    916. How to stay connected when you’re in different seasons of life
    Oct 15 2026
    In this solo, Lindsey opens up about navigating friendships in different seasons of life, from motherhood to career changes, marriage, and everything in between. She shares why relationship shifts don’t automatically mean something is wrong—and how letting go of expectations can create more space for connection. She gets into the difference between a friendship that needs more intentionality + one that may be naturally falling away. From having honest conversations about capacity to setting boundaries, Lindsey shares practical ways to stay connected without overextending yourself or making every change mean something. She also shares simple ways to nurture the people you love through big life transitions, including voice notes, meaningful plans, meals, and small acts of care. This is a reminder that lasting friendships can ebb and flow, enter “winter seasons,” and still come back with fresh energy when you give them room to evolve. We also talk about: Friendship after becoming a mom When distance is actually healthy The pressure to be a “good friend” Supporting friends through grief + major change Why one friend often changes seasons first How to stop filling silence with assumptions Nourishing someone when they’re overwhelmed Balancing compassion with accountability Being a better friend to yourself Planning something to look forward to Resources: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lindseysimcik/ Substack: https://momplex.substack.com Sponsors: The Real Real | Get $25 off your first purchase when you go to therealreal.com/ALMOST30.

    915. Let your hardest season transform you: Faith, purpose, and personal growth with Lindsey Burwell
    Oct 13 2026
    Lindsey Burwell, integrated health practitioner + founder of The Patch Method, joins us for a powerful conversation about healing, self-awareness, and learning to trust your body again. She shares how a decade of trials transformed her relationship with her body, her faith, and her purpose. We get into the pressure to optimize everything, why more isn’t always more, and how Lindsey learned to loosen her grip on perfection. From supplements + wellness routines to intuitive movement + nervous system regulation, she shares what shifted when she stopped treating herself like a project to fix. Lindsey also opens up about fear of being seen, spiritual warfare, following intuitive nudges, and finding meaning in the hardest seasons of life. Together, we explore what happens when you release the outcome, trust the process, and let your personal transformation become part of your purpose. We also talk about: IVF, motherhood, and feeling like your body has failed you The emotional weight of medical diagnoses + uncertainty Why perfectionism can become its own form of stress Learning to exercise intuitively instead of following every trend “Done is better than perfect” in business + visibility How social media can drain your creativity The difference between consuming content + strategically studying it Building a business by following your mission + staying unattached How pain can dissolve the ego + reveal your purpose Trusting that the hard season may make sense later Resources: Lindsey’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itslindseyburwell/ The Patch Method Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the.patchmethod/ Website: http://www.lindseyburwell.com/ + http://www.thepatchmethod.com/ The first 100 listeners who DM us “ALMOST30” at @the.patchmethod on Instagram get 30% off and FREE Patch Kits!

  • 914. How the algorithm keeps you living paycheck to paycheck

    914. How the algorithm keeps you living paycheck to paycheck
    Oct 8 2026
    Anthony O’Neal, author of Stop Living Paycheck to Paycheck, joins us for a conversation about money, mindset, and building a life beyond survival mode. He opens up about the moment he realized looking wealthy wasn’t the same as actually being wealthy—and how that realization changed everything. We get into what it really means to build wealth, from creating a vision for your money to developing the habits that will actually get you there. Anthony shares his approach to debt, saving, investing, generosity, and preparing for a future where the way we work and make money may look very different. We also go deep on relationships, family, and the money stories we inherit. Anthony shares why couples need a shared financial vision, why kids need to be part of honest money conversations, and how changing your relationship with money can become part of your personal growth + legacy. We also talk about: Why a pay raise shouldn’t immediately change your lifestyle The difference between a dream + an actual vision Why your five closest friends can impact your wealth How to build a one-month financial cushion Estate planning essentials most people overlook Why social media can distort your idea of success The financial lessons we absorb from our parents What money meetings can look like as a family Why couples need a shared vision for their money Anthony’s vision for legacy, freedom, and his future family Resources: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/anthonyoneal/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@_anthonyoneal YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/anthonyoneal Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aoneal X: https://x.com/AnthonyONeal Sponsors: BetterHelp | Sign up and get 10% off at https://BetterHelp.com/almost30.
