Thomas Knoll
🦋 I help leaders turn small moments into big outcomes.
Hi, my name is Thomas, and this is my ‘now’ page, inspired by Derek Sivers. It tells you (and reminds me) where my energy and attention are focused right now. This page was last updated December 18th, 2025 from my dining room table in White Bear Lake, MN.
What I am doing right now
A week before the holiday break, and I got hit by layoffs.
I lost my day job, but I didn’t lose my calling.
Jasmine Wilder once wrote, “Somewhere a seed just cracked open underground, completely certain that light exists.” I don’t yet know exactly what the next chapter looks like, but I am certain that it exists.
To bring this to life, I am:
- Searching for founders who need a partner focused on organizational growth and leadership development
- Hosting a community of Self Healing Leaders
What I am thinking about right now
This section is inspired by Zvi Band, who taught me that, “Richard Feynman had this idea of always carrying around a number of problems you’re thinking about, to help hone what you read, think about, and discuss with others.”
- Parenting is hard (if you try)
- USA feels like a tinderbox right now and
HealthSickCare in America is broken - I want access to land
- Am I awake? How do I know?
- How else can I increase the quality and quantity of curiosity in the world?
