Almost 30 (Krista Williams & Lindsey Simcik)

Okay ladies + gents ... this episode is a BIG ONE. Not only do we have one but TWO guests, Danielle and Whitney of Sakara Life. They've known each other since they were twelve in Arizona, and moved to the Big Apple for their dreams of modeling and working on Wall Street. But as time passed, their struggles grew along with their go-go-go kind of lifestyle. Things basically got CRAY ... fast. Everything started to add up, from going-out, getting acne, drinking, eating out all of the time, working 80 hours/week, and not taking the time to take care of themselves. And this is how their new new lifestyle started. They both had a lot of healing and needed to remind each other food is medicine. So from there they started being their own guinea pigs, and cooking their own meals and creating their own recipes. Eventually, they knew they were on to something, and they started delivering meals on their bikes around NYC to their clients. In terms of the food science aspects of living the Sakara Life, here are some vital topics we touched on: micro biome = bacteria living in your gut 95% of serotonin is made in the gut eating the right food helps that good bacteria thrive, and visa versa adding greens is KEY to every meal - smoothies, sandwiches, soups, etc. eat well and don't stress about it because studies show that stress/anxiety leads to aging faster science points to plants as the key to anti-aging eating a VARIETY of plants is important because it builds the different types of amino acids your body needs studies also show that your personality is more present when eating healthy It's all about living a life of clarity, freedom, health, and nourishment. We hope you learn more than you can imagine from this episode!

Here on Almost 30, we like to talk about spirituality, health, and wellness – and this fascinating conversation marries all three subjects in a way that we know you'll love. K+L chat with Mario Brainovic of Analemma, a cosmically inspired technology company that’s on a mission to infuse consciousness (back) into all of the world’s water. We’re welcoming in some new and inspiring ideas for this one, as we do a dive deep on the research, the science, and the significance of structured water. In short, the new information presented in this conversation will change how you see and interact with water forever. Don’t worry – it all makes perfect sense as soon as we get into it.  It’s a concept Mario has been developing for fifteen years, but one that’s still brand new on the scene in terms of awareness and understanding. We’re excited for you all to hear the studies that they've done with people, and with plants, that prove how structured water affects your light body, as well as your ability to grow, thrive and be vibrant. In addition to the technology, we talk a lot about the state of water today, access to structured water around the world, and what Mario sees as the future of water – and life as we know it.

Karena Dawn has been on the podcast before talking about fitness and entrepreneurship as the co-founder of Tone It Up. Today, she joins us to talk about her new book, The Big Silence, a memoir about mental illness and healing. The title comes from the idea that there is still such a stigma surrounding mental health and discussing it openly. In it, she goes deep into parts of her life that are so evocative and powerful, from dealing with drugs, being arrested, and managing a strained relationship with her schizophrenic mother. We talk about her story, how to support someone with mental health issues while still taking care of yourself, and how she’s integrated her husband into the mental health discussion. It’s so important for us to break this silence together, have meaningful conversations around mental health, and shut down the stigma once and for all. We also talk about: Karena’s background of dealing with mental illness in her family Recognizing the complexity of everyone’s lived experiences Finding clarity at the end Taking care of yourself while you help others Discovering where to set boundaries Turning your childhood struggles into something beautiful Teaching people how to work with others who have mental health conditions The goal of The Big Silence Sponsors:   Get discount codes sent directly to your phone.

THE INTERVIEW Did you know that we are spending more than EVER on supplements, but we aren’t statistically healthier? Many of us have been taking supplements for years without realizing all the additives that go into them, such as binders and fillers made from sheep's wool, corn, soy and other less desirable ingredients.We’re finding out that what we’re taking to improve our internal harmony may not be as helpful as we’ve been told. This conversation with Sara Cullen, the founder of GEM (get 20% off with code ALMOST30), brings to light some of the things that we should be considering when shopping for supplements, as well as the benefits of GEM: “anti-vitamin” alternative made with real food.. She also goes into the synergistic effects of food and how some foods work together to create greater bioavailability of nutrients, the importance of Vitamin D, why algae is the new trend in nutrition, and her story of starting a company with some great advice for any budding entrepreneurs. We also talk about: The early days of GEM and the inspiration behind it Finding out what’s in the vitamins and minerals you’re taking Reducing the amount of filler in our diets The regulation loopholes of the supplement industry Learning from the mistakes of your first company Using algae for nutrition The effectiveness of food synergy Advice for early stage entrepreneurs Find more to love at almost30.com!

