Almost 30

In this episode, Krista + Lindsey explore the idea of the invisible strings connecting our lives. They reflect on the relationships, places, and seemingly random moments that led them exactly where they are—and how much more meaningful life feels when you trust the connections you can’t always see.

They share their wildest invisible-string stories, from dating + marriage to SoulCycle, Almost 30, friendships, and even moments of loss. They explore why some people enter our lives for a lifetime while others arrive to teach us a lesson, shift our path, or help us become someone new.

Plus, they talk about creating more spaciousness in friendships, letting relationships ebb + flow without forcing them, and trusting the path when the dots don’t connect yet. This episode is a reminder that you may not understand where life is taking you—but you can trust that the pieces will make sense when you look back.

We also talk about:

The invisible string theory + the idea that nothing is truly random

How Krista + Lindsey’s own strings led them to each other

Soulmates, karmic relationships, and soul connections

Why some people are brought into our lives for lessons

The strange connections between dating, friendship, and career

How rejection can redirect you toward a more creative chapter

Letting friendships have more space without assuming the connection is gone

Trusting your intuition when the path ahead doesn’t make sense

Why you can’t always connect the dots until you look backward

In this episode, Krista pulls back the curtain on the spiritual practices + rituals that have genuinely supported her over 10+ years in spirituality. From angels + guides to prayer, intuition, manifestation, and energetic cleansing, she shares the practices that help her feel more supported + connected.

She gets into the importance of discernment—why you can work with healers without giving your power away, protect your subconscious from what you consume, and learn to trust what feels true for you. Plus, Krista shares how she uses manifestation through identity, energy, and surrender.

Most of all, this is permission to stop following someone else’s spiritual rulebook and create a practice that actually feels like you. Whether you consider yourself deeply spiritual or just a little woo-woo, this episode is full of ideas to explore, experiment with, and make your own.

We also talk about:

Connecting with angels + guides

How to ask for signs, synchronicities, and support

Spiritual discernment + keeping your own power

Choosing healers, teachers, and practices for your current season

Energetic hygiene + cleansing your space

Aura cleansing + releasing what isn’t yours

Lindsey is back with part two of her postpartum catch-up, getting honest about personal growth, relationships, and identity after becoming a mom of two. She shares what this season has taught her about asking for help, letting go of comparison, and giving herself permission to do motherhood her own way.

She opens up about marriage, couples therapy, communication, and the reality of doing the relationship work while raising two kids. She also talks about how her priorities have shifted, what she’s temporarily letting go of, and why she’s learning to trust the timing of her creativity + career.

Most of all, Lindsey reflects on the identity shift that comes with a major life transition—and why uncertainty doesn’t have to mean confusion. This is a reminder to give yourself grace, stay present, and trust that the next version of you is allowed to look different.

We also talk about:

Building a childcare + support system that actually works for you

Why you shouldn’t compare your motherhood to anyone else’s

Marriage, couples therapy, and staying connected through big life changes

Why communication gets harder when you’re overwhelmed

The identity shift that comes with becoming a mom of two

Letting go of perfection, productivity, and pressure

Putting creativity + career on the back burner without abandoning them

Trusting the ebb + flow of priorities, relationships, and self-care

Entering a new decade with more uncertainty, curiosity, and trust

Dr. Shefali, bestselling author + expert in conscious parenting, joins us for an honest conversation about raising emotionally resilient children in a world that is increasingly disconnected. She shares why parents must stop trying to perfect themselves—and start showing up fully as they are.

We talk about the hidden ways anxiety, achievement, social media, and performance-based parenting shape our kids, and why true connection starts with our own nervous system. Dr. Shefali explains how to raise children who trust themselves instead of chasing validation, success, or approval from the outside world.

She also gets real about the different ways boys + girls are being impacted by modern culture, from shame + disconnection to self-abandonment + the pressure to perform. This episode will challenge how you think about parenting + personal growth.

We also talk about:

Why parents can’t “out-perfect” their unconscious

How children borrow regulation + a sense of safety from us

The difference between connection + simply being happy together

Why performance-based parenting is no longer working

Social media, comparison, beauty standards + the “perception prison”

Raising boys with less shame around emotions, sexuality + masculinity

Why girls are learning to be perceived before they learn to be

Parentification, self-abandonment + emotional caretaking

How to help children develop inner authority + self-trust

Dr. Shefali’s new books, Raising Conscious Sons + Raising Conscious Daughters

Carissa Schumacher, renowned psychic medium + channel, joins us to talk about channeling Yeshua—and what happens when you stop abandoning your own essence. She shares her journey from suppressing her gifts to fully trusting her path.
