  • Ep. 146 - A Lesson on Fasting, Breaking Sugar Addiction, and The Fountain of Youth with Superfood School Founder Lynnette Astaire

    Today we chat with a great friend of ours, Lynnette Astaire, the Founder of Superfood School. Lynnette has an incredible story and a fascinating relationship with food, a tool she’s used to overcome PCOS and radiate from the inside out.

     


    Just as a disclaimer for this episode: we talk a lot about juice fasting, but we’re not pushing anything or suggesting anyone do a fast necessarily. Our philosophy is always do what is best for your body! But Lynette’s take on fasting and the science behind it is unique.  We loved digging into the mental and spiritual awakenings she experiences during her fasts.


     


    We talk about...


     


    • Lynnette’s famous green juice
    • The two different types of juicers
    • Why the most important part of a fast is how you break it
    • Lynnette’s journey with food
    • An entrepreneurial Rice Krispie Treat story
    • Learning how to run a franchise
    • The origins of Superfood School
    • Lynnette’s favorite superfoods
    • What you can do to get the nutrients you need when life is just too busy
    • The controversy around smoothies + juice fasting
    • How to break a sugar addiction
    • Impossible Burger VS Beyond Burger
    • What makes a healthy snack bar?
    • This cycle we call life

  • Ep. 144 - John Wineland LIVE: Deeper Sex, Masculinity + Spiritual Intimacy

    A few weeks ago, Lindsey + Krista had the pleasure of hosting a live conversation and Q+A with John Wineland, a transformational relationship expert, a spiritual intimacy teacher, and the guest on episode 96 + episode 97 of this show. John led the audience through a conversation about practicing the art of embodiment, intimate communication, and feeling for better relationships and a deeper connection in your love life.

     


    And as always, #ALMOST30NATION was so open and vulnerable with their questions.  Questions answered touched on topics like intimacy and dating, the energetic dynamics of a relationship, sex, and so much more. (Of course, we’ll also be chatting all about it in the Secret Facebook Group!)


     


    We discuss…


     


    • The 3 layers of sex: physical, emotional, & energetic
    • Masculine essence + sex
    • Yogic practices for strengthening your consciousness + turning your body into an invitation for love
    • Do you have a masculine or feminine energy? Maybe both?
    • Cultivating both your feminine + your masculine
    • You can have a conscious one night stand
    • How to live thriving, energized lives aligned with a deep purpose
    • Invaluable tools that evoke the best from your partners for years to come
    • How to reinvigorate relationships full of love, connection – and sex!
    • Training your nervous system to express what’s true at a deeper level

    Alli Webb has managed to capture that lightning in a bottle with Drybar.  Alli has never let the fear of failure stop her from building a business. She has experienced exponential growth over the last 8 years because she filled a gap in the market at the perfect time.  105+ Drybar locations (doing 1.2 million blowouts every year), developing a hair care product line, writing a New York Times bestseller, and raising two incredible children.

     


    Alli is down-to-earth, funny, present and so, so kind.  This powerhouse was recently on Fortune’s 40 Under 40 list—GOALS.  She took time away from her busy schedule for an afternoon with us. She is such an expander for us, and we know she will be for you too!


     


    We chat about…


     


    • Alli’s always-changing routine
    • The journey to creating Drybar (by way of house calls)
    • The ups + downs of running a business with your family
    • Accessible self-care
    • The most difficult parts of being an entrepreneur (especially in the first few years of building a business)
    • Showing up as a mom + building a business
    • Transitioning from stay-at-home mom to badass breadwinner
    • Creating the unique Drybar branding + Alli’s advice for creating your own brand
    • Why working at Drybar isn’t for every stylist
    • Balancing being open + creating reasonable boundaries online
    • Making the time to take care of yourself as an entrepreneur

  • Ep. 142 - What is White Privilege? Waking Up to Our Unconscious Biases with Thais Sky

    Thais Sky is a truth speaker, healer, women's coach, and feminist on a heart-led mission to have important conversations at the intersection of feminism + spirituality, and today she’s re-joining Lindsey + Krista to once again tackle some really big questions: How can we begin to dismantle our unconscious biases?  How can we all be better allies to one another? And how can we provide a safe space for more conversations like these?

     


    We are constantly striving to evolve ourselves and this show by bringing more diverse voices into the conversation –as always, we are learning right along with you all.  So thank you for being to open and vulnerable


     


    This episode includes…


     


    • Opportunities for growth
    • Being addicted to our shitty thoughts + shitty people
    • Trying not to compartmentalize our own spirituality
    • Feeling unworthy of your own self-care
    • We can't show up for others if we’re not showing up for ourselves.
    • Everything is about power dynamics
    • The governmental + societal systems that keep certain groups of people oppressed
    • How white women contribute to + benefit from racism
    • How we can REALLY educate ourselves about systematic oppression + privilege
    • If you don’t look at a wound, if you don’t take care of it, it’s going to get worse
    • As privileged white girls, what is our place in the conversation?
    • With privilege comes responsibility
    • Living in an emotionally illiterate culture
    • “You can’t love other people until you love yourself” sounds really nice – but that’s not necessarily the case!
    • How to avoid tokenizing people of color
    • When people say they’re “color blind”
    • People need to do this work imperfectly (because perfect just isn’t going to happen)
    • Deciding what kind of legacy we want to leave
