    888. Stop chasing money and become someone who can hold it

    What if everything you've been taught about money is wrong? In this conversation with high-level wealth strategist Elizabeth Ralph, we're exploring why wealth might be less about working harder and more about the energy, beliefs, and patterns shaping your relationship with abundance. We explore the fears, beliefs, and patterns that keep us stuck in scarcity, why money isn't linear, and what it means to create wealth from a place of trust instead of control. If you've ever avoided looking at your bank account, wondered why money feels so emotionally charged, or felt like you're constantly trying to "figure it all out," this episode is for you. Get ready to rethink abundance + open yourself to a completely new way of relating to wealth. We also talk about: Why conscious women need to participate in wealth The connection between self-worth + net worth The hidden beliefs keeping you stuck in scarcity The energetics of abundance + effortless wealth Why personal development can become another form of ego The difference between control + trust in manifestation How social media impacts our relationship with money The real meaning of legacy + legacy wealth How to create abundance by becoming, not by doing Resources: Get one free month of SI Club at: https://myrootabl.com/r/ezmSidp0?rootabl=almost30podcast Website: https://www.thespiritualinvestor.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elizabethralph/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Elizabeth_Ralph Sponsors: The Absorption Company | Start taking supplements your body can actually absorb.

    887. We were so cringe in our old episodes (Here to give you permission to be cringe, too!)

    OMG, we're taking a trip back to the very beginning of Almost 30 to listen to our early episodes, and honestly...we can't believe we're here today. Listening back had us laughing, cringing, and getting emotional over the dreams we had, the women we were, and the people we thought we'd become. Some things changed completely, and some of the things we wanted most somehow found us in ways we never could've planned. This is a deeply personal episode, and if you've ever looked back at an old version of yourself and thought, "Wow, she had no idea what was coming," let this be your reminder that every version of you is worthy. Get ready to laugh ‘til your abs hurt ladies—we're heading down memory lane! We also talk about: Our first impressions of each other + the women we were 10 years ago The dreams we had for our future selves + the manifestations that came true How our voices, identities, and priorities have evolved over the years Why giving yourself permission to cringe is actually a sign of growth The dating stories + deal-breaker questions that had us crying laughing The friendship that became the foundation of Almost 30 Trusting your intuition + following what feels like a full-body yes Why every season of reinvention is preparing you for what's next Looking back at old versions of yourself with compassion instead of judgment The beauty of realizing your life unfolded even better than you planned Resources: Instagram: @lindseysimcik Instagram: @itskrista Sponsors: BetterHelp | This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp.

    886. Mark Manson on why personal growth can backfire

    What if the personal growth you've been chasing isn't about becoming someone new—but finally accepting who you already are? Krista sits down with bestselling author Mark Manson to explore self-awareness, mindset shifts, and why letting go of the need to constantly fix yourself can lead to greater emotional well-being, purpose, and authenticity. Mark shares why the pursuit of self-improvement can sometimes keep us trapped in a cycle of never feeling like we’re enough. Together, Krista and Mark explore ambition, identity, perfectionism, and what happens when we stop fighting ourselves and start embracing who we truly are. From redefining success after burnout to letting go of the pressure to constantly evolve, Mark shares the lessons that transformed his life and shaped his work. If you're ready to stop chasing the next version of yourself and start living with more peace, confidence, and self-acceptance, this conversation is for you. We also talk about: Why accepting yourself is the key to lasting transformation The hidden downside of success + building a public platform How burnout forced Mark to redefine ambition + productivity The surprising story behind the iconic Disappointment Panda Why every new level of success comes with a new set of problems How childhood identities shape the way we navigate adulthood The fear of changing when relationships depend on the old version of you Why people lie to themselves—and how denial keeps us stuck Mark's journey from self-help obsession to self-acceptance Philosophies that shaped Mark's work, including Buddhism, existentialism, and Carl Rogers Resources: Instagram: @markmanson LinkedIn: @markmanson Twitter: @markmanson YouTube: @IAmMarkManson Sponsors: Hero Bread | Hero Bread is offering 10% off your order.

    883. Why your purpose is asking you to let go (not push harder) with Blu + Lily Ashwell

    What if purpose isn't about doing more—but about letting go of everything that isn't meant for you? Blu of Earth + Lily Ashwell join Krista to explore how slowing down, trusting your intuition, and releasing external validation can help you reconnect with the work that truly aligns with your purpose.

    882. The beauty and shadow of self-awareness

    Hi my loves, Lindsey here. I've spent years in therapy, pursuing healing + self-discovery, but no one prepared me for this part—the loneliness that can sometimes come with becoming deeply self-aware. In this solo episode, I'm exploring the beauty + burden of self-awareness—and why personal growth can sometimes feel surprisingly lonely. We'll talk about relationships, healing, and navigating life when it feels like you're growing in a different direction than the people around you. If you've ever felt frustrated, disconnected, or wondered why doing "the work" hasn't necessarily made relationships easier, this conversation is for you. Join me to talk about embodiment, maturity, and how to stay open-hearted without overanalyzing every part of your life. 💛 We also talk about: The difference between self-awareness + true embodiment How therapy changed the way I see relationships The unexpected loneliness I've experienced throughout my healing journey The difference between knowing your wounds + actually healing them Why I sometimes miss the version of me who wasn't analyzing everything The trap of overthinking your relationships in the name of self-development How motherhood has deepened my understanding of emotional regulation Resources: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lindseysimcik/ Substack: https://momplex.substack.com Sponsors: Naturium | Give your skin the affordable, luxurious glow up it deserves.

Lucy, founder of LYMA, joins Krista to explore the mindset shifts behind reinventing yourself, trusting your timeline, and embracing personal transformation at any stage of life.

    874. Turn “Someday” Dreams Into Today’s Reality: Your Personal Transformation Starts Here

    What if the life you keep waiting for doesn’t require a new version of you—but a deeper connection to the one you already are? In this conversation on personal transformation, author + self-healing expert Yasmine Cheyenne joins Lindsey to explore burnout, self-betrayal, and what it takes to stop postponing your dreams + start creating a life that feels aligned. Yasmine shares the emotional healing journey behind her “comeback era,” opening up about the moments when success, achievement, and doing everything “right” still left her feeling disconnected from herself. Together, Lindsey + Yasmine explore how perfectionism, comparison, and people-pleasing can pull us away from our truth—and how rebuilding self-worth starts with choosing yourself. This conversation is a reminder that personal growth isn’t always about becoming someone new—it’s about returning to yourself, trusting your desires, and taking intentional steps toward the life you’ve been dreaming about. We also talk about: Reconnecting with your younger self Why success can still feel unfulfilling Comparison, perfectionism + self-betrayal The fear of starting over later in life Building self-trust through small daily steps Boundaries, honesty + hard conversations Grieving old versions of yourself Redefining success on your own terms Giving yourself permission to choose yourself Resources: http://yasminecheyenne.com http://instagram.com/yasminecheyenne https://www.harpercollins.com/products/the-comeback-era-yasmine-cheyenne?variant=44065298153506 https://yasminecheyenne.substack.com/ Order our book, Almost 30: A Definitive Guide To A Life You Love For The Next Decade and Beyond, here: https://bit.ly/Almost30Book.
