Greetings from Mexico. In this episode of Note 2 Self, Saskia shares stories from her last ten days in Todos Santos, a small beach town where desert, ocean, and mountains collide.

What begins as a travel diary unfolds into something deeper. From a boat day out of La Paz, swimming alongside sea lions, stumbling upon a frigate bird colony connected to her father’s past, and witnessing dolphins and whales appear at exactly the right moment, this trip felt touched by something larger.

But being surrounded by dusty roads, sandy hair, and no frills taco spots sparked a bigger question: why are we so obsessed with chasing perfection?

Saskia explores the pressure women face around beauty, the conditioning behind cosmetic rituals, how perfectionism has stalled her creative work, and why messy beginnings are often where growth lives. She also shares candid reflections on starting couples therapy one month into her relationship and the myth of the perfect partnership.

This episode is an invitation to see your life not as a project to complete, but as a work in progress.

Recorded from sunny Los Angeles, in this episode of Note 2 Self, Saskia shares her 2026 ins and outs. Yes, it’s February, but what’s truly "in" this year is doing things when we want to do them.

Saskia reflects on continuing to embrace her party-girl era, choosing ease at home, leaning into maximalism in her personal style, her current obsession with Wuthering Heights, nostalgia in pop culture, and being more intentional about how she spends her time and energy.

The episode also unpacks the cultural trope of the “cool girl” and why Saskia is ready to redefine what cool actually looks like in 2026.

Ultimately, this episode serves as a personal reset and an invitation to prioritize joy, authenticity, and self-expression without apology.

Recorded from sunny Los Angeles and joined by a very special guest, Ziggy the goldendoodle, this episode of Note 2 Self opens with a reflection on the energy of LA compared to New York City. The expansive, nature-connected rhythm of the City of Dreams contrasted with the intensity and density of NYC. Saskia explores what it means to find solitude in major cities, and the ways we often flatten places, and people, into single narratives.

The conversation then weaves into pop culture, with a discussion of The Traitors and a current fixation with our Love Island alumnus, Rob Rausch.

The episode turns inward as Saskia shares her personal oracle card practice using a deck passed down from her grandmother, reflecting on intuition, ritual, and how symbolic tools can offer insight beyond logic. Whether viewed as spiritual or reflective, the practice becomes a way to slow down, reset, and listen more closely.

This episode is all about presence, grounding, and how even reality TV can become a moment to escape and reset.

In this episode of Note 2 Self, Saskia reflects on seeing Fred Again live in New York during his residency and why the night felt less like a concert and more like a spiritual experience. She explores how great DJs read and channel energy, why live music creates such deep presence and connection, and what happens when we allow ourselves to fully experience a moment instead of trying to capture it.

From there, Saskia dives into the dreaded New Year’s resolutions. The pressure, the overwhelm, and the belief that January 1st is the only time we’re allowed to reset. She unpacks why resolutions can feel so heavy, how easy it is to feel like you’ve already failed, and why meaningful change is often found in listening to your body and making small, tangible daily shifts rather than rigid rules.

Touching on health, movement, alcohol, food, and goal-setting, this episode is a reminder that progress doesn’t require perfection... and starting over doesn’t need a calendar date. Tune in now!

Season 2 of Note 2 Self begins with a new chapter... and a new format. In this opening solo episode, Saskia reflects on the unexpected cultural moment around Heated Rivalry and what it reveals about the rise of romantasy in pop culture. From emotional escapism to collective obsession, this episode explores why stories like these resonate so deeply right now, and what they might be offering us beneath the fantasy. Join us for the conversation.

Happy holidays, N2S listeners 🎄 In this special episode, the girls kick things off with a very on-theme chat about childhood holiday traditions over the years. The conversation quickly pivots into tales of risqué holiday party behaviour, both witnessed and reported by friends, before naturally spiralling into a discussion on the morals around cheating.

From there, the girls dive into a brief but honest chat about relationships, before wrapping up with an old favourite: Love or Loathe. And as Cat’s final episode with Note 2 Self for the foreseeable future, this one’s equal parts nostalgic, chaotic, and heartfelt.

Join us for Cat’s final ride. And we'll see you in the new year for more N2S action ✨

In this week’s episode of Note 2 Self, the girls kick things off with the absolute chaos that is moving in New York City. From there, the conversation spirals (naturally) into the universal nightmare of dentists asking questions while their hands are literally in your mouth.

The episode then takes a turn into women’s health, with an honest, candid chat around IUDs and everything that comes with them. Finally, Cat wraps things up with a special announcement.

You don’t wanna miss this one.

In this week's episode of Note 2 Self, the girls recap their travel and Thanksgiving adventures across Argentina, Mexico, California, and Minnesota. They chat about the possibility of one day living in California, the stereotypes that come with it, and the importance of “finding community”. And in a surprise twist, Cat goes a little full woo-woo, proving California rubs off on everyone. It’s wholesome, warm, and the perfect post-holiday catch-up. Join us for the ride.

In this week’s episode of Note 2 Self, Saskia and Cat kick things off with some much-needed updates on Cat’s new dog, Albert, and an important spotlight on The Sato Project.

Then, for the first time in N2S history, the girls don’t spiral. Instead, they deep-dive into one big, slightly terrifying question: What does it mean to date an AI chatbot?

After reading "My Couples Retreat With 3 AI Chatbots and the Humans Who Love Them" by Sam Apple, the girls unpack the ethics, the fantasy, the emotional attachment, and what AI companionship could mean for the future of human connection... from loneliness to control to blurring the lines between reality and escapism.

It’s thoughtful, chaotic, and honestly… kind of juicy. Join us on the ride!

In this week’s episode of Note 2 Self, the girls kick things off with unexpected follow-ups to not one, but two of Cat’s most niche New York stories: Pogo Stick Guy and, of course, her beloved Paul Rudd.

From there, the spiral takes a spooky turn into personal ghost stories, ending in goosebumps, and the question of life after death. Finally, with today being Thanksgiving, the girls unpack the psychology of apologising... why it matters, why it’s hard, and why this season brings it all to the surface.

It’s chaotic, heartfelt, and a little haunted. Join us for the ride.
