598. Drop Perfectionism + Be Yourself in Relationships

598. Drop Perfectionism + Be Yourself in Relationships

Author: Krista Williams & Lindsey Simcik May 4, 2023 Duration: 33:16
In this solo episode, Krista talks about how relationship (whether friendship, romantic or familial) breakups and endings can provide you with an opportunity to grow and be who you really are, as well as reclaim the parts of you that have been lost and step into more magnetism and truth.  Recently, she vulnerably shared about the ending of her 10-year partnership and in this episode, she dives into conscious uncoupling. Instead of trying to be perfect or make someone else be perfect, sometimes setting each other free is the greatest act of love. In the end, if it’s best for you, it’s best for them too.  While your decisions might not make sense to others, if you hear the call, it's important to listen, process and act on your truth.  We also talk about: Ending relationships  Stepping into truth + love  Respecting the process How to support your friends  Making hard decisions Letting go of people pleasing tendencies Being yourself in relationships How perfectionism is not love Liberating the other person + yourself  Resources: Instagram: @itskrista Related Program: The Sacredness of Being Single Related Episode: How to Know and When to Let Go Sponsors: CURED | Grab Zen and CBN in the Sleep Bundle for an extra 20% off of CURED’s already discounted price by visiting curednutrition.com/almost30 and using the coupon code “ALMOST30” at checkout.  IQ Bar | Get 20% off all IQBAR products.

Hosted by best friends Krista Williams and Lindsey Simcik, Almost 30 feels like a series of candid, late-night talks with people who genuinely get it. This podcast centers on the messy, transformative journey of navigating your late twenties and beyond, blending heart-centered conversations between the hosts with raw and impactful interviews. Their discussions naturally span modern spirituality, practical health and wellness, fitness, self-improvement, and the complexities of dating and relationships. What you’ll hear isn’t prescriptive advice but rather shared exploration-hilarious, vulnerable, and often surprising. The aim is to create a supportive audio space that challenges listeners to expand their view of what’s possible for their lives. Tuning into this podcast means joining a conversation that fuels a more conscious evolution, offering both laughter and tangible insights for personal growth. Krista and Lindsey build each episode with the intention to empower, making the often-isolating topics of alternative health and personal development feel accessible and deeply relatable.
