                    • 551. Rupi Kaur Reflects on Being Almost 30: Boundaries, Friendships and Grief

                      Bestselling poet and author, Rupi Kaur, joins Krista for an intimate conversation on where she’s at in her life – mentally, emotionally, physically – as she nears her thirtieth birthday. In this raw, honest conversation, Rupi opens up about the deep grief she feels for herself, the mounting pressure that her success has brought into her life, and the realization that she needed time away from the noise.

                      She also takes us behind the scenes on the process of writing her latest, Healing Through Writing, a book of prompts and writing exercises that began as a personal practice to stimulate creative ideas. On that subject, Rupi adds that each and every person is innately creative – and invites us to embrace and cherish that energy in whatever way we can.

                      We also talk about:

                      • Feeling it all + carrying the weight
                      • Checking in before turning 30

                          • 550. Just Married: Lindsey’s Wedding Recap

                            It happened so fast that maybe you missed it – but, with only ten weeks of inspired and aligned planning, Lindsey and Sean celebrated their marriage a few weeks back. Hosting a non-traditional two-day event, they made their own dreams come true with friends and family in New York City and set the standard for their life together from this point on.

                            Lindsey drops in for this intimate solo episode to talk about the important energetically aligned decisions that went into her wedding weekend, how she and Sean built an even deeper trust in one another by splitting up planning duties, and how – even with only two weeks to find hair and makeup artists – she never spiraled under the pressure of it all.

                            We also talk about:

                            • Setting very clear intentions 
                            • Changing your perspective on spending

                            • To botox or not to botox?
                            • Energetic alignment with vendors
                            • Avoiding negative spirals 
                            • Detailed visualization practice

                                • 549. Emotional Maturity and its Importance in Relationships

                                  Prolific author and poet, Diego Perez, aka Yung Pueblo, sits with Lindsey for this special episode on the powers of meditation, living in partnership, the creative process, and so much more. We also talk about Lighter, his new book, inspired by the feeling of shedding weight and past traumas he’s experienced through his advanced meditation practice.

                                  Diego shares some great wedding tips and explains how he and his wife go ten, sometimes forty-five, days at a time without seeing or speaking to one another at meditation retreats – and how finding the practice has changed his worldview forever. 

                                  It might sound cliche, but this conversation will leave you feeling lighter. Diego’s words and deep wisdom, especially outside of the questionable confines of social media (which we also unpack), are powerful and resonant. 

                                  We also talk about:

                                  • Emotional immaturity vs. maturity 
                                  • Preventative communication
                                  • Meditation practice
                                  • Finding your intuition
                                  • Living in partnership
                                  • Diego’s creative process 
                                  • Who is Yung Pueblo?

                                      • 548. How an Empath Can Take Their Power Back and Fulfill Their Purpose

                                        In today’s solo episode, Krista drops in for part two of her deep dive on empathy, codependency, and enmeshment to break down their similarities and importance differences. Who are you, really? And why is it so hard for highly sensitive people to untangle the answer from everything around them?

                                        Your empathic gifts don’t need to be a weight on your life, or a curtain blocking the light from coming through. If understood and acknowledged from a place of personal love and acceptance, they can be your superpower. We all have some of it within us; Krista gets extra personal in this one to illustrate that very point. 

                                        We also talk about:

                                        • Powers of an empath
                                        • Intro to codependency 
                                        • Krista’s childhood denying her gifts 
                                        • Loyalty vs. low self-worth
                                        • Energy matching for safety 
                                        • Empathy as performance
                                        • Validate me, internet 
                                        • Speaking + living in truth

                                              Jordana Abraham is one-third of the founding team behind OG online humor and content brand, Betches. K + L visit their New York headquarters for this one, as Jordana walks through how a parody blog they started in college has grown into a full-blown media empire.

                                              We talk about team dynamics and the delicate dance of dividing up business responsibilities amongst friends, and unpack the team’s shift into podcasting as a means to have deeper conversations about the world around them.

                                              Jordana is a breath of fresh air, a reminder that, considering the many stressors around us at any given time – we shouldn’t take ourselves too seriously. We are here to laugh and to love abundantly. And sometimes that means memes.

                                              We also talk about:

                                              • Balancing the Betches empire
                                              • Team dynamics working in a trio
                                              • The beginning of Betches

                                                    Divine musician, vegan foods entrepreneur, and spiritual soul guide, Julie Piatt, joins Krista for her second appearance on the show as they take the temperature of the world and greater community within it. The results? Radical evolution is here to stay.

                                                    Julie explains that the power of the divine feminine is on the rise and provides practices which allow us to recognize and channel it. She also talks about the seasons of her relationship, honoring herself and her wisdom in celebration of her sixtieth birthday, and tells of a deeply meaningful pilgrimage to India, twelve years ago, which connected to a recent near-death experience.

                                                    Julie is another in a long line of Almost 30 guests who not only contain and embody a true sense of divine purpose, but emit it out into the world through their words and energetic signature. We felt, and continue to feel, this one on a level that opens our hearts in a way that was so necessary. We hope you enjoy it.

                                                          Kayleigh Christina and Danielle Gronich, the brilliant co-founders of CLEARSTEM skin care and wellness products, are back for a second round with K + L. Bringing another batch of invaluable wisdom, they shed major light on the sunscreen industry, detailing which ingredients you should be looking for (zinc-based sunscreens!) and which are disqualifying or otherwise harmful to our skin.

                                                          Backed in real-deal science and medical fact, we get an update on lifestyle and dieting tips for clear skin and unpack the important roles that stress and inflammation play in this complex scenario. The fact is, skin care goes so much deeper than what we can see on the surface.

                                                          We also talk about CLEARSTEM’s amazing new anti-acne supplement and all the natural science behind their incredible product line. Try their CLEARSTEM Clear Skin Kit and use code: Almost30 for 15% off!
