The challenges that changed her life
The end of her corporate career (which involved an emotionally abusive boss who bullied her constantly)
How to find your mission, while still working hard at your goals
The blog bubble, and helping women become entrepreneurs through their blog
How to be successful working from home
How you can make money from your blog
COMPARISON, what we do about it, who we compare ourselves to, and how it's the true thief of joy

Why less planning and more doing is sometimes the key

Ep. 18 - Cleav, Slutty Costumes, Drunk Cooking, + The Call to Manifest Nov 15, 2016

Show notes

Cleavage, man. Too much is always enough. And not enough, always has intention. In the candid opening of this weeks Almost 30, Krista and Lindsey reflect on their cleavage practices back in the day and how it serves them now.

It's been way too long since the girls have shared their "20's Us, 30's Us". Halloween gave Krista some serious inspiration. Hey ladies, still have that 'slutty inmate' costume in a plastic bin under your bed just in case? Fella's, admit it, how confused/disturbed were you by girls' attempts at 'sexy grandma'. Krista reflects on Halloween past and present. The two are alarmingly/thankfully very different. Lindsey remembers her late night eating habits in her early 20's...Turkey and Eggo Waffles anyone? She talks about her current commitment to a more mindful relationship with food.

This week the girls call a listener from Utah! UTAH! Ali's question about the law of attraction develops into a full blown discussion about manifestation, cultivating your tribe, and how you are the average of the five people you spend most of your time with.

This episode is like an EVERYTHING BAGEL. You can't not love something about it. *double negative, sorry English teachers of past*.

Ep. 17 - Interview with the Ladies of 'Le Sweat', Charlee Atkins & Meridith Miller Nov 08, 2016

Show notes

We'd like to interrupt this week's show notes with a quick disclaimer regarding the first 8 minutes of this episode: The sound is gently distorted by the sweet aliens that were helping to connect Le sweat in NYC to Almost 30 in LA. Feel free to skip over the part where Lindsey messaged some guy on Instagram because he had beautiful succulents. THEY WERE BEAUTIFUL, OKAY!? Around, the 8 minute mark, all is right in the world.

This week Almost 30 welcomes the ladies behind Le Sweat, a fresh online publication that shakes up the idea of 'working out'. Charlee Atkins, an uber popular SoulCycle Instructor and fitness model, and Meridith Miller, a lady boss of partnerships at Twitter, are exploring their own idea of "working on working out". The physical sweat is just the beginning. The ladies talk 'inner-cising', being alone (not lonely), social media, knowing thyself after the end of a long-term relationship, why everyone should take a friend-moon, their popular articles filed under "Stroke His Ego", and how Charlee and Meredith are already OWNING their 30's. This one is candid and inspiring. After you listen, check out www.le-sweat.com!

Ep. 16 - How to Deal with Rejection *Minisode* Nov 04, 2016

Show notes

The girls have a very candid conversation about rejection. Krista shares what it was like auditioning for SoulCycle, what she learned, how she was redirected, and how it helped to pave the path to her successful blog. Lindsey shares how putting herself in front of rejection more often (auditions, auditions, auditions) creates a healthy non-attachment to the outcome so that her pursuit is always exciting. They discuss the "something greater" that is at work, the challenge to trust it, and what happens when our preparation meets it. If you are experiencing rejection in your career, romantic relationships, family life, in the pursuit of your dreams, internally between you and you....YOU WILL RELATE.

Ep. 15 - Tinder, Ghosting, Trump, & Twitter Trolls Nov 01, 2016

Show notes

The topic table is a BUFFET this week. Krista and Lindsey share their "Hundred, NOT Hundred's". Lindsey got a haircut, so tell ya friends. But on a note that is so typical/weird us: Who would have thought that finding out what your moon sign is would open up a whole new world of understanding? Like, "OH WOW I become two different people when someone calls me on my sh*t" becomes less psycho and more acceptable when you are able to lean on your astrological moon sign. The girls also celebrate and talk about the importance of cultivating a tribe of people that support and lift you up, that give you permission to be vulnerable and open, and that acknowledge your vision and give it light. Their NOT HUNDRED's are pretty darn relevant . Let's just say they talk the circus that is the 2016 election, as well as the moment your "EX" finds a new gf/bf. *GASP*

FINALLY. GHOSTING. What the heck is that? What qualifies as "ghosting"? Have we done it? Have we been ghosted? What is acceptable? How does one prevent the ghost? We get a call from a listener. She has just experienced a pretty gnarly case of ghostage. Sound guy, Steve, was apparently just ghosted last week. We come together as a fam and figure out what the EFF is going on here.

Ep. 13 - Defriending IRL? Oct 18, 2016

Show notes

It's just you and the girls this week, so grab some Cheez-Itz and get comfy. It's time for a little catch up by way of "Hundred, NOT Hundred". Krista is back from Bali, a place she never thought she would visit in her lifetime. They talk the trip, and how she got there...ON A HELLO KITTY PLANE. SWEAR. Lindsey was picked up by an amazing Uber driver and lifted up by his story and his candy collection. Their NOT hundred's are juuuust as good. Finally, a listener has written in asking the girls for their advice on letting go of friends as an adult. The girls talk redirection, priority shifts, dwindling common interests, and more. The truth is some friendships take more effort than they are worth. How do you make more room for those friends that will ride the wave with you no matter what? Krista and Lindsey share their experiences and discuss.

#Almost30 is having a mindful morning. That first hour will set the tone for the rest of your day, so quit half-assing and hating it. Krista and Lindsey outline their best mornings and explain why the rituals they have incorporated set them up for the BEST DAY EVER. Why the heck should you drink water first thing in the morning? Are you carving out a "moment" for yourself? How quickly do you grab phone after waking up? Get excited!! Your morning is about to become your sacred time.

Ep. 11 - Holistic Health Coach, Daniela Kende of Color Me Complete Oct 11, 2016

Show notes

"Daniela Kende is a board certified Holisitic Health Coach who supports busy professionals who want to lose weight, reveal more radiant skin, and find abundant energy to create the life they've always imagined." Are you raising your hand and screaming "ME, ME, ME, ME, ME!!"? The girls nearly fell off of their swivel chairs because they were nodding so hard during this interview. Daniela believes in peeling back the layers, digging deeper to reveal the real intention behind superficial 'wants'. Want to lose 20 lbs? Why? What would that mean for you? She talks about actually allowing ourselves to think about what we would IDEALLY feel like each day. We need permission for that? YUP. The girls share their dreams and goals and how aligning with your intention will increase the drive towards that goal.

How does creating a rule, like "I'm not a morning person", sell yourself short? Daniela and the girls discuss the limitations and how releasing the rule could change your life. What are your limiting beliefs...could they be the one thing holding you back from reaching your full potential?

Grab a pen and paper because Daniela also drops extremely useful tips on skin care, diet, balancing hormones, protein powders, and sugar. DANIELA KENDE is about to change the way to LIVE.

Ep. 10 - Let's Get Personal Oct 04, 2016

Show notes

In this episode of Almost 30, Lindsey and Krista interview each other. You'd think they know everything about one another, but the coolest part of friendship is finding out new sh*t about the other person every time you are together. You know!? The girls dig deep and get curious. Lindsey explains how attending an all-girls, private, Catholic school shaped who she is today, Krista gives us her vision of where she will be in ten years, and SO much more. It's still the beginning here at Almost 30, so the girls thought it was important you get to know them a little better.
