    How to Stop Being the Bottleneck in Your Business with Cory Blumenfeld (BlueMoso)
    Oct 19 2026
    Starting a company is only half the challenge. The real test begins when things start working & founders realise they are becoming the biggest bottleneck to their own growth..!

    In this episode of the SuperConnector Show podcast, Cory Blumenfeld (Founder & CEO, BlueMoso) & host Paul Lancaster discuss:
    • The Delegation Trap: Why delegation is the ultimate growth lever & how founders accidentally stand in the way of their own business.
    • Remote Team Building: How to scale remote teams (like scaling BlueMoso to 60+ team members in under two years) that operate without you needing to be in every room.
    • Starting Before You're Ready: Lessons from diving into new industries, raising over $3M, securing two exits & figuring it out along the way.

    No theory - just honest conversations about Cory's experience of building, breaking things & learning how to step back so his business can scale.

    Do your emotions dictate how you react to life's challenges? In this deep-dive conversation, Richard explains what it truly means to achieve Emotional Agency - the ability to maintain guardianship over your feelings, choose conscious responses over knee-jerk reactions and transform unwanted emotions from enemies into valuable feedback signals.

    Together, Paul and Richard explore:
    • The Definition of Emotional Agency: What it is and why it's the foundation of mental well-being and peak performance.
    • Emotions as Energy in Motion: Why resisting or suppressing feelings creates internal friction and how allowing energy to pass brings peace.
    • The Emotional Back Catalog: How unresolved baggage from past experiences or inherited generational trauma impacts our everyday choices.
    • Parenting and Role Models: How working through your own emotional wounds prevents passing trauma on to future generations.
    • Breaking the Reactivity Pattern: Practical strategies to navigate triggers, cultivate non-attachment and practice self-compassion.
    Whether you're looking to improve your mental health, strengthen your relationships, or grow as a leader, this episode offers actionable insights into mastering your internal ecosystem.
