Almost 30

In this episode, Julie Piatt shares the hard-earned wisdom behind decades of love, transformation, and personal awakening. From surviving an abusive relationship in her twenties to building a 25-year partnership with Rich Roll, Julie reveals the “Jedi move” that changed everything for her. 

Ahead, Julie opens up about the karmic relationships that shaped her path, the lessons she learned about projection, responsibility, and spiritual sovereignty, and why many women lose themselves trying to fix or rescue their partners. 

We also dive into Julie’s current spiritual work, including her new teachings around creativity, sexuality, and spiritual embodiment. From mystical experiences to navigating AI, Julie offers a powerful reminder: true freedom comes from knowing yourself as a sovereign being.

We also talk about:

Why many women unintentionally lose themselves in relationships

The difference between human love (transactional) + divine love (unconditional)

How Julie’s decision to release Rich to his own life transformed their marriage

Why trying to “fix” your partner often keeps them stuck

The power of taking radical responsibility for your life + relationships

Navigating marriage with independence, freedom, and strong boundaries

Julie’s spiritual initiations + mystical experiences over the past year

How creativity, sexuality, and spirituality are deeply interconnected

Why maintaining energetic sovereignty is essential in a rapidly evolving world

In this solo episode, Krista explores why so many brilliant, empathetic women struggle to be fully seen + heard. From childhood conditioning to nervous system responses, she breaks down the hidden reasons you might still be playing small—even when you know you’re meant for more.

Krista shares her personal journey of building Almost 30 + how that triggered her own visibility wound. She explains how visibility wounds show up as people-pleasing, perfectionism, overthinking, or hiding your true voice—and why healing them is essential for living your purpose.

Through practical tools, nervous system practices, and mindset shifts, Krista shows how reclaiming your visibility can unlock deeper authenticity, creativity, and alignment with your soul’s mission.

We also talk about:

What visibility wounds are + how they form in childhood + relationships

Why empaths + highly sensitive people often struggle with being seen

The connection between people-pleasing, perfectionism, and visibility blocks

How bullying, comparison, and family dynamics shape your nervous system around attention

What if the clarity you’ve been searching for isn’t in your mindset—but in your heart? In this conversation with Kimberly Snyder, we explore heart coherence, emotional regulation, intuition, and why so many high-achieving women are stuck in the “propelled heart” phase of constant doing.

Kimberly shares the five stages of the heart + how stress, ambition, trauma, and ego keep us disconnected from our true power. We talk about nervous system rewiring, hormonal balance, and how dropping from the mind into the heart can change your relationships, health, and magnetism.

From manifesting her husband in six weeks to building a wellness empire while raising two kids, Kimberly reveals how living from the heart creates ease, intuition, and alignment. If you’re tired of forcing, hustling, or overthinking your next move—this episode will feel like a reset.

We also talk about:

The five heart stages: dark heart, propelled heart, steady heart, devoted heart, and clear heart

Heart coherence and its impact on cortisol, DHEA, hormones, and longevity

Why “manifestation culture” often keeps women in the mind instead of the heart

Healing grief + how tragedy can open your heart

Ego vs. authenticity in relationships

The difference between emotional reactivity + true heart connection

Nervous system regulation through heart-focused breathing

Intuition vs. overthinking

How partnership accelerates spiritual growth

Magnetism, energy fields, and how your heart affects others

Redefining success beyond hustle + achievement

Why ordinary moments can feel extraordinary when you’re embodied

AI isn’t just helping you write emails—it’s shaping beauty standards, influencing elections, replacing jobs, generating music, and possibly rewriting reality itself. In this unfiltered conversation, Lindsey + Krista explore the cultural, spiritual, and economic implications of artificial intelligence.

From AI influencers to blackmailing bots, autonomous coding, artificial womb technology, and the manifesto to replace human labor, this episode dives into the race toward AGI and what it means for humanity. Together, K+L explore whether AI is inevitable—or simply a narrative we’ve accepted.

This episode is all about discernment. It’s about staying human, protecting your creativity, strengthening your intuition, and deciding how you want to engage with technology in a world that feels increasingly synthetic. If you’ve felt fascinated, disturbed, or unsure about AI—this is for you. 

We also talk about:

AI-generated porn + its impact on relationships

The potential for emotional + relational attachment to AI technology

How AI could shape the future of content creation, writing, and artistic voice

Balancing AI for efficiency while protecting original thought + creativity

How younger generations may grow up with AI as a constant companion or support system

The economic tension between productivity gains + potential job displacement

Why discernment + emotional intelligence may become more valuable skills in the AI era
