This week, renowned professor of psychology and neuroscience Charan Ranganath, Ph.D. joins Lindsey to unravel the intricacies of our memory. With shocking insights from his new book, “Why We Remember,” Charan shows us that our brains aren't designed to retain everything but rather to preserve what truly impacts our journey through life. Charan + Lindsey uncover the societal and spiritual factors associated with the increasing incidence of Alzheimer's and other neurological diseases. Plus, find out how subtle lifestyle shifts like practicing mindfulness, embracing novelty, and leaning into curiosity can improve our memory. Get ready to challenge your beliefs about your mind, trauma, and depression, as Charan takes us through the science of why we think and feel the way we do. Spoiler – memory actually has the power to make us happy, if we learn to use it to our advantage.

You might know Sara Kuburic as the Millennial Therapist on Instagram, where she shares insanely relatable advice about navigating the human experience with her 1.6 million followers. Sara’s new book, It’s On Me, encourages us to get to know ourselves fully and take responsibility for our lives. In this episode, Sara opens up to Krista about her struggles with panic attacks and a dissociation from her body – a deep state of suffering that eventually led her to a life of authenticity. When we ignore the signs our body sends us, we ignore the parts of ourselves that are longing to be seen, nurtured, and healed. Sara talks us through her journey of accepting her highly sensitive nature and beginning to connect the dots between what she was feeling in her body and the parts of her life that required change. She empowers us to tune out the noise of everyday life, tune into our own beings, and ask ourselves, ‘who am I really?’ to find true peace and freedom within. We also talk about: Why searching for purpose can be painful Healing abusive relationships with our bodies Acknowledging your suffering Authenticity vs. self loss The ups and downs of discovering yourself Why self awareness is the ultimate self care Why we must engage with life fully Resources: Instagram: @millennial.therapist Website: www.sara-kuburic.com Sponsors: AG1 | Try AG1 and get a FREE 1-year supply of Vitamin D3+K2 AND 5 free AG1 Travel Packs with your first purchase exclusively at drinkAG1.com/ALMOST30.

Get ready to laugh (and cry a little bit) during this insanely relatable conversation between Krista and her actor-director-musician BFF, Joey Pollari! Krista and Joey chat about the ways we may be overusing “therapy talk” – a.k.a. things only you and your therapist talk about – in our relationships. Instead of slapping labels on someone or going overboard with “honest feedback,” sometimes it’s best to lead with how we’re actually feeling. Krista and Joey recount stories of their own shortcomings in relationships as well as how they’ve grown in their self-awareness and communication skills. At the end of the day, therapy is one of our greatest tools for evolution, but learning how to integrate what we do in therapy with our real-time interactions is the ultimate relationship game changer! We also talk about: Why birthdays are triggering Giving loving feedback in relationship The HR-ification of relationships Boundaries vs. walls “Spiritual” people on dating apps Forgiveness + accepting people The power of stating your emotions Why labels aren’t effective tools for healing Raising the bar in dating The myth of being “special” Going after your creative dreams Resources: Youtube: @joey_pollari Instagram: @joeypollari Twitter: joeypollari Music: linktr.ee/joeypollari Sponsors: Seed | Visit seed.com/ALMOST30 and use code ALMOST30 to redeem 30% off your first month of Seed's DS-01® Daily Synbiotic.

In this vulnerable solo episode, Krista gets real about protecting your energy and staying conscious in the face of family drama – especially when that drama is pointed at you. You’ll learn tools to manage your emotional reactions, fully accept your loved ones, and release the obsession with what others think of you. Of course, family isn’t the only place your shadow can surface unexpectedly. Krista goes over how to use uncomfortable moments to actually strengthen your relationships with friends, partners and even colleagues. Shel dives into the best ways to communicate with others, as well as how to nurture yourself during hard times. If there’s one thing we all struggle with – it’s letting go. Krista explains that when we stop trying to control our lives and everyone’s perceptions of us, we can be truly free. We also talk about: Navigating family drama with awareness Letting go of what people think of you Accepting friends, family + partners where they’re at Identifying friends who show up for you in hard times What it means to trigger someone else with your shadow The power of clearing conversations Creating deeper intimacy in all of your relationships Mel Robbins’ “Let Them” theory Releasing control of your life + allowing more flow Resources: Instagram: @itskrista Website: itskrista.co Website: moderntarot.com Sponsors: BTR Nation | Use code ALMOST30 for 20% off site-wide + free shipping on orders $15+ at btrnation.com/discount/ALMOST30.

Do kegels actually work? Is painful sex normal? How can breathing help alleviate pelvic tension and pain? In this episode, we go there and answer all of your burning questions with Dr. Sonia Bahlani, who is an expert in the fields of gynecology and urology―sought purposefully because she was interested in helping patients with pelvic pain. In her efforts to bring the topics of pelvic pain and women’s sexual health out from behind closed doors and find real, proven solutions for those in pain, Dr. Bahlani joins Lindsey to discuss the key to feeling good “down there,” starting with what exactly is your pelvic floor. She provides valuable insight on what might be causing your pain, what you can expect in a doctor’s office and what to do at home. So much of women’s sexual health remains unexplored, leaving us to wonder and question if specific experiences are normal…but no more. We’re deeply grateful to welcome Dr. Bahlani to the show to unpack the many misconceptions about this important topic. We also talk about: What is your pelvic floor How to connect with your pelvic floor The relationship between your jaw + pelvic floor Pain during sex: Why it’s happening + what to do The importance of pleasurable sex + foreplay Women’s healthcare in the U.S. Everyday habits to support your pelvic floor Understanding your urination habits The truth about kegels Side effects of birth control Resources: Instagram: @pelvicpaindoc TikTok: @pelvicpaindoc Website: pelvicpaindoc.com Book: Dr. Sonia's Guide to Navigating Pelvic Pain Sponsors: Hatch | Hatch is offering $20 off your purchase of a Hatch Restore 2 and free shipping at hatch.co/almost30.

In this solo episode, Krista embraces pleasure for everything it holds. So many people view self pleasure as shameful, but Krista finds the beauty in life’s everyday pleasures—which is more than sex! Krista welcomes the five senses and the daily beauty that can be discovered in each. She has learned to accept and love her empathic gifts, and most importantly not be afraid of receiving from nature, others and herself. She confronts and addresses the ego that can hold back happiness. Pleasure is a guide. It is an everyday exploration that can be embarked on at any moment. In every sense, pleasure is the ultimate tool for alignment. We also talk about: Attunement with our bodies The experience of the five senses Pleasure as a birthright Balancing the masculine and feminine Sensory overwhelm Numbing our stress The ego withholding happiness The womb space Birth control Learning to receive Resources: Instagram: @itskrista The Life Edit program True Essence Retreat Sponsors: LMNT | Get 8 single serving packets FREE with any LMNT order at DrinkLMNT.com/ALMOST30.
