Vibe Coding: Delivering Client Projects Without Scope Creep or Burnout
Manage episode 491663047 series 2815091
This episode is part 2 of a 2-part conversation with Joe Casabona, a systems architect for solopreneurs and a self-described automation geek. You can catch part 1 over on the Streamlined Solopreneur feed here
What if the difference between a chaotic, scope-creeping project and one delivered calmly, on time, and on budget wasn’t just better estimating - but a totally different approach?
Joe shares how he used "vibe coding" - collaborating with AI as a coding partner - to rescue a complex nonprofit website project from spiraling out of control. You’ll hear how he navigated unexpected technical requirements, avoided burning weekends, and delivered a solution that protected both his business and his mental health.
This isn’t about working faster. It’s about designing a system that supports calm, margin, and intentional business choices.
What You’ll Learn
- How "vibe coding" can help consultants keep projects on track without endless late nights
- The importance of deeply understanding client needs (and what happens when you don’t)
- Why AI is a better "rubber duck" than a magic wand
- How to approach AI as a partner rather than a replacement
- Practical ways to use AI to reinforce your business values and protect your time
