Building Invoicing Software for Freelancers with Mike McDerment and FreshBooks

You didn’t start your business just to work through bedtime and answer emails at the playground. But if you're a solopreneur parent, that’s probably what it feels like.

Imagine actually being present during family time. Picture taking real vacations without your laptop, making it to every school pickup, and having your business run smoothly while you focus on what matters most.

I’m Joe Casabona, and I help solopreneur parents run their business in less time—without sacrificing quality or burning out. After hitting my own breaking point, I rebuilt everything around simple systems and automations that now save me 12+ hours a week.

Each episode brings you real-world strategies, smarter workflows, and practical tools to help you reclaim your time and actually enjoy the freedom you set out to create.

Because your business should support your life—not take it over.
