In this episode of Time To Press Pause, Brynn Gibbs shares her experiences as a CEO and the pivotal moments when she realized she needed to "press pause" to improve her leadership and company culture. About three years ago, she recognized that her controlling nature was hindering the growth of her company, Consumer Fusion. To address this, she implemented the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS), which helped her delegate responsibilities, empower her team, and foster a healthier work-life balance. The EOS tools, particularly the People Analyzer, allowed her to align her team with the company's core values and restructure roles for better efficiency and satisfaction.

Brynn also discussed the importance of understanding and maintaining the "why" behind her business, which stems from her personal experience with cyberbullying in high school. This passion for reputation management continues to drive her work today.

Brynn shared a second "press pause" moment related to her tendency to compare herself to other successful companies, which caused her stress and detracted from her enjoyment of work. Her business coach introduced her to the book *The Gap and The Gain* by Dan Sullivan, which helped her shift her mindset to focus on celebrating her own progress rather than comparing herself to others. This change in perspective allowed her to better appreciate her achievements and set a healthier long-term vision for her life and business.

Overall, Brynn’s advice to CEOs is to recognize when it's time to pause and reassess, avoid unhealthy comparisons, and focus on empowering their teams for sustainable growth.
