THE INTERVIEW Joseph and Lauren Sheehey are the co-owners of Cured Nutrition, a brand we are proud to say has been a partner of the podcast for years. But that’s not why they’re here today. We’re grateful that Joe and Lo decided to share vulnerably and truthfully the struggles they’ve faced in their relationship, and the ways in which they’ve been able to move forward regardless of the challenges.  We also get into how Lauren healed from her eating disorder. It’s a powerful illustration of how we can heal in relationships, in love, and use our shadows to reveal the deepest parts of ourselves and come together even better. We also talk about: Open relationships Having uncomfortable conversations with your partner Giving each other space Codependency within a relationship Being there for each other through their flaws and insecurities Healing relationships with our parents Feeling joy in being present The origin of Cured Nutrition Find more to love at almost30podcast.com!

THE INTERVIEW K + L are here, as always, to have real, honest conversations — ones that challenge us, make us uncomfortable, and help us grow. This conversation with Thaís Sky on white privilege and white fragility from 2018 is one of those.  These are important parts of who many of us are and what we experience that we need to look at in order to be better and do better. Our hope is that you are inspired to dismantle your attachment and support of systems that, for centuries, have contributed to blatant racism and inequality.  Enough is enough.  We ask that in listening, you have an open mind, are ready to learn, and are willing to explore how you can be a part of the change.  . We also talk about: Opportunities for growth Being addicted to our shitty thoughts + shitty people Trying not to compartmentalize our own spirituality Feeling unworthy of your own self-care: we can't show up for others if we’re not showing up for ourselves. The governmental + societal systems that keep certain groups of people oppressed How white women contribute to + benefit from racism How we can REALLY educate ourselves about systematic oppression + privilege When you have privilege, what is your place in the conversation? Living in an emotionally illiterate culture How to avoid tokenizing people of color What’s wrong when people say they’re “color blind” The importance of doing this work, even imperfectly (because perfect just isn’t going to happen) Deciding what kind of legacy we want to leave Find more to love at almost30podcast.com!   Resources: Learn more: thaissky.com Listen to Thaís’ podcast: RECLAIM Instagram: @IAmThaisSky Facebook: facebook.com/thaiscsky Twitter: @IAmThaisSky Almost 30 is edited by Crate Media This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy Chartable - https://chartable.com/privacy Podsights - https://podsights.com/privacy Learn more about your ad choices.

THE INTERVIEW Aaron Rose is the coach that K + L have been working with to help them uncover unconscious biases, be more intentional, and nurture inclusivity. There can be so much information, news, and things we’re seeing daily that can be very triggering right now. We hear that word a lot, trigger, and it’s important for us to unpack what that really means and how we can work against that. It’s okay to be triggered, but there’s something underneath that trigger that needs to be examined. How do we fix these deep-rooted issues that go so far back? Aaron teaches us his method of inner work for dealing with triggers. We also talk about: A nuanced understanding of manifestation Finding the root cause of your feelings and allowing yourself to feel them Not policing ourselves internally What triggers are and how to deal with them How we confirm our reality Steps to deal with a trigger   Find more to love at almost30podcast.com!

THE INTERVIEW This week we’re bringing back an interview we had with Rachel Cargle in December of 2018 because it is incredibly relevant to things that are happening in our world today. She has done an amazing job building a platform and resources for people, she raises money for marginalized communities, and she hosts The Great Unlearn on Patreon. We’ve talked about white fragility, white supremacy, allyship, and the issue of race, and these are all things that need to be brought back to the forefront. Rachel is doing so much to show us how to engage with white supremacy, how we as white people play a huge role in the race conversations going on, and how we can be better to support anti-racism. We need to work together against the system that has created this huge rift in society. We have so much power, we need to use that power for good. We also talk about: Deciding to start teaching what she was learning  Her college experience  Where to start in order to make a difference Social media posting being taken down  Rachel answers questions from Almost 30 Nation Example of modern-day colonization    What Rachel is excited about Find more to love at almost30podcast.com!

Explore the connection between emotions and nervous system responses in relationships with John Wineland. Unveil the values of masculine and feminine energy, the influence of posture on thoughts, and the significance of rewriting relationship karma. Dive into topics like getting clarity on desires, working on intimacy from the outside in, and navigating emotional dynamics for personal growth.

THE SOLO Confidence is so key. Yes, we’ve all heard it before, but some things are cliché for a reason. K + L each offer three tried-and-true tips for being more confident, all born from their personal experiences. But remember — confidence is always going to be something personal to you. It doesn’t have to look the same as someone else, and it doesn’t even have to look like sunshine and rainbows. Confidence is something you work on getting closer to, and you never quite get there fully, but it’s so worth working towards all the same. We also talk about: Working towards confidence Facing hard things Finding quiet to hear our own voices Channeled writing Appreciating your body Engaging in self-care Looking back on your progress Find more to love at almost30podcast.com!

She shares what both experiences were like, how she prepared (or didn’t), how she actually knew she was ready the second time, and what happened behind the scenes. She helps demystify the signs that can give you perspective on whether you should quit your job and the steps that she took to quit responsibly and set herself up for success after quitting.
