After a much-needed July break, I’m catching you up on everything—from the real (and sometimes complicated) privilege of being a content creator, to the weird backlash I got for taking time off, to the chaos living in my notes app all month.

It’s a little bit of everything—because that’s what this podcast is, and honestly? That’s what I missed most.
