2026/10/11

I’m figuring out how to build better boundaries with my time, especially when part of me wants a weekend break and another part says I haven’t done enough. Between book-launch prep, unfinished homework, and a Pilates workout that humbled me, I’m working keeping my commitments without making every day all work and no play.

I’m kicking off my 90-day challenge by reaching out to a publishing contact instead of waiting for an introduction that hasn’t happened.

I’m starting a 90-day countdown with one goal: take one inspired action every day that moves my life forward.

I’m taking steps toward sharing The Tales of Keegan and Mabel through hospital, preschool, and homeschool outreach, while figuring out the voices that will bring my characters to life.

Episode 803: Let Me

Ayla and Potato3s: A Nightly Message From Your Best... ·

2026/10/06

As I pack for my flight back to Houston, I reflect on the difference between being capable of doing everything and letting someone say, “Let me.” I talk about feeling worn down by everyday life, the power of someone believing in me, and wanting my content to feel like me versus just another thing I pressure myself to produce.

2026/10/05

I took a real Sunday rest, had Korean-Chinese food, salt bread, and ice cream, and let myself enjoy a day without turning it into a productivity contest.

Episode 800: Overwhelm

Ayla and Potato3s: A Nightly Message From Your Best... ·

2026/10/03

I’m realizing that overwhelm doesn’t always mean I am doing nothing, it can mean I am trying to carry too many unanswered questions at once. In this episode, I celebrate earning a 90 on my assessment, reflect on customer discovery, outreach, collaboration, scripting, content, and my upcoming trip home to Houston, and remind myself that the way out of overwhelm is often just doing one next small thing or allowing myself a real break

Episode 798: Somehow It Just Happened

Ayla and Potato3s: A Nightly Message From Your Best... ·

2026/10/01

Somehow, it just happened: I realized how much I need in-person connection, said yes to a possible podcast appearance, finished a challenging new strength workout, and kept creating even when I am still finding my voice online. In this episode, I reflect on going home to Houston, the comfort of being needed by family, my dream of becoming a triple-digit millionaire, paid speaker, and talk-show host, and why I am choosing to send the agent query instead of only wondering whether I am on the right

2026/09/30

I’m calling this episode “Fun, Fun, Fun” because today held a little bit of everything: finishing my 28-day workout program, filming four TikToks, making progress on my YouTube script, meeting a fluffy Samoyed, finding an unexpectedly good cologne recommendation, and being grateful for a free nickel. I also finally sent a message I had been avoiding and received a quick response about a possible publishing introduction, while learning to let other people do the jobs they are good at, including my

I’m giving myself permission to slow down, relax, and still dream big.

In this episode, I share a customer-discovery conversation that helped me simplify my book formats, update my website, plan new content, explore another children’s-book idea, and reflect on becoming a future Simon & Schuster author who can trust a team while focusing on writing and creating.

2026/09/26

I’m reflecting on the three qualities I want to strengthen as I build a more abundant life: resilience, confidence, and joy.

2026/09/25

I’m treating this season like a series of experiments: testing two versions of my YouTube video, trying different captions and thumbnails, exploring AI tools for images and captions, and staying open to unexpected income opportunities. I also share a possible new opportunity, planning my return to New York, working with my illustrator, caring for Mabel, and reminding myself that every experiment teaches me something, even before it brings the result I want.

Ayla and Potato3s: A Nightly Message From Your Best... ·
