Episode Summary by AI I describe losing track of time while juggling pressure, stress, and the mental load of building a full software product to replace Notion. I cover my fastest and longest consistent run with Lexi, my soreness afterward, and the progress made migrating Mina’s and Trey’s systems. I note frustration with slow loading in Cursor and the overwhelming scope of coding. I explain my desire to ditch Notion entirely, replicate everything in real software, implement Stripe, permissions, and faster logic, and how the Zoom call with Mina validated the direction.

My Thoughts & Feelings for Today – Summarized by AI I feel the weight of everything moving fast. My memory feels foggy because my mind is split across too many problems at once, but I’m not actually concerned. I’m watching myself shift from Notion into real software and I can feel the pull toward something bigger. The scope is overwhelming but the direction is correct. I’m proud of the run with Lexi, proud of the progress, frustrated at the technical unknowns, and impatient for the moment this entire system exists outside of Notion permanently.
What I Did Today – Summarized by AI Ran four miles with Lexi, handled soreness afterward, worked on Cursor and debugging, attempted to load and test software updates, recorded the show, had a Zoom call with Mina, reviewed dashboards, reviewed processes, discussed Stripe logic, worked through Notion migration planning, reflected on system progress and pressure.
