When was the last time you took a real vacation...not one where you're still answering emails? If that question bums you out, you're in the right place.
Streamlined Solopreneur is the podcast where solopreneurs learn to build simple business systems and automations that keep your business running — even when you're not at your desk.
I'm Joe Casabona. A few years ago, I was so overwhelmed by my solopreneur business that I had a panic attack. Today, I take 4–6 weeks off every year, worry-free. No team, no 60-hour weeks. Just systems and processes that do the heavy lifting.
On this podcast, you'll learn how to:
- Create playbooks and SOPs to make building systems easy
- Automate repetitive tasks with systems that don't break
- Use AI for grunt work (not creative work) to reclaim hours every week
- Capture every task and idea without relying on your memory
- Take real time off without your business falling apart
New episodes twice a week on solopreneur systems, business automation, and AI-powered productivity.

I had a panic attack in November 2020. It was the middle of the pandemic. I was at home with two small kids while my wife, a nurse, was working a ton. I didn't have any time to run my business, let alone create a good podcast. One day, was so overwhelmed by everything that I had a panic attack.
Joe:And as I'm sitting in the kitchen leaning up against my fridge, my three year old daughter comes up to me, hands me a bottle of water, and says, it's okay, daddy. It's going to be okay. I made a promise to myself that day that I wouldn't let this happen again, so I decided to take everything I didn't need to do off my plate. Fast forward thirteen months, we welcomed our third child into the world, and I wasn't stressed. My business had every system in place it needed to have for me to take a full month off and spend time with my family.
Joe:That pivotal moment is when the mission of this podcast changed. It went from focusing on building to focusing on helping busy solopreneurs, especially parents, streamline their business so they can run it while also spending time the way they want. See, I've never felt the business advice online was for parents or for anyone who wanted to run a business while being there for their family and friends, and I wanted to change that. So I've decided to turn how I built it into the streamlined solopreneur, a name and mission that better reflects how the show helps people today. I'll still talk to experts and share my own experience and hopefully make being a solopreneur feel less solo.
Joe:With every episode, you'll get insights, great stories, and one to three actions you can take to improve your business processes and spend your time the way that you want. You can learn more at streamlined.fm and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
