Podcast, I’m sharing 5 powerful (and very real) ways to stop being your own biggest obstacle in 2026—in your business, visibility, and leadership.

If you’re done waiting, overthinking, people-pleasing, or carrying everything alone, this episode is your permission slip to move differently this year.

Here’s what we cover:

1. Stop Waiting for Perfect
Progress beats perfection. Done and posted beats ideas stuck in drafts. 2026 is about momentum.

2. Delegate & Trust
Growth happens when you stop being the bottleneck. I share exactly what I outsource to my assistant—from meeting scheduling and sales tracking to calendar protection, appointments, and light Canva support. You don’t need a full-time hire to get support, but you do get out of it what you put into it.

3. Detach from Comparison
If content consumption is making you feel behind, it’s time to pause. Your lane. Your timing. Your story. Less scrolling, more creating.

4. Embrace Failure as Data
Every failure is feedback. I talk about auditing what didn’t work in 2025, doing postmortems, and using slow seasons to be proactive instead of reactive. Failure isn’t a stop sign—it’s a compass.

5. Prioritize CEO Energy
Protect your time and energy. Say no more often. Be less available. Clarity fuels growth more than busyness ever will.

If 2026 is your year to own your role, your time, and your vision, this episode is for you.

Episode Partner: NexusPoint
NexusPoint helps founders step out of operator mode through smarter systems and trusted global support—so you can delegate with confidence and protect your CEO energy. I personally work with NexusPoint and it’s been key in reclaiming my time.
