Ayla and Potato3s: A Nightly Message From Your Best Friend

On 9/11, I took myself on a date : lunch at Luby’s, a movie, and time to honor life. I received a healing for love, released guilt from past relationships, and remembered: real love doesn’t ask me to shrink. Today, I feel lighter, in my power.

Today I took it easier, I sent emails for my company, bought my website, and did thumb-pulling six times without gagging. I cried over my friend’s song, trusted tarot for encouragement, and read my manifesting letter out loud. Rest, progress, and love all flowed together. Here’s the link to the YouTube video with my friend singing: https://youtube.com/shorts/jUGWLqnJBnc?si=7vM5zhkSkWKp7dGj

On four hours of sleep, I still kept my word: rehearsed monologues, wrote in all three books, resubmitted my guided journal, and decided to publish Love in a Hopeless Place. I’m learning self-love, proud of my progress, and standing in my power.

Today I leaned into acting, rehearsed monologues, and uploaded two to YouTube. I made space for school and writing too. I stretched, breathed, and kept reminding myself that God’s in control, not me. Opportunities are coming, and I’m choosing abundance, even with little in my bank.

I saw today as quiet, yet it woke me up: my classmate showed me why my company is built on loyalty, not cash grabs. I read 152 pages, remembered past loves, laughed at old farts, and realized that love keeps seeing me before I do .

Today felt ordinary, yet it held quiet medicine: flipping my thyroid pill bottle, gagging less when thumb pulling , seasoning cottage cheese, remembering how joy in Massachusetts healed my body. I’m tired, longing for a hug, but grateful to keep showing up here with you.

I shared my morning alignment routine, from prayer to Kundalini yoga, and realized how much I do daily to set the tone. On TikTok Live we manifested my journal’s success, which moved me to tears. I also reflected on healing, mentorship, and God as my supply , reminding myself I’m covered in luck and supported .

I shared how a silly bath “rotisserie chicken” moment led me into talking about viral videos, thumb-pulling experiments, and dealing with unexpected feedback online. Between cavities, canceled dates, and manifesting wins, I kept reminding myself that I’m the prize, always evolving.

I’m calling myself a superstar tonight since my thyroid numbers are off the charts, and not in the good way. But I’m back on meds, doubling down on yoga, vitamins, and manifesting letters. I stretched, recorded monologues, stocked up on groceries, and even had a four-hour heart-to-heart with a friend who really gets me. Life feels heavy and blessed all at once, and I’m choosing to believe things a...

I dropped off my sample at the doctor, returned my library books, and reminded myself that what’s meant for me will always find me. I wrote a 30-day manifesting letter, set big intentions, found a mentor, and kept faith in my journal’s success.

Today was about ease. I went to Portillo’s for the first time (the hot dog was meh, but the Italian beef dipped in gravy was better). I spent the afternoon at Dillard’s trying on designer clothes, shoes, and bags , manifesting the glam version of me. It felt good to step into that energy and remember life doesn’t always have to be lemon difficult. Sometimes, it can be easy peasy lemon squeeze y.

I wrapped up August by clearing space for September, setting my theme as Simply Spectacular. Small wins stacked up : abundance, gratitude, health steps, journaling , and I’m choosing to believe life only gets better and better.

Yesterday I fell asleep for 14 hours with the lights on after such a fun day out with my friend. Someone surprised me with $10 on CashApp, and I even applied for a book scholarship. I set up my phone bill on autopay, bought chips that reminded me of old favorites, and had the best chicken sandwich of my life. Even with questions about money, health, and school, I’m moving forward by trusting, appl...

Today felt soul led. I got approved for food stamps, re ceived $200 which took a weight off my shoulders, and even got gifted a drink when I forgot my wallet. The biggest win , I finished and submitted my guided journal to KDP at $15.55, a number of transformation. Nervous and excited, but proud .

I returned my iPad and some Amazon purchases to save money, rehearsed monologues in the car, and had an eye-opening doctor’s visit about Hashimoto’s. An unexpected $200 gift felt like a divine sign. Between donuts, journaling, and dreams of publishing, I’m learning balance in busy seasons .

Today I had my consult for surgery, but Hashimoto’s may make me ineligible unless my labs clear me. I returned my iPad, reduced my bill, and kept working on my guided journal , almost 1 65 questions now! Nervous and excited aka “ nervcited” to publish my third book this year. And so it begins…

I caught up on my 21-day challenge, recorded monologues, and worked on my guided journal. Tomorrow is packed: doctor’s appointment, workout, call, and school. I’m practicing focus, even while juggling Kundalini yoga, content, and side projects. One step at a time.

Today wasn’t huge or flashy, but it mattered. I slept in, saw family, did my homework, and had new ideas about turning emotions into something healing. Finished a book, did day two of Kundalini yoga, and planned for tomorrow. My life really does only get better and better.

I spent today creating : from designing my guided journal cover to starting day one of Kundalini yoga (which feels like punishment-meets-transformation). I read part of a fantasy novel, reflected on my monologues, and even did laundry. On TikTok Live last night , I hyped people up, and one friend said she loved how I boosted everyone. That made me realize , I’m a natural hype person, and everyone...

Today reminded me that my life only gets better and better. From an upgraded flight to New York, to my brother gifting me a red Tumi suitcase, to realizing how proud I am of myself , everything feels like an upgrade. I enter, I win.

I tackled 75% of my list today , I missed food and school but gained small wins like paying a bill early, buying my iPad, and staying on track. I’m learning to balance joy, responsibility, and dreams one day at a time .

Today I bounced back from one of my lowest points yesterday . As it turns out , letting myself fully feel sad actually cleared the way for me to feel lighter. I found out my audition was officially submitted (!!!), and even though I wasn’t the only one, it gave me hope. I hosted a live group manifesting session for the black moon, and we prayed for everything from dream jobs to paying off houses....

Today I rewrote my monologue from the 21-day challenge, but this time to my 6-year-old self. I pictured watching her through the living room window watching her as she is terrified, confused, hiding behind Grandma and told her she grows up to be strong, smart, and loved. It was healing, even though it made me cry. I also realized I don’t have to live life on anyone else’s schedule, and that some d...

Today was about forward motion and unexpected wins. I found out my free mini tummy tuck study actually pays me aka $ 200 gift card (and more) coming my way! I finished my storyboard (stick figures and all), made a blanket-selling video for a hosting audition, and tackled my 21-day challenge homework by writing a monologue to my mom to heal an old wound. I also test-sat in the Lexus GX Overtrail an...

Today wasn’t super amazing, but better is better. I skipped the gym, wrote in my book, learned I have one of the highest grades in class, and kept pivoting toward my goals. Still here, still showing up because even small better counts.
