If you've ever worked for a bigger company, you know that it's easy to get bogged down by software and other restrictions in the name of security. Heck, I was once told I couldn't work off-site because of it, and we had a VPN! Well, Jason Meller was sick of that and he suspected others were too, so he started Kolide. We talk all about what inspired him to take the leap and start a company, how he and his team built the software and the honest security manifesto! In Build Something More, we talk about cybersecurity and fear-mongering.Show Notes:<ul><li><a href="http://kolide.com">Jason Meller</a></li><li><a href="https://twitter.com/jmeller">Jason Meller on Twitter</a></li><li><a href="https://twitter.com/kolide">Kolide on Twitter</a></li><li><a href="https://honest.security/">Honest Security</a></li><li><a href="https://books.google.com.ph/books/about/Company_of_One.html?id=-9dGDwAAQBAJ&amp;printsec=frontcover&amp;source=kp_read_button&amp;redir_esc=y#v=onepage&amp;q&amp;f=false">Company of One</a></li><li><a href="https://www.heroku.com/">Heroku</a></li><li><a href="https://casabona.org/2021/02/baby-clothes-help-customers/">Baby Clothes Blog</a></li><li><a href="https://buildsomething.club">Creator Crew</a></li></ul>Sponsored by: <a href="https://howibuilt.it/rcp">Restrict Content Pro</a> | <a href="https://textexpander.com/how-i-built-it?utm_source=howibuiltit&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=textexpander-May-2021">TextExpander</a> | <a href="https://howibuilt.it/events/">The Events Calendar</a>

Overwhelmed? Feel like your business can't run for a day without you? You're not alone.

When you're a solo business owner, everything ends up depending on you. You're the only one who can do the work, answer the email, keep the plates spinning. So you're on the hook every day: nights, weekends, even the vacations you do manage to take. The overwhelm never really lifts.

But being a solopreneur doesn't have to mean doing it all yourself. With the right systems, parts of your business can run without you. That's what gets you your time back, and gives you the freedom to take a real break. And the freedom to do the work you actually want instead of the work you feel stuck doing.

Joe Casabona learned this the hard way. He went from so overwhelmed he had a panic attack to taking 4–6 weeks off a year, worry-free, and he's helped hundreds of solopreneurs build systems that give them their time back.

Every week, one clear idea to help you get your time back without hiring a team...or selling your soul to AI. Start listening, then grab the free newsletter at https://streamlinedsolopreneur.com.
