When I run manage.py makemigrations, migrate, or start Celery, I get the following warning:

/home/taskitly/taskily/venv/lib/python3.11/site-packages/django/db/backends/utils.py:98: RuntimeWarning: Accessing the database during app initialization is discouraged. To fix this warning, avoid executing queries in AppConfig.ready() or when your app modules are imported. warnings.warn(self.APPS_NOT_READY_WARNING_MSG, category=RuntimeWarning)

I suspect a module in my app might be running a database query too early, perhaps in AppConfig.ready() or during module import. I've reviewed my settings and here is my settings.py file for reference:
