855. Relationship Advice with K+L: Feel Secure, Stop Overthinking + Choose Better

Author: Krista Williams & Lindsey Simcik March 24, 2026 Duration: 54:46
In this solo episode, Krista + Lindsey get real about what it actually looks like to navigate relationships in your 30s, without losing yourself in the process.  From early dating anxiety to feeling “too attached,” they unpack the difference between intuition + fear, and why being honest might be your biggest dating advantage. They also dive into what it really means to communicate in modern relationships—and why clarity is actually magnetic. Plus, they get into the messy middle of healing—like feeling anger toward your parents, outgrowing friendships, and rebuilding intimacy after big life changes. Get ready to feel more secure, expressed, and aligned in every area of your life. We also talk about: Why getting “attached” in dating isn’t actually a bad thing The power of saying how you feel early in relationships How to stop future-tripping + come back to the present moment Navigating anger + resentment during therapy + healing Reparenting yourself + building emotional independence The truth about going “no contact” with family Why friendships aren’t always convenient—and what that means How to evolve relationships without guilt or forcing alignment Rebuilding intimacy + connection after becoming a parent Why scheduling time for your relationship is essential, not optional Resources: Instagram: @lindseysimcik Instagram: @itskrista Website: https://itskrista.com/ Order our book, Almost 30: A Definitive Guide To A Life You Love For The Next Decade and Beyond, here: https://bit.ly/Almost30Book.  Sponsors: Chime | It just takes a few minutes to sign up.
