Given a taut depth-one foliation $\mathcal{ F}$ in a closed atoroidal 3-manifold $M$ transverse to a pseudo-Anosov flow $\phi$ without perfect fits, we show that the universal circle coming from leftmost sections $\mathfrak{ S}_\mathrm{ left}$ associated to $\mathcal{ F}$, constructed by Thurston and Calegari-Dunfield, is isomorphic to the ideal boundary of the flow space associated to $\phi$ with natural structure maps. As a corollary, we use a theorem of Barthelm\'e-Frankel-Mann to show that there is at most one pseudo-Anosov flow without perfect fits transverse to $\mathcal{ F}$ up to orbit equivalence.