He shares the health issues he struggled with, like Addison's disease, which led him into functional and naturopathic medicine. Our conversation then covers a whole host of wellness topics—from hormone imbalance, mind-body connection, anxiety and supplements, toxins in skincare and food, and Ayurvedic doshas. We ask about alcohol’s effect on the body, how it affects sleep, and if you’re going to drink, when’s the best time.

Sex carries so much currency in our internal and external landscapes. For many, sexuality is cloaked in shame, fear, or heady expectations that leave us feeling short-changed and disempowered. Fortunately, the tides are shifting with the help of pioneers like Dr. Kate Balestrieri, a sex therapist helping people integrate the physical and emotional components of sex, sexuality, and relationships.  True sexual embodiment is a journey, not a destination (the same can be said for orgasms). This conversation undresses all the topics you’ve probably been thinking about but were too scared to utter out loud. Krista, Lindsey, and Dr. Kate candidly untangle the narrative surrounding porn, patriarchy, and partnerships while boldly confronting the common intimacy challenges in modern relationships today.  We also talk about: How the nervous system affects pleasure  Navigating expectations around sex Exploring blocks in partnership Why couples therapy works The spectrum of sex positivity Patriarchy and internalized misogyny  Desire, fetish, and ethical porn Tips for elevating your sexual practice  Processing sexual trauma  Sponsors: Zocdoc | Search for local doctors who take your insurance.

Recent discussions in our Secret Facebook group inspired today’s episode.  So many of you have turned to the group for guidance and advice surrounding the pain of grief and loss.  How do we cope? Does it get easier? When our loved one’s pass, where do they go and how do they feel?

We have been big fans of Iliza Shlesinger for-ev-er.  Her ability to find humor to connect people around important topics, to stay relevant and inclusive, and to make audiences laugh show after show, is so inspiring.  Iliza has been a comedian for over a decade now, but since winning Season 6 of Last Comic Standing, she has truly been unstoppable and ever-evolving.  With four Netflix comedy specials, a co-star in her first movie out next year, her 5th special on the horizon, and material that is vulnerable, empowering, and hilarious, Iliza is making people laugh and think. .

K + L get into throwback mode and reflect on how they started their podcast. Six years ago they were two 20-something-year-olds in the vortex of their Saturn return recording on a closet floor. Today, they’re two 30-something-year-olds with an incredible Almost 30 community. So much has unfolded over the years, and it’s been one heck of an epic ride!  This episode was inspired by Almost 30’s six-part podcast masterclass for Bossbabe’s membership program, The Societé. In this intimate behind-the-mics look at Almost 30, K+ L share what they learned about the business of podcasting along the way, from navigating multiple jobs and work identities to starting a business partnership and marketing your brand to the world. We also talk about: How to blend business and friendship successfully  The best way to organically grow your podcast alongside your business  How to promote and market your podcast on social media  Time management and learning skills  Work identities and expressing your true self Resources: Join The Societé Masterclass by Almost 30: bossbabe.com/almost-30 Join Podcast Pro: almost30.com/podcast-pro Listen: Krista & Lindsey on The BossBabe Podcast Listen: BossBabe Founders, Natalie & Danielle on Almost 30 Join our community: almost30.com/membership facebook.com/Almost30podcast/groups Podcast disclaimer can be found by visiting: almost30.com/disclaimer.  Find more to love at almost30.com!

THE INTERVIEW Debra Silverman is on to give us a much-needed astrological update on what’s currently happening in the world. She shares what was written in the stars when the virus came and things started to shift, when it looks like we’re going to get out of it, what every sign needs to be doing during this time, what transitions in astrology we need to be aware of over the coming year, and what the new normal will look like on the other side of this. (Don’t worry too much. There’s opportunity there.) We close the episode out with a beautiful prayer, a mic-drop moment that we hope will help you open up to the power of prayer and meditation as you move forward through this crisis.

