What does a CEO actually do all day?
What’s the hardest part no one talks about?
And how do you lead people who are smarter than you… without faking it?

In this solo episode of Just Some BS, Brandon Stanchock answers the top 10 questions people have about being a CEO—based on what Google SEO says people are actually searching for (but rarely ask directly).

From imposter syndrome and decision fatigue, to screwing up with people and setting a vision that actually sticks, this episode is honest, unfiltered, and full of both strategic and emotional insight.

🎯 What we cover:

  • What a CEO really does (when you don’t build the product yourself)
  • The lonely, unglamorous side of leadership
  • How to manage decision fatigue and still move fast
  • The mistake that still haunts Brandon the most
