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.
