Note To Self

Today a wild thing happened. The yes, I was afraid of in episode one happened. In real time, in this episode.

It happens as I talk about the fears that hold us back from chasing our dreams. Fear of rejection, fear of judgment. I've felt it all. But here’s the truth: taking that leap, even in small ways, can lead to incredible opportunities.

Remember, consistency is key! It’s not just about reaching goals but about the growth we experience along the way. Each time we push through discomfort, we build resilience.

So, what are you waiting for? Hit send on that email, DM, or whatever it is you’ve been holding back on. Let’s embrace the journey together!

"The Most Telling Episode Yet" Season Finale | Note To Self

In this season's final episode, we turn the mic around. I, Leah Tindale, host of Note To Self, am interviewed by none other than Michael Ross. Together, we peel back the layers of my journey: from the early struggles of trying to fit in and solve the puzzle of life, to the unsettling moment when my old spiritual beliefs no longer seemed to fit.

This is the most vulnerable I’ve been yet. We talk identity, transformation, and the ongoing search for meaning. Who was I? Who am I now? And who do I hope to become?

Join us for a raw, reflective conversation to close out the season—one that I hope resonates with wherever you are in your own journey.
