Morning Microdose

Almost 30

The fact that you came across Morning Microdose is not a coincidence, it’s a synchronicity, we know it…and you’ll soon find out why. Welcome to an experience that will prime your mind, body and soul for a beautiful day ahead… all in less than ten minutes!

Our minds are so impressionable in the morning. Yet how often are we intentional about what we consume and do? Long ago our mornings kicked off with a dirty scroll on Instagram, followed by an energy drink and an intense HIIT workout, underscored by loud music and lots of yelling. Peace and clarity, UH NO! Morning Microdose was born from our commitment to sacred mornings.

There are so many choices when it comes to what we consume on a daily basis — from what we put in our mouths, take in with our eyes, touch with our hands, and listen to with our ears. We’re passionate about offering an audible journey for you to set the tone for your day and feel inspired by thought provoking conversations. We curated some of our favorite short, powerful excerpts from the Almost 30 Podcast, hosted by Krista Williams and Lindsey Simcik.

Our intention is for you to wake up with us, both literally and spiritually. Each episode is meant to help you step into the highest version of yourself. Our groovy guests often describe our conversations together as being in a vortex. It feels transcendental… time dissipates and we feel expansive in both our mind and heart.

We started Morning Microdose, so you too could “enter the vortex” five days a week, Monday-Friday.
