Episode Summary by AI
I ranted about busting my ass to meet Brian’s deadline only to be ghosted after delivery. I talked about how GPT kept failing to generate a working Sheets formula, but Claude nailed it. I broke down my hours, earnings, and how I’m tracking progress toward a $23K goal by October. I also got real about the isolation I’ve felt lately. Then I detailed all 17+ custom Notion systems I’ve built for EmmyFit and laid out early ideas for my coding curriculum project.

My Thoughts & Feelings for Today - Summarized by AI
I’m proud of what I built, but I’m annoyed, tired, and a little emotionally burnt. I did great work today, and the EmmyFit Notion system is insane. But the lack of response from everyone frustrates me. Claude outperformed GPT which both pissed me off and got me excited. I feel super isolated lately, like I’m grinding alone in a dark room while everyone else is living. Still, I want this. This is what I want. Even when it kinda sucks.
What I Did Today - Summarized by AI
Finished Brian’s project, clocked nearly 5 hours for PTDOM, 2.25 for MEFit, battled GPT to generate a Sheets formula, switched to Claude, tracked my earnings toward the $23K goal, reflected on feeling isolated, and documented 17+ custom Notion systems built for EmmyFit.