CATCH UP WITH K + L K & L returned to the place that taught them so much—New York City! With blistered feet, full hearts and fond memories, the gals reflect on the place that saw them through the sh*tstorms, and on their live show with Heather McMahan at Chelsea Music Hall. Stay tuned for the live recording to launch as an episode soon! THE INTERVIEW Today we are sitting down with travel writer and New York Times best selling author of To Shake the Sleeping Self, Jedidiah Jenkins! We had the privilege of spending time with Jedidiah at the Onsite Workshops Creatives’ Retreat. We’ve admired him from afar for so long, and in meeting this sweet being we were confirmed in our admiration for his authenticity, humor, thoughtfulness, and ability to truly see people and make them feel special by way of the deepest conversations.  In our conversation today, we start by discussing music, concerts and releasing energy such as anger. Jedidiah then begins sharing his story, and paints a picture of his journey in writing his book. From his experience with imposter syndrome to meeting one of his favorites, Cheryl Strayed, and how she came to write a blurb for his book—he has us laughing the whole time. Jedidiah talks about his relationship with his parents after coming out, and shares how he’s never felt shame around his sexuality, even after growing up in an Evangelical Christian household. He also shares how he’s cultivated deep friendships, and how he fosters those relationships and builds community. We have been long awaiting this conversation, and can’t wait to share it with you! We also talk about: Societies view of the body as carnal and animalistic A mixing board as a metaphor for human life Jedidiah’s deep dive into Christianity The repression of sexuality impacting other aspects of life The lack respectful disagreement in our society Gravity points for finding authentic friendships Jedidiah’s creative process Find more to love at almost30podcast.com!

In this solo episode, Krista opens her heart for a deeply personal and vulnerable conversation about how to know and when to let go. In a society obsessed with adding more into our lives via to-do lists, courses, books, posts, etc., we hardly ever stop to think about what we can release.  Krista has found that when she let go of relationships, careers, friendships and parts of herself that were no longer aligned, she experienced greater expansion, growth and ultimately, love. In order to create a life you love, you have to create space—and that’s what this episode is all about.  To put it simply, you cannot open the door to the future you seek while holding onto your past…and when love no longer helps us to be the person we want to be, it’s time to let go.  We also talk about: Why we over consume to protect ourselves Letting go of relationships and careers What is the Life Edit program How to create space to receive clarity  The pain of leaving people behind  Following your heart and soul  Consciously uncoupling  The importance of choosing again and again  Recognizing pain as a portal towards growth  Creating the future you seek Seeing forgiveness as freedom  Empowering yourself to take action  Resources: Instagram: @itskrista The Life Edit program  Sponsors: Seed | Visit seed.com/ALMOST30 and use code ALMOST30 to redeem 20% off your first month of Seed's DS-01® Daily Synbiotic.  IQ Bar | Get 20% off all IQBAR products.

Today we are sitting down with author, mother, and one of our favorite humans, Peta Kelly. Let us give you a few reasons why we love this woman so much: 1) Peta holds family as one of her greatest values 2) She is funny as hell 3) She walks the talk 4) She has taught us how to have hard conversations 4) She is constantly evolving without needing anything from anyone.  The list continues to grow—especially after today’s interview.   Since becoming a mom, she has really focused on the intimacy of motherhood, and shares the outside fears pushed on her during pregnancy, and the trust she maintained within herself. Peta explains what ancestral healing is and the work she does to help heal the painful experiences of her family’s past, like having open conversations with her husband.    While in her twenties, Peta focused on soul growth, while working hard as an entrepreneur to set herself up financially before moving into motherhood. We discuss how she’s evolved spiritually since then, since writing her book, Earth is Hiring, and how her self-care rituals, such as stepping off of social media and Cacao ceremonies, have changed since becoming a mom. We could talk to our girl all day, but we hope this conversation will fill you up for a while—self-expression, personal growth, and relationships—LET’S GO! We also talk about: Peta’s preparation & rituals for her home birth  Relationships with plant medicine Importance of trust in soul growth The masculine & feminine in relationships   Find more to love at almost30podcast.com!   Resources: Learn more: petakelly.com Instagram: @petajean_ Book: Earth is Hiring   Upcoming Events: July 27th: San Francisco with Lacy Phillips August 17th: The Workshop by PodcastPro in Los Angeles with K + L September 17th: Chicago with Millana Snow   Sponsors: Amour Vert | Use code ALMOST30 for 15% off at www.shopgreenlove.com/almost30 Blender Bombs | Use code ALMOST30 for 20% off first order and free shipping for orders over $60 Osea | Use code ALMOST30 for a free travel size of choice ($18 value) with purchase of $40 or more at oseamalibu.com/almost30podcast Four Sigmatic | Use code ALMOST30 for 15% off your order at foursigmatic.com/almost30 Almost 30 is edited by Crate Media This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy Podsights - https://podsights.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

