Ep. 60 - Finding Your Identity + Peace Through Life's Darkest Times with Meditation Guru, Biet Simkin

In this episode of Almost 30, Lindsey and Krista interview each other.  You'd think they know everything about one another, but the coolest part of friendship is finding out new sh*t about the other person every time you are together.  You know!?  The girls dig deep and get curious.  Lindsey explains how attending an all-girls, private, Catholic school shaped who she is today, Krista gives us her vision of where she will be in ten years, and SO much more.  It's still the beginning here at Almost 30, so the girls thought it was important you get to know them a little better.

The girls could be driving a Nissan Sentra (uh, one of them does) or a G-wagon, but if there is a sun roof, they feel like BALLERS no matter what.  Ya feel that?  It's the little things...and a few profound things in this weeks "Hundred, NOT Hundred".  It is always a treat, when they can share "Sh*t that Stuck".  Their revelations this week brought up that presence is your power and self awareness can be paralyzing at times, but such a gift if nurtured.  A question from a listener stirs a discussion about separating from an ex's family after a break-up.  How do you do it?  Do you keep in touch?  Is it right? Is it dead wrong?  Why do we want to keep in touch?  All of this and MUCH MORE in this weeks episode of "Almost 30!"

Too often we walk away from a break-up or a passionate fling feeling angry, frustrated, hopeless, lead-on, or just plain PISSED.

In this minisode, Krista and Lindsey give us advice on how to learn from and then move on from those that we loved or lusted after. It's not easy, but it's worth the shift.   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.

Whether you're a guy or a girl, you've felt it.  THE PRESSURE.  Some girls equate happiness with marriage and kids.  At a certain age the thirst is REAL and pretty overwhelming for both parties involved.  Krista and Lindsey connect with a male listener, who wonders why that is and what makes other girls refuse to settle down.  His insight is ON POINT, and together, the three get personal and get to the bottom of the issue.     BUT FIRST, the girls share their weekly "Hundred, NOT Hundred's" and "20's Us, 30's Us".  Have you ever asked for a beautiful tech-nerd baby angel from heaven...and gotten one? Or, have you sent nudes to your boyfriend and not received a reply?  Anyone cake their face with make-up in their 20's? Or do you wonder whether you and your partner will agree on what to feed your kids?  There is a RANGE this week...WOW.  ALMOST 30 IS HAVING RANGE, OKAY?!  Listen on, friends!

In Episode 5 of Almost 30, Lindsey and Krista begin by celebrating no longer stuffing their bra's and recounting a meet-up with a high school crush 12 years later. They highly suggest the latter. In one of their favorite segments, "20's Us, 30's Us", the girls lay it all out there--from chronic car accidents to over-giving, to their slowing metabolism to wanting to know more about their finances. Knowledge is power, right?! Their question of the week comes from "Courtney", As Courtney approaches 30, she finds herself getting in deep when it comes to relationships--moving in together,  purchasing pets, and cooking for one another. Sounds successfully adult. But what happens when it doesn't work out? Could be an UGLY mess.

In one of their favorite segments, the girls share what stuck with them this week. Ya know those people who urk you?  Those energy vampires? Yeah, they are there to TEACH YOU A LESSON.  BA-LIEVE DAT.  And they discover how getting quiet could be the key to receiving the loudest messages. The question of the week comes from our listener "Lauren" who is dealing with a "friend with benefits" who is acting like a gosh darn BOYFRIEND. POOR THANG, right? Well, he doesn't want to be her boyfriend. SAY WHAT? We're confused. So is she.  We discuss.

The best interviews should make you cry happy tears, right? Our first interview to share with you, is with the amazing, lovely and talented Jen Glantz. A lady who made her name by posting an ad on Craigslist to be a professional bridesmaid. Yes, you heard it right. A sneak into her story: "I DID WHAT ANY POETRY MAJOR WOULD PROBABLY DO WHEN THEY WANT TO START A BUSINESS, I TURNED TO CRAIGSLIST. I WROTE AN AD OFFERING MY SERVICES TO STRANGERS AS THEIR BRIDESMAID FOR HIRE, SHUT DOWN MY COMPUTER SCREEN, DIDN'T TELL ANYONE ABOUT THIS, AND WENT TO SLEEP. TWO DAYS LATER, THE AD WENT VIRAL, MY INBOX WAS FILLED WITH EMAILS FROM BRIDES-TO-BE, AND MY HEART WAS BEATING TOWARD A GIGANTIC OPPORTUNITY I CREATED ALMOST BY PURE ACCIDENT." IN THIS EPISODE WE TALK WEDDINGS, DATING, STARTING A BUSINESS AND LIVING YOUR BEST LIFE. Listen and let us know your thoughts! We'd love to hear what you think about some of the truth bombs that Jen drops on us during this one.
