I had two Zoom calls today instead of five and got hired for a two-hour daily role with Dawson, adding to my existing work with Mina. Riley's setup is unconventional and lacks systems, which I noticed during our call. I reflected on needing structured notes, talked through adjusting my daily schedule, considered podcast software upgrades, and questioned stereotypes about tech people. I also ranted about gym crowds, financial recovery, my minimalist lifestyle, and how my values diverge from typical norms.

My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI

Today I felt proud but overwhelmed. I landed another gig which is exciting, but I can tell I need more structure and probably better systems if I’m going to manage all this. I’m grateful for the opportunities Mina opened up for me. I’m also clearly thinking long term—about how I’ll handle growth, money, and staying sane. A little insecure at times, but I’m working through it. I’m not faking anything. Just figuring it out as I go.
