In this soulful and energizing episode, Beth welcomes Krista Williams — thought leader, speaker, and beloved co-host of the Almost 30 podcast — for a heartfelt conversation that goes deep into what it really means to grow, evolve, and live life on your own terms. Together, they unpack the pressures women face to "have it all figured out" by a certain age and challenge the idea that success needs to follow a specific timeline.

Krista shares openly about her own journey through self-discovery, vulnerability, and healing, and how she’s learned to honor her emotional capacity instead of pushing through just to meet outside expectations. The two dive into the importance of self-compassion, the transformative power of gratitude, and how embracing both our masculine and feminine energy can help us show up more fully in every part of life.

You’ll hear refreshing takes on slowing down, creating space for rest, and letting go of shame around needing time, reflection, or change. This is a must-listen for anyone navigating transitions, questioning societal norms, or simply craving permission to trust their own path. Whether you're dreaming about what’s next or healing from what’s been, this episode will leave you feeling seen, inspired, and grounded in the truth that your timing is perfect — just as it is.
