Fresh off a night in the org's tour bus, Krista Williams and Lindsey Simcik join the show, live and in-studio, for a very special conversation about coming into your truth and getting comfortable there. I've known this dynamic duo since the very beginning and I'm excited to share this heart-filled conversation with you all. We talk about codependency (with a shout out to https://thebigsilence.com/blogs/podcast-episodes/10-becoming-a-boundary-boss-with-terri-cole (Terri Cole)), therapy, relationships, anxiety, and the similarities in their shared journey launching a business while building a community and how it, in many ways, mirrors that of mine and Kat with Tone It Up. More than the grind, we make sure to highlight how important it was and always will be to continue to nurture our friendships as well.

She moved to Los Angeles from New York City in 2014. The change in environment, the shift in energy, and her breakup with her favorite bagel joint on 1st Ave in Manhattan, inspired mhere to commit to creating. NON-STOP. Whether she’s recording an episode of Almost 30, developing comedic sketches with talented friends, training for her next fitness shoot, or teaching high-energy, inspiring SoulCycle classes in Brentwood or Santa Monica, she’s committed to my growth and that of those around her. Also, if you have LA bagel shop recommendations, please let her know. Krista’s Bio: Krista lives in Venice, California, but she grew up in a small town in Ohio. After that, she spent a good chunk of her post-grad life living in both Chicago and New York City. She’s really into growth and personal development, a few passionate causes, and is a lover of all things that evoke a feeling or action. In her quest for mind/body/soul mastery, she’s become bit of a fitness freak, too. If she’s not blogging or podcasting, she’s usually planning a trip, polishing off a jar of peanut butter, or reading her horoscope.
