Bio
Hi. My names Leah. 
I'm more than happy to talk about any topic. Nothing is too big or to small to have someone sit with you, and just listen. 
I can't offer advice, or 'fix' anything for you, but I'll always offer a safe space for you to be heard and to have your stories received in a warm and respectful way.
Honestly, I'm not online a lot, and when I am I'm not always able to stop and have lengthy conversations, but I'm more than happy to exchange 'offline' messages, and to chat in greater length should we end up online at the same time.
I hope you're well, and if you're not, that's okay too. I hope you find what you need here at 7cups.

Feedback & Reviews
Very kind. This one of the best chats I ever had on here.
Really amazing listener. Always here to help whenever I need. Lovely to chat with, and has a wacky sense of humour which helps a lot!
The most amazing person i have met here!! She's just so sweet and kind and caring! She made me feel so so much better! Would love to talk to her again. :)
Leah listened to me for several hours just letting me cry about the multiple situations I'm currently in. I've never had anyone here allow me to be free and just let it all out in my own time and pace. I have never felt such a heavy weight of this burden lift for a moment. Thank you for your acceptance, lack of judgement, compassion, empathy and patience for me. You really are someone special. ♥
Reconnecting with Leah always instanteously makes me remember how awesome she is. :)
I appreciate how StandForFreedom took time to listen to me. We had to set it up ahead of time since I think we are about 14/15 hrs time difference. I am so glad to have been able to talk with her! I felt very cared for and that she did understand. Thanks for spending some time with me.
She was great! Helped a lot!
If listeners were biscuits, Leah would be an Oreo. She is metaphorically and literally the best, both skilled at understanding you and supporting you in moving forward. :) Warmly recommended!
couldn't ask for a better listener thank you so much for everything
Cant ask for a better listener that will untrsend you abd wont you are going though. Is all ways here to help and talk you though the bad times. I can't think her enough.
Marvelous person and one of the best and nicest listeners I've ever had
Best listener I have fend on here. All ways there to support you with anything. Do things in my time and just let's me talk and out it all out with out judged me.
excellent listener! made a follow-up appointment when we ran out of time, very nice!
What a sweetie!!!
What a stellar listener. She is incredibly positive, uplifting and insightful. I would highly recommend this listener to anyone who is in need of a guiding spirit. Thank you so much, truly.
I contacted Leah because of her awesome reputation. And already after our first chat, I can say that she definitely earned it! :D
She was really great and I felt so much better after talking to her. It was just like talking to a caring friend.
Thank you
Fantastic listener, always there when needing a chat. Very helpful and empathetic, could not find a better listener than this lovely lady
Such a great listener. Really listens to what I have to say, and helps me to see things from a different angle.
awesome chat Freedom .... thank you

very supportive.... and understanding.... Freedom is one of the best listeners I've had so far....
I was very comfortable with the flow of the chat....
Very easy going.... Let the chat go at my pace.... And it gave me a chance to get everything out.... And boy was it a lot.... But I felt like this kind listener took the time to understand my situation.... Put themselves in my shoes.... Gave me the support I needed to feel better....
After the chat you definitely feel like you are not trapped in your own dark place....

P.S the username/screen name is a perfect fit.... I came to vent feeling trapped in emotions and came out really happy and free so to speak.... Like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders....

I highly recommend freedom to any guest/ member and/or listener.... With freedom you will not be disappointed.... You state what you're looking to get out of the chat, and as long as your goal doesn't beak the guidelines for the chats, you wont be left to get to your goal alone.... You will feel very accomplished from the chat, I'm sure.... At least I did....

I came here for support, and a understanding individual, and that is exactly what I got.... Perhaps even better.... Freedom did a wonderful job making me feel heard and understood....

I look forward to more chats like this one with you Freedom.... I would give you so many stars if I could.... Instead I will use hearts.... You are definitely a 5
StandForFreedom was kind, simply put. Was attentive, making sure I was there, even when I lost connection they were patienly waiting when I was able to get back. I left the chat feeling a little more calm, I'll keep this kind spirit in mind when I'm anxious in the future.
Great listener all ways there
Good listener.
Great listener very compassionate. Made me feel calm and talked me through my worries
Great to talk to
Amazing listener