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. We also talk about: Her first supernormal experience as a child Studying quantum physics at six  Becoming an accountant!

For Olivia Amitrano, herbalism is everything. In college, a concoction of Chinese medical herbs would heal her crippling skin and gut issues, and, at 28 years old, a profound psilocybin journey lifted the veil on her shadow and transformed her life outlook. Now her sights are set on the powerful properties and rituals of tea. Did we mention, she's the founder of modern herbal medicine brand Organic Olivia? Olivia is creating space in her life, whether that's taking three weeks to go offline and learning new ways to hold a safe container for friendship or simply going for a long walk.  In this episode, she divulges how her self-awareness journey is shaping her relationships and how her passion for herbalism was planted, and why it just keeps on growing.   We also talk about: What that looks and feels like to go completely offline The transformational psilocybin journey that lifted the veil Navigating anxiety, hormonal and gut health Reframing exercise + the wonders of walking  How she found herbalism and future business plans Sponsors: Sugarbreak | Break free from sugar dependence with a natural, non-prescription support system.

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  Sponsors: Get discount codes sent directly to your phone.

Anger, disappointment, betrayal. These are the textbook reactions to your partner when they show no interest in your self-awakening.

THE INTERVIEW We are so glad to have author, filmmaker, health and science journalist Max Lugavere back on the show! Max’s new book, The Genius Life, is all about providing actionable research that anyone can use to start feeling stronger, happier, and healthier immediately. The truth is that most of us already know that there are things in our lives that we really shouldn’t put in, on, or around our bodies, but there’s such a disconnect between what we know and what we do. We dig into why this disconnect exists, break down what it means to live a genius life, argue the merits of plant-based diets, and learn the heart-wrenching story behind why Max became so invested in the relationship between our food and our cognition. We also talk about: How unhealthy foods often make the most outlandish health claims The plant-based trend The massive problem with food waste Why everyone should prioritize protein What to look for when you are consuming animal protein Integrating rest into your life + optimizing your sleep White fat vs brown fat The effects of melatonin on the body Toxins, plastics, + endocrine disruption Find more to love at almost30podcast.com!

YOU GUYS, Steve, our angel baby sound technician, is our special guest this week (and his RAD tunes close out the episode).  How the heck do you make new friends as an adult?  It's awkward AF sometimes, no?  You might have "enough" friends, or you might be in a new city and want to make some new ones, or you might be meeting the same type of people over and over.  Wherever you find yourself on this spectrum, this episode will inspire you to get out there.  The trio compiles a list that you can look to the next time you're bored, lonely, sick of the same old group, alone at the bar.  How about shaking up your routine and following your bliss, mimicking children and not giving a f*ck?  Plus, Steve shares his beautifully weird way of attracting new friends, Krista recounts her session with a hypnotherapist that helped her understand the role her energy plays in attracting new people into her life, and Lindsey shares her experience meeting friends on the DM (hehe).   This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy Podsights - https://podsights.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

