The Mandalorian and Grogu, The End of Oak Street, and Why We Need Escapism (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Note 2 Self, Saskia is leaving for Europe, running on hay fever and a million unfinished tasks, and laughing at the timing of a very human spiral. Just two days after recording an episode about coming through a hard period, she found herself turning every uncertainty in her life into one enormous snowball. Then a friend stopped her with a simple reminder: not every problem belongs in the same lane. That conversation opens into the worlds Saskia reaches for when reality gets to
Growing Up Australian, Building a Life in New York, and Who I’m Still Becoming (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Note 2 Self, Saskia is reintroducing herself in this get to know me episode. But getting to know someone is never just a list of facts. It is the contradictions, detours, and dreams that keep changing shape. Saskia shares what it was like growing up in Australia, from being born near the Daintree rainforest next to a crocodile-infested river to watching Sex and the City at fourteen and deciding that New York would one day be home. Nearly ten years after arriving with two suitc
Bethenny Frankel at Burning Man, Earle Meets World, and the Difference Between Stuck and Still (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Note 2 Self, Saskia wonders whether the “rut” she has spent much of this year trying to escape was actually a season of stillness she needed to move through.

But first, she has thoughts on Bethenny Frankel at Burning Man. The problem is not her age or her outfits. It is what happe
Let’s Marry Harry, Marriage, and What Begins After the Wedding (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Note 2 Self, Saskia watches Netflix’s Let’s Marry Harry, a show that packages marriage as the prize at the end of a notorious fuckboy’s redemption arc. But by the reunion, that redemption looks far more like a television storyline than meaningful change. The wedding is over, the cameras are off, and the question becomes much more interesting: what actually makes a marriage work? Instead of letting reality television answer that question, Saskia asks several married friends wha
Outgrowing Friendships, Getting Over an Ex, and Loving Without Losing Yourself (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this episode of Note 2 Self, Saskia is thinking about connection: how we find it, how we grieve it and how we let it change us without disappearing inside it. After an emotional week, an SG Lewis set that takes her straight back to being 18 and the realisation that Burning Man will have to wait until 2028, she turns to Furious , the Emmy Rossum thriller exploring female anger, silenced voices and the complicated line between good and bad. That same question of connection follows Saskia into t
