Maryann, a coach and shop owner, emphasizes the need to recognize and embrace different roles in life, such as being a leader, family member, or partner. She suggests that separating these identities can lead to growth, team collaboration, and the ability to assess the business objectively. Viewing the business as a separate entity can lead to better delegation, clearer focus, and improved work-life balance.\\n\\nMaryann,\\xa0Small Biz Vantage.
