The Intentional Owner

A Weekly Time Audit for Small Business Owners - The Intentional Owner #32


Listen Later

Sam Rosati and Kaustubh Deo take a transparent look at how they actually spend their time as entrepreneurs juggling multiple commitments. From running their primary businesses to investing, community building, family life, and personal admin, they break down their weekly hours in real numbers. The conversation evolves into a broader discussion about tradeoffs, intentionality, screen time, and what balance really looks like when you are building businesses and raising families. By the end, they explore what would change if life circumstances shifted and how their “secondary” passions might one day become the main event

They discuss:

  • Breaking down primary and secondary business commitments into real weekly hours
  • The difference between recurring obligations and one off time commitments
  • How live deal cycles can dramatically shift workload and family balance
  • The hidden cost of phone usage and screen time in entrepreneurial life
  • How to think about adding or removing commitments as life stages change