Do you ever feel like there are a few different versions of yourself that come out during certain situations? In some recent therapy work, Krista has learned that… well, maybe there are.  In this episode, she takes Almost 30 nation into her personal therapy journey, unpacking her self-leadership work using the Internal Family System (IFS) method to identify, observe, respect, and understand the distinct parts of her being that protect and project less-than-ideal behavior, especially as it relates to her body acceptance. We meet the Manager, the Firefighter, and the Exile. But, no parts of us are bad. This is an important caveat to remember. Meeting and understanding these different forces within us is what helps us observe our lives and environments for ways we may encourage, or discourage, their appearances in place of Self, our highest and most pure form. This one goes deep, and invites us to look within ourselves for a different perspective, or two, on who we are, and why. Enjoy. We also talk about: Check ins on projects and processing long creative gestation periods Krista shares her body acceptance journey Introducing Internal Family Systems (IFS) method The manager, keeping you busy, productive, and distracted  The firefighter, doing whatever it takes to bring you to equilibrium Exiles, forgotten and missing parts of your past and present Understanding and acknowledging their roles  Feeling their love and working in unison with Self Resources:  Use keywords, titles, proper nouns, etc., to describe each third-party resource Learn more about Internal Family Systems (IFS) Join our community: almost30.com/membership facebook.com/Almost30podcast/groups Podcast disclaimer can be found by visiting: almost30.com/disclaimer.  Find more to love at almost30.com!

Body image is something women are acutely aware of from a young age, and a topic we don’t shy away from on Almost 30. Everyone - no matter what they look like - has a complicated relationship with their body, and it’s important not to judge or assume things based on how someone looks. In today’s conversation, K+L got together with close friends and influencers Shayla Quinn + Britney Vest for a roundtable reality session to shine a light on the internal dialogue we all have around weight and body image. Although our stories are different, we all still experience hardships and shame around our bodies. It takes years of reprogramming and conscious effort to change the narratives we’ve grown up with about our bodies, but it is possible to get to a place of love and acceptance. . Shayla and Britney talk about when they first started noticing their bodies, how well-meaning people can warp our self-perspective, and how we can learn to move on from the need for validation. We’re so grateful that they’re willing to vulnerably share their experience with all of us, remind us that we’re not alone, and that truly loving and accepting ourselves is the most powerful and healing thing we can do.  We also talk about: Where our body image issues come from How diet culture benefits from our insecurities Changing your relationship with weight loss Healing the need for validation The lessons we pick up from our parents The power of showing up Find more to love at almost30.com!

The holidays are OVER. And of course, we need to talk about them. So, this week, Krista and Lindsey discuss the outcomes of their holiday ventures. We’re talking the good, the bad, and the ugly: everything from family, revisiting bad habits, spending Christmas alone, and creating new traditions as a result.    Did anyone take a cool vaca? Do something by yourself and actually enjoy your own company? Or did y’all visit the old fam' bam and get asked ALL the questions about life and work and relationships? It's okay, we did too.   Krista and Lindsey also bring in a STELLAR caller, Nicole from Boston, who get's real and to the point right away (she get's it). During the call, we get deep and down-to-earth about 2016 was a year of change, but 2017 is the year you make shit happen doing you & not worrying about what other people think surviving & getting out of the "in-between" our SOULCYCLE JOURNEYS! #tapitback #findyoursoulbaby plus and minuses of moving across the country going with your gut & letting your instincts pull you where they will   This week, the girls will help you honor the changes in your life so you can continue to do what you love and love what you do.  This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy Podsights - https://podsights.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

Put on your robe, whisk some matcha tea and get your notebook ready.  Kelly LeVeque of Be Well By Kelly, Celeb Holistic Nutritionist, author, and overall bad-ass entrepreneur joins the girls this week for an in-depth discussion about all things nutrition.  Jessica Alba and Chelsea Handler swear by Kelly's approach to health and nutrition.  If you want to feel empowered when planning and eating your meals, this episode is for YOU.  Her tips and insight are fad-free and easy to incorporate into your busy lifestyle.  Kelly's goal is to have you feeling confident in the way that you eat.  Oh and she shares with us some of her favorite (and famous) Be Well Smoothie recipes.  HELLO EASY BREAKFAST.   Kelly teaches us how to turn off the hunger hormones in our body with a fun, simple requirement for every meal that she likes to call "The Fab Four".  Wait, hold up, we have hunger hormones that can be TURNED OFF?!  Literally, the girls have been Fab Four-ing it since they recorded and have both felt the shift in their cravings and energy.  Krista and Lindsey are also curious about juicing.  What's the deal?  Why do people want to run over squirrels and tend to snap at their colleagues while juicing?  Spoiler alert:  Kelly hates juice cleanses.  She tells you why.     The girls dial it back and find out what lead Kelly to build her successful wellness brand.  How long was she moonlighting her business while working in cancer and genetics before she took the leap to focus on Be Well by Kelly full time?  Where did she find inspiration and support?  Why she is obsessed with education...and so much more.  To be honest, you may want to listen to this one a few times through to fully digest this yummy interview.  Bad joke, amazing episode.  LOVE YA.  P.S.

