How do you juggle so many projects? What's your advice for new founders?

I feel like I don't, actually! Quite a long time ago I scoped what I work on to just the three projects I mentioned at the top of the article. It was for the exact reason of NOT juggling too much. I still work hard, but I don't work crazy hours. I track my time with RescueTime and it's ~40hrs a week.

I'm not sure I have great startup advice. Build something people want, listen to your customers, all that. I wish I was better at it. My favorite advice is to be persistent. Any success I've had is because I kept doing the thing for years upon years upon years.
