Streamlined Solopreneur: Tips to Help Small Business Owners Grow Without Burnout

Full-Time Job, Side Hustles, and Fatherhood: Can You Actually Do It All?


Listen Later

What happens when you’re a dad of 3, working a full-time job, and still running not one but two side hustles? That’s the question I put to my friend Matt Medeiros — fellow podcaster, WordPress veteran, and all-around content machine.

We talk honestly about what it takes to juggle parenting, work, and multiple projects without burning out (or completely losing your mind). From managing sponsorship revenue to choosing the right tools, to figuring out when to reinvest vs. cash out, Matt shares what’s working for him — and where he’s still figuring it out.

If you’ve ever wondered how to balance family life while chasing creative business ideas, you’ll take away some real strategies (and a few good laughs).

Wondering how you can manage your time to find the perfect balance? Take the Business Overwhelm Diagnostic.

Top Takeaways

  • Common threads make side hustles sustainable – keeping your work, projects, and interests connected makes context-switching easier and prevents burnout.
  • Don’t turn every hobby into a business – it’s tempting, but some things are better left as hobbies so you can actually enjoy them.
  • Content creation is career insurance – podcasting, writing, or videos not only generate side income but also build a portfolio that makes you more valuable in the job market.
  • The right tools save hours – Riverside, Descript, and Opus Clips help streamline production, while letting him focus on strategy instead of getting lost in the weeds.
