In this episode of The Solo Sauce Podcast, Joeri is joined by Thom Gibson, founder of Work From Home Dads and a social media content specialist.

They get into productivity, working from home, and building a sustainable life as a working parent.

From leaving teaching to building a creator business, and from niching down to serve work-from-home dads to balancing career, family, and personal projects, this is a conversation about making intentional trade-offs.

In this conversation, they talk about:

• Why niching down helped him build Work From Home Dads
• Setting boundaries when work and family happen in the same house
• The trade-offs required to balance career, side projects, fitness, and family
• Why YouTube and evergreen content still matter in a short-form world

Working from home gives you flexibility, but only if you design the boundaries.
