I share an update on the situation with my cats — I don't go into details, but I explain that I finally understand the dynamics at play and feel like a weight has been lifted, even though I'm not ready to talk about specifics yet. I also get into where things stand financially: I lost my job, mentioned in the last episode, and I'm still job hunting, but I picked up some freelance web work for a scuba diving business and made a newsletter for their upcoming Fiji trip. I have a restaurant interview coming up on July 14th, though I won't be sharing where. I also talk about stepping back from TikTok and how that's affected my energy, and how writing on Facebook has been helping me get back into a creative headspace after some difficult past experiences. https://lyndseysmith.io/ https://devlyndseysmith.io/ https://shoplyndseysmith.io/ The link for the shirt you see in the image https://shoplyndseysmith.io/products/garden-of-eden ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/lyndseysmith-io-7358184/episodes/relief/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/lyndseysmith-io-7358184/relief.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
