Episode Summary by AI

I reflect on approaching two years of this show, marking 730 episodes as 10% of my 20-year goal. I talk about building financial projection charts in Notion, experimenting with AI automation, and frustrations with limitations in logic, filters, and responsiveness. I also mention working on a button for Trey’s system, planning future contingencies if work hours change, and balancing tasks with Karin. I close out recognizing progress despite ongoing technical setbacks.

My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI

I feel proud that this show is nearing its two-year mark and that I’ve stayed consistent for so long. At the same time, I’m frustrated by how slow and unreliable some of these tools are, especially when I know exactly what I want to build. I’m confident in the direction but impatient with delays. There’s pride in progress, stress from setbacks, and a quiet belief that I’m inching closer to full independence.

What I Did Today - Summarized by AI

Worked on financial projection charts in Notion, tested AI chart filters, troubleshooted database issues, brainstormed system logic for Trey’s button feature, texted Trey updates, reflected on two years of the show, talked about backup work plans, and spent time with Lexi’s mom before she left.
