869. Q+A with Krista: Body Image, Dating + Finding Your Purpose

Author: Krista Williams & Lindsey Simcik | Wellness & Personal Growth Hosts May 12, 2026 Duration: 1:00:06
What if the way you see your body, your relationships, and your purpose… isn’t actually yours? In this raw solo Q&A, Krista opens up about the beliefs, patterns, and emotional habits quietly shaping your life—and how to finally break free from them. From food anxiety + body image to dating, friendship breakups, and stepping into your next identity, this episode feels like a late-night conversation with your most honest, no-BS friend. Krista dives into the real reasons we stay stuck—and the mindset shifts that change everything. If you’re navigating your late 20s or 30s and craving clarity, confidence, and deeper alignment, this is your reset. Expect truth bombs, spiritual insight, and the kind of perspective that makes you pause, reflect, and rethink the life you’re building. We also talk about: Why your beliefs about your body shape your reality The concept of “psychic protection” on social media and energetic boundaries What it really means to find your purpose (with or without corporate life) How to embody “queen energy” vs. people-pleasing “maiden energy” Why modern dating is broken—and the truth about cheating and male insecurity How to handle criticism, feedback, and stepping into a new identity Healing the female friendship wound and navigating friendship breakups Why your life always upgrades after releasing misaligned relationships Resources: 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: Ritual | Don’t settle for less than evidence-based support.