If you’ve experienced sexual assault or some form of trauma, may today’s guest inspire you with her powerful story of resilience and hope. Brittany Piper is a sexual assault survivor who has taken her pain and turned it into purpose. She is a motivational speaker, sexual violence prevention expert, and healing coach who helps others transform their pain and believe in second chances.   Our conversation begins with Brittany recounting her story (this may be triggering for some). This leads into how sexual assault has been normalized by the sensationalization of it, and the sheer lack of sex education in the United States. Brittany explains the science behind why trauma survivors have lapses in memory, and physical ways trauma manifests in the body. She details her experience with learning to love herself again after being so disconnected, and shares thoughtful, grounding questions you can use to help heal your own trauma. We know you’ll be touched by her story, and the work she now does to make a difference in trauma survivors’ lives.   We also talk about: Sex education in the U.S. & abroad Media attention focused on attractiveness The role race plays in sentencing Tonic immobility & disassociation Brittany’s modes of healing Reintegration as a foundation of healing The healing curriculum Brittany is building for women Putting resources into those who are incarcerated Brittany’s female healing retreats   Find more to love at almost30podcast.com!   Resources: Learn more: brittanypiper.com ; onthemendretreat.com Instagram: @thebrittpiper Books: The Body Remembers ; The Gifts of Imperfection   Upcoming Events: September 18th: Nashville with Julie Solomon September 19th: Nashville with Dr. Josh Axe October 3rd: NYC with Nikki Glaser October 4th: NYC with Erin Claire Jones October 9th: NYC with Stewart Pearce   Sponsors: Chosen Foods | Use code ALMOST30 for 50% off at chosenfoods.com/almost30 Dr. Roebucks | Visit drroebucks.com and use code ALMOST30 for 20% off Better Help | Visit betterhelp.com/almost30 for 10% off your first month.

We are so grateful for today’s episode and today’s guest, sharing her story and providing an inside look at what it’s like to be a social worker in the foster care system today. On a previous episode, we had mentioned how we’d like to be educated more on the foster care system, and an incredible member of #almost30nation reached out to share her story. This conversation today is emotional, insightful, and is sure to offer you a clearer picture of the field of social work and the world foster kids live in today. Words from our guest: I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) working and residing in Los Angeles County. I work with children, teenagers, and families with severe histories of trauma and mental illness. The children and families I work with are a part of the LA County foster care system. I support my clients by helping them process their trauma, empowering them to reach their full potential, advocating for their needs, navigating the foster care system, and guiding them through the roller coaster journey they are on. I have never met more resilient people than my clients, and they inspire me to do this challenging work and be the best version of myself day in and day out. I am originally from the Bay Area and moved to the East Coast to complete my Master of Social Work (MSW) program at New York University. About 5 years ago, I moved to Los Angeles and began working within the LA County Department of Mental Health and Department of Children and Family Services. I was working with a 13 yr old female client who was very suicidal. I was going to her home 3-4 times weekly for therapy sessions to ensure she was safe, had someone to talk to, and could work through her suicidal thoughts. As our time was coming to an end, we wrote each other letters as part of our termination and goodbye process. In her letter to me she wrote, "thank you for letting me realize that life is worth living" THIS is the reason I do what I do. Helping one person might not change the whole world, but it can change the world for one person. Honestly, that is what motivates me day in and day in. That is what I find so rewarding about my job. I know I am not going to “save” all my clients. I know some will fall through the cracks. But I also know that if I can make an impact on just one child, that I am helping change the world for that one person. Statistics (from CASA organization): Foster youth in LA is 30,000 33% of California’s foster youth currently reside in LA County 73% of foster youth have spent two or more years in the system 38% of youth have had five or more foster care placements Less than 50% of foster youth graduate from high school and only 3% graduate from college 33% of girls in foster care become pregnant at least once by age 17 25% of youth aging out of foster care will be incarcerated within two years At age 19, 60% of former foster youth are unemployed 27% of the homeless population spent time in foster care Only 3% graduate from college Half of all young adults who age out of foster care end up homeless or incarcerated. 75% of young women in foster care report at least one pregnancy by age 21 Watch: How The Brain Can Change ; Christian the Lion Short Term 12 Nadine Burke on Trauma CASA The Almost 30 Podcast is edited by Podcast Masters Learn more about your ad choices.

