Drop in for this mind-expanding conversation between Krista and Scott Berman, of Sky Cave Retreats in Oregon, to learn all about the hidden power of the dark, its ancestral lineage in healing and spirituality, and the life-changing practice of darkness retreats – an experience Krista takes in for herself soon after this interview and one which will be discussed in the next episode of Almost 30, later this week.

Scott is well versed in this mystic field, having spent extensive time in solitude, silence, and of course – in the dark as a means to soften into his own existence and understand the world’s collective song.

He shares a few eye-opening stories from recent participants, explains some of the neurology behind darkness and how it affects our brain, and sets our expectations for darkness retreats – by removing them completely.

On this fine Thursday, Lindsey’s dropping in for an introspective solo episode reflecting on patience. Deeply considering and doing research on the subject, she talks about the neuroscience of patience, how it shows up in our lives, and how we can walk through moments of impatience to a more centered place of acceptance and presence.

We do these solo episodes a couple times a month – as K+L unpack complex subject matter that they’ve processed in their own lives and which might be beneficial to the collective at large. After soaking in this one, check out a couple of Lindsey’s most recent solo episodes linked below.

Today’s episode is an amazing discovery conversation with The Holistic Psychologist, Dr. Nicole LePera (a beloved two-time Almost 30 guest) centered around her thoughtful new workbook, How to Meet Yourself, which is out now.

Here at Almost 30, we do aliens, we do channeling, we dabble in psychedelic therapy and dig into some of the deepest spiritual concepts out there – but this one is all about serious self-development, the complexities and questions we face as women, and how we can work to simplify it all for a more balanced, peaceful being.

Nicole is incredibly transformational in her work and with her words. We always love having her on and talking to her about the importance of doing the work, about all of these therapy-related topics that have really changed our lives over the years.

Our guest today is the brilliant Uma Naidoo, MD, a Harvard board-certified psychiatrist, professional chef, author, and nutrition specialist. Dr. Uma's book is called This is Your Brain on Food. It's a full guide to the surprising foods that fight things like depression, PTSD, ADHD, anxiety, OCD, and more. 

We go super cutting edge in this one as we talk about the undeniable relationship between our mental health and diet/nutrition.

We start with her own health journey and integrated practice before getting honest with a few familiar faces in our cupboards at home – coffee, alcohol, sugar, seed oils, etc. – myth busting and truth telling on what’s good, and what isn’t, for our mental wellbeing.

We all know the difference between feeling good after eating good, and feeling bad after eating poorly. Listen in to get the science on why that happens, and how we can design our diets (not restrict them) to unlock our best selves.

Are you building healthy boundaries, or putting up restricting walls? With the former taking center stage amongst the collective, it’s an important question to ask. 

This episode was inspired by the journey Krista’s been on to have deep and real intimacy in her relationships – a growing desire to untangle defensive mechanisms that create negative static between people and move toward a more heart-centered exchange with the people in and around her life. 

The truth is that some forms of boundary building have evolved into a method for gaslighting ourselves, a means to create a cozy victimhood to hide away in, an excuse for closing ourselves off from things, situations, or people that may expand us.

Earlier this week on the podcast, K+L spoke with Lee Harris, renowned channel and author of Conversations with The Z's. With luck, and maybe some divine intervention, Lee received a second download – a message from The Z’s urging him to channel, live, here on the show. 

This episode, part two of our conversation, presents his channeling of The Z’s in full – a very special honor and one we’re so thrilled to share with you today. 

Expecting and prompting them for a general message to the collective, K+L are surprised with an intimate and intuitive perspective on their own relationship (and relationships) past, present, and future. As specific as some of their observations are, The Z’s share paradigm-breaking lessons which ring true for all of us.

Today, we welcome back a cosmically gifted former guest to the podcast. Lee Harris is a channel to higher, multidimensional voices known as The Z’s. They’re responsible for his current work, a book series titled Conversations with The Z's, and for his incredibly informed and introspective perspective on the world around us – seen and unseen. 

The energetic give-and-take among these three activated hearts flows like music. He’s truly a mind-blowing conversationalist, and seems to pick up on a few psychic vibrations throughout the session. 

K+L interview the Z’s through Lee in this, part one, of their expansive conversation. Look out for part two on Thursday of this week to hear a live channeling, which takes us even deeper into the energetics of the new human soul – and beyond.

Things are about to get very galactic, friends, as world-renowned cosmic spirituality expert, Dr. Jude Currivan, joins the show for a very special, very expansive conversation.

Dr. Currivan is a cosmologist, a planetary healer, a futurist, and an international bestselling author, lauded for The Cosmic Hologram and now celebrating her latest release, The Story of Gaia, which also sounds like a must read. 

This conversation takes us to the truly endless, through the galaxies and cosmos – and back to the small, the simple, as we seek to understand and apply the science of unity, and the innate oneness that connects us all. 

This one really helps us to incorporate science and research into modern consciousness and allows us to see it from a different angle than I think we do now – all the angles at once, really. As we learn today, it’s not always easy, but it is very simple. Enjoy.

In this intimate solo episode, Lindsey unpacks clearing conversations – what they are, why we should have them, and how they can evolve our relationships. You’ll learn all about what clearing conversations are as she opens her heart about how the practice has helped her own relationships evolve and expand for the better.

Let’s be honest, it can be challenging to initiate clearing conversations; Lindsey shares how she overcomes these fears out of a place of love for the person on the other side. We also hear about how K+L use this practice to keep their own relationship strong.

Be prepared to take several mental notes from this one as we get a living example of the high value that K+L place on their connection with one another, and several actionable takeaways that we can apply in our own lives to build a stronger bridge of trust with the people closest to us.
