Getting ready to send the calling card on the 3rd palace. This one seemed to give me a lot of trouble. Including the calling card it took up 4 days the other 2 palaces I was able to do in 3. I think there is an SP item you can get from a confidant that makes SP trivial, so I'll make sure to get that before the 4th palace.
Befriending the doctor at the clinic gets you access to SP restoring accessories. Definitely something something to focus on ASAP if you want to make things easier.
I found the first palace to be the toughest because it was the only one I did without her gear.