THE INTERVIEW Today we are so excited to sit down with our good friend Kelly LeVeque, holistic nutritionist extraordinaire, to chat about her new book Body Love Every Day. A lot of the health and wellness books out there can be off putting, with an emphasis on aesthetics or diet, but Kelly’s message is about creating a holistic lifestyle approach. We dive into the four different archetypes mentioned in her book and how understanding our archetype can prepare us for success with our health and wellness goals. Kelly opens up about her birth story and all the challenges she and her family had to overcome through her pregnancy and delivery. We wrap things up with some #inspo for the boss babes out there who have to make hard decisions around running a business — and, of course, we had to ask her some of your questions!

Do kegels actually work? Is painful sex normal? How can breathing help alleviate pelvic tension and pain? In this episode, we go there and answer all of your burning questions with Dr. Sonia Bahlani, who is an expert in the fields of gynecology and urology―sought purposefully because she was interested in helping patients with pelvic pain.  In her efforts to bring the topics of pelvic pain and women’s sexual health out from behind closed doors and find real, proven solutions for those in pain, Dr. Bahlani joins Lindsey to discuss the key to feeling good “down there,” starting with what exactly is your pelvic floor. She provides valuable insight on what might be causing your pain, what you can expect in a doctor’s office and what to do at home. So much of women’s sexual health remains unexplored, leaving us to wonder and question if specific experiences are normal…but no more. We’re deeply grateful to welcome Dr. Bahlani to the show to unpack the many misconceptions about this important topic.  We also talk about: What is your pelvic floor How to connect with your pelvic floor The relationship between your jaw + pelvic floor Pain during sex: Why it’s happening + what to do  The importance of pleasurable sex + foreplay Women’s healthcare in the U.S. Everyday habits to support your pelvic floor Understanding your urination habits The truth about kegels  Side effects of birth control Resources:  Instagram: @pelvicpaindoc TikTok: @pelvicpaindoc Website: pelvicpaindoc.com Book: Dr. Sonia's Guide to Navigating Pelvic Pain Sponsors: Hatch | Hatch is offering $20 off your purchase of a Hatch Restore 2 and free shipping at hatch.co/almost30.  AG1 | Go to drinkAG1.com/ALMOST30 and get a FREE 1-year supply of vitamin D + 5 free AG1 travel packs with your first purchase.

During Alyson Charles' brutal yet beautiful spiritual awakening, animals were a daily medicine that coaxed repressed traumas to the surface. Through the initiation, she rebirthed as "RockStar Shaman" with a mission to collaborate directly with the wisdoms of Mother Earth and Great Spirit/Source, and bridge the gap between animals and humans.  Her spiritual allegiance to the animal world comes full circle with her new book, Animal Power, which decodes the spiritual significance of 100 species along with transformative practices to deepen your relationship with the power animal wanting to support you at this time. In this episode, Alyson reveals the emotionally-charged backstory to birthing her living, breathing medicine book, the responsibility of owning her role as a shaman, and how lessons from surrender and celibacy led her to find sacred union with Luke Storey.  We also talk about: Exploring the death portal  The potency of illustrations in Animal Power  The meaning behind The Eagle Condor Prophecy  How to connect to your power animal The responsibility that comes with spiritual gifts Advice on surviving a spiritual awakening  The inner work to finding an aligned relationship Sponsors: Beekeeper’s Naturals | Go to beekeepersnaturals.com/almost30 or use code “ALMOST30” for 25% off your first order.
