Episode 775: Decisions and Conversations (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Today I had to make a difficult founder decision: stop fighting with AI illustrations and have an honest conversation with the artist my intuition told me to trust from the beginning. I’m sharing what this taught me about timelines, pricing my color storybook sustainably, hearing “not yet” from a podcast, sending more outreach, and choosing momentum even when the next steps are not fully clear.
Episode 774: Contracts (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m celebrating a quiet but productive Sunday: I finished my school assessment early, completed the layout for my book, followed up on a nonprofit partnership, and received a surprise yellow watermelon after keeping my promise to tackle a task I had been putting off. I’m also sharing the new “contracts” I’m making with the universe, my upcoming New York trip, and why I’m clearing space for a more specific vision of the life I want.
Episode 773: A Break (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I gave myself a real break today and discovered that rest does not mean I stop thinking, creating, or questioning what comes next. I’m sharing an honest update about my mentor challenging my pivot, why I still believe in my children’s storybook, the lessons I learned from coloring-book promotion, sending 34 podcast outreach emails, and choosing small moments of joy while I figure out my next move.
Episode 772: Forward (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m realizing that progress does not always look like a perfectly productive day, it can look like choosing rest, accepting support, and still moving the important things forward. In this episode, I share a late-night life update: choosing Florida, building alongside friends, making my website more accessible, preparing my book, and celebrating the first signs of momentum after a long stretch of sending outreach emails.
Episode 771: How It Ended (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On day three of my Successful Season, my plan changed quickly after my dad’s car accident, but I still ended the day proud of what I accomplished. I share how I completed my barre workout, cleaned my space, drafted my website, contacted seven podcasts, started and finished my third book, and learned that sometimes progress is not about how the day starts, it is about how it ends
