2026/04/11

In this episode, I spend the day baking for the doormen and staff, making gooey butter bars in a Dutch oven, and getting a sweet surprise when one of them says the bars remind him of a childhood memory.

In this episode, I’m moving pieces around, literally and mentally, as I spend the day walking the beach, taking a train to see my friend, and floating a new idea that suddenly feels much bigger than I expected.

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

2026/04/07

In this episode, I’m mostly playing it by ear: recovering from travel, sleeping in when I can, and giving myself a softer first day in New York instead of forcing a plan. I walk the dog, make simple food, wash and blow-dry the pup, and let the day stay loose while I figure out what I need next.

2026/04/04

In this episode, I talk about what “not so traditional” looks like for me—spending Good Friday in my own rhythm, booking a spontaneous trip to West Palm Beach, and rethinking how I define success.

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

2026/03/31

In this episode, I lean into my “golden era” and say yes to a pair of sparkly gold shoes I’d been wanting for years.

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

2026/03/28

In this episode, I slow down and let myself take a real day off, skipping the gym, and realizing my body needed a bandaid more than a push. I talk about a mostly good day that still held tears, a surprising letter, a disappointing Chinese restaurant, and why I’m choosing to pause therapy for now because I need more protection than exposure

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

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

2026/03/25

In this episode, I share a soft, snack-filled kind of day: swimming laps until my arms ached, going to therapy, and then honoring my therapist’s advice to “take it easy” with a box of Triscuits and some supreme-pizza chips. I talk about my favorite comfort meal, tweaking my journals and book listings, and why the most freeing part of my retreat might have been not having to say “hi” to anyone unless I actually wanted to.
