Darin Olien, New York Times bestselling author and co-host with Zac Efron of the hit Netflix series Down to Earth, offers the Almost 30 community invaluable advice on addressing the health of our bodies (and planet!).  In this episode, Darin discusses his new book, Fatal Conveniences, which offers a fresh perspective and achievable, small tweaks that will lead to big, life-enhancing changes. He shares common products (such as cosmetics + sunscreen) and behaviors that are harmful, and provides alternatives that are non-toxic and life-enhancing. Despite such a heavy topic, Darin provides us with HOPE…for the health and wellbeing of the collective, and for our beloved Earth!  We also talk about: What are carcinogens + PFAs Darin’s personal story Toxic products in daily life Fast fashion + the beauty industry The harmful effects of fluoride + sunscreen Easy, healthy changes you can make today Co-hosting “Down to Earth” with Zac Efron Resources:  Book: Fatal Conveniences  IG: @darinolien FB: @DarinOlienOfficial Twitter: @darinolien Website: Darinolien.com 121 Tribe Program Sponsors: DRAM | Visit dramapothecary.com and use code ALMOST30 for 20% off your entire order.

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.
