If you've been following me for any amount of time, you will know that I take my note taking and idea capture very seriously. And last year, I made a decision that <a href="https://craft.do/">Craft</a> would be my one and only notes app.I don’t think that’s working out for me. Mostly because I have 3 kinds of notes:<ol><li>Big planning notes</li><li>Random thoughts</li><li>Research notes</li></ol>Craft has been great for the random thoughts and research but I think is best suited for Big Planning.So I’m going to switch back to <a href="https://bear.app/">Bear Notes</a> for random thoughts to see how that works out.

Going Back to Bear Notes

You started your business for family time and flexibility, but now you're checking emails at the playground and working after bedtime. Your business runs you instead of you running it—and your kids are competing with your phone for attention.

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 busy solopreneur parents build streamlined business systems that create real work-life balance. After my own overwhelm led to a breakdown, I rebuilt my business around automated processes that save me 12+ hours weekly.

Each week, I share proven systems, time-saving strategies, and practical automation that let you step away from your business without everything falling apart. Because your family time should be sacred—not interrupted by client emergencies.

Stop working nights and weekends. Start building systems that run your business while you're at the park with your kids.
