We all have so much to learn from his grounded mindset, his approach to purpose and impact, and his appreciation for life’s many beautiful gifts. We know you’ll leave this one feeling refreshed and ready to deepen your connection to the world around you.

              • 533. Exploring the Feminine Experience and its Relationship to Capitalism, Feminism, and Burnout

                We are completely burning ourselves out – full stop. 

                In this stream-of-consciousness solo episode, Krista delves into her perceptions of our current reality, specifically, that related to the deepening bond between capitalism and modern feminism. 

                What does it mean to be a feminist in 2022? Or, more importantly, what are we being told that it means? How has a grinding life of hustling and climbing the corporate ladder become so much more heavily favored over a loving, soft, nurturing life at home raising a family? There’s got to be room for all shades of the feminine palette.

                Krista opens the door to a wider experience, for a more inclusive ideology that, instead of shaming or shutting people out, makes space for respect, freedom, and happiness for all of the many manifestations of our time here on earth.

                We also talk about:

                • The connections between modern feminism + capitalism 
                • Harmful social norms + where they came from
                • Reclaiming words that were taken from us
                • Giving up the negative baggage 
                • Living in true freedom + choice
                • Embracing all parts of us as divine

                  • 532. Detoxing Your Body and Relationships for Longevity with Queen Afua

                    Queen Afua is just that, an absolute queen – in her boundless energy, her crystal clear outlook, and her gravitational pull on young women looking for answers. As a pioneer in the clean eating and natural wellness space, it's her mission to provide those answers through the power of nature and all of its amazing gifts.

                    A bestselling author, speaker, holistic health practitioner, guide, and mentor – she’s changed the lives of millions, and thrives off of the healing process, both in herself and in others. Her practice is rooted in her own experience, as is so often the case. We learn how she cured herself of eczema, arthritis, and asthma as a teen and how that awakening has inspired the rest of her life and career.

                    We also touch on emotional eating, detoxing the mind and body as it relates to intimacy and relationships, the immense power of listening and asking questions, and so much more – this one goes deep and stays light all at the same time. More than deep, Queen shares specific tactical advice that we can all incorporate into our lives, today, in order to effect positive change in our wellbeing. 

                    It is such an honor and privilege to bring you this truly heart opening conversation. Queen was such a great presence to share space with; we sincerely hope our synchronicity shines through while you listen and welcomes you in for a hug (or a warm bath!).

                    We also talk about:

                    • Life before she was Queen 
                    • Healing through a change in diet 
                    • Impeccable listening 
                    • Crisis as an opportunity to ask questions 
                    • The power and long history of inversion poses  
                    • Emotional eating 
                    • Sacred bath practice

                        • 531. Demystifying the Conscious Relationship

                          Conscious relationship... It's one of the most common buzzwords that's in the relational space right now. It can bring up confusion, angst, and other complicated emotions we don’t want to be spending too much time in. So, what is it? And how can we practice it, or be ready for it, when the time comes?

                          In this episode, Lindsey walks us through what she thought a relationship should be before finding Sean, what she assumed a conscious relationship would be, and the truth of what living in this aligned mutual practice actually looks and feels like. It starts, like so many things do, with loving yourself unconditionally. It ends, well, never! And that’s exactly how it’s meant to be. Enjoy!

                          We also talk about:

                          • How we’ve grown + changed as partners 
                          • What is a conscious relationship?

                                      In celebration of Camp Almost 30 coming up soon, we’re sharing one of the most amazing talks we’ve ever had the pleasure of hosting. At last summer’s camp, master healer and teacher, Devi Brown, gave a workshop that truly stopped time. In it, she shares four steps to living a limitless life.

                                      Take a deep breath and settle in as Devi explores moving through limiting thoughts, connecting with your personal myth, and creating the internal structure needed to live within a path of ease, grace, and unlimited access to the highest version of your life.

                                      We also talk about:

                                            The way she balances energies, of the more mentally taxing things, like her businesses and boundaries; with softer elements of her life, like her growing family and boundless creativity, is such a great example of what’s possible if we’re willing to do the work necessary to make it happen.

                                            We talk about how she’s built her business to run on its own, parenting dynamics, body image, team building, and so much more. Jenna reminds us that success, struggle, and healing all look and feel different to every single person – that grace and forgiveness are some of the best gifts we can give ourselves. 

                                            We also talk about:

                                                • 527. The Business of Birth Control with Ricki Lake & Abby Epstein

                                                  Ricki Lake and her longtime business partner and filmmaker, Abby Epstein, join the show today to talk about their groundbreaking new documentary film, The Business of Birth Control – a truth finding journey where they tell the impactful stories of women who’ve had a whole range of experiences on, and coming off of, hormonal contraceptives.

                                                  As we’ve seen and heard in past episodes on this subject, this community has a very direct connection to the modern birth control story. Until very recently, our knowledge had been strictly experiential. Now, with documentaries like this and other dedicated research, we’re learning more about what these drugs do in our bodies, and to our minds. It’s critically important work, and so important for all women, especially young girls, to know and understand.

                                                  From June 22nd to 26th, The Business of Birth Control will be available to watch for FREE in the USA and Canada! You can grab your ticket here. And for those who miss the free streaming event, you can use the code "Almost30" for 50% off by clicking here.

                                                  We encourage you to share this one with a friend or family member to, as Ricki mentions, pay it forward and empower the next generation with information they can act upon for their best interests. Enjoy.

                                                        Drop in and open your heart for this warm hug of an episode as the amazing author and psychologist, Dr. Thema Bryant, walks us through the most relatable and actionable self-help practices you’ll ever come across. K + L get personal with their own experiences and lessons from therapy during this truthful, energetic, and enlightening episode. 

                                                        Dr. Thema helps us unpack the impact of social media on our sense of self, explaining the nuance to how and why narcissism seems (it actually isn’t!) so apparent in the space. We also learn how the most outward and seemingly self-promotional actions can actually be manifestations of shame, fear, and guilt – and how to understand that dynamic in yourself and in others.

                                                        How to live more authentically, foster more meaningful relationships, avoid the pitfalls of self-erasure, and process the endless wave of Insta therapy – you don’t want to miss it.
