I’m joined by Krista Williams, co-host of the wildly successful Almost 30 podcast and co-author of the brand-new book Almost 30: A Definitive Guide to a Life You Love for the Next Decade and Beyond. Krista and her co-host Lindsey Simcik created the guide they wished they had during the confusing, transformative transition from their late 20s into their 30s—a time full of cosmic shake-ups, friendship shifts, body image reckoning, and purpose redefinition.

This conversation goes deep into the heart of that transition. Krista opens up about how her relationship with her body has evolved after years of being steeped in diet culture and how turning 30 brought her a completely new lens on friendship, self-worth, and intuitive living.

We talk about what it means to truly feel safe in your body, how to let go of relationships with compassion, and why growing older can be a deeply spiritual initiation—if you let it be.

We explore:

• The emotional shifts that come with turning 30

• Letting go of friendships that no longer align—and the grief that comes with it

• How to attract relationships that reflect your growth

• Healing from diet culture and embracing a softer, intuitive approach to wellness

• Rebuilding a sense of safety in your body after years of disconnection

• Self-worth, control, and learning to trust your body again

• Creating identity outside of old stories, labels, or roles

• Why the Saturn Return is more than an astrology trend—it’s a spiritual doorway

Whether you're navigating a friendship breakup, trying to heal your relationship with food, or simply wondering who you're becoming—this episode will meet you exactly where you are.
