    30, Thriving & Finally Done Feeling Behind

    Turning 30 feels a lot different than I thought it would. For years, I treated 30 like some imaginary deadline. A milestone where I was supposed to have everything figured out, the career, the relationship, the body, the house, the confidence. And then it arrived. In this special birthday episode of The RealHER Podcast, I reflect on everything my twenties taught me, the lessons I learned the hard way, and why I no longer believe there is a timeline you need to follow to build a life you love. We talk about feeling behind, comparison, self doubt, reinvention, grief, growth, and the pressure women put on themselves to have life figured out by a certain age. I also share my experience going through my Saturn Return, the season of life that seemed determined to tear everything apart before helping me rebuild something stronger. This episode is for the woman who feels like she's running out of time. The woman who thinks everyone else got the memo except her. The woman wondering if she missed her chance. You didn't. You are not behind. Your story is still unfolding. And if my twenties taught me anything, it's that the best chapters often begin when you stop trying to force the timeline and start trusting yourself. Here's to leaving survival mode behind and stepping into the next decade as HER.

    Stop Consuming Everyone Else’s Life

    This week on The RealHER Podcast, we are talking about something most of us do every single day without even realizing it… consuming. Consuming content. Consuming opinions. Consuming comparison. Consuming negativity. Consuming lifestyles that make us feel like we are constantly behind. In this solo episode, Kristina opens up about the pressure of social media, the mental exhaustion that comes from constantly taking in everyone else’s lives, and how overconsumption can quietly disconnect us from ourselves, our goals, and our peace. We dive into the consumer mindset and how the things we consume every day shape our confidence, habits, energy, relationships, and identity more than we realize. From the people you surround yourself with, to the music you listen to, the shows you binge, the food you eat, and the accounts you follow online… it all matters. Kristina also shares practical ways to become more intentional with your life and start protecting your peace, including: • Doing a full life audit • Training your social media algorithm to support your growth • Unfollowing accounts that trigger comparison or negativity • Becoming more mindful about your environment and influences • Shifting from constantly consuming to intentionally creating If social media has been making you feel stuck, behind, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself lately, this episode is your reminder that protecting your mind is one of the most important forms of self care. This conversation is raw, reflective, empowering, and packed with mindset shifts to help you stop consuming everyone else’s life and start fully living your own.   Stay Connected If this episode resonated with you, don’t just listen,  join the movement.

    From Survival Mode to She-E-O Part. 1

    Some stories do not even sound real… until you sit across from the person who actually lived them. In this episode of The RealHER Podcast, Shelby opens up about growing up in a cult religion, surviving abusive relationships, navigating unimaginable loss, becoming a mother, and somehow continuing to rebuild herself through every chapter life threw at her.

    Self Care is Wealth Care (Come Get Laser With Me)

    Come with me for something a little different today. In this bonus episode, you’re literally coming along with me while I get laser treatments on my face with my friend Kenzie… and yes, we’re talking about everything. What it actually feels like, who these treatments are for, what they cost, the pros and cons, and the conversations people don’t always say out loud when it comes to beauty, money, and self-care. But this isn’t just about laser. This turns into a bigger conversation around why we spend money the way we do, what “taking care of yourself” really means, and how investing in yourself can come from a place of power, not insecurity. Because sometimes self-care is deeper than bubble baths and journaling. Sometimes it’s wealth care. Sometimes it’s choosing to feel good in your skin, on your terms. No shame, no judgment, just a real conversation about what it looks like to take care of yourself in this season of life.

    Building Businesses >>>> Boys

    This week, I’m sitting down with my friend Azy for a conversation that every ambitious woman needs to hear. We’re getting real about what dating actually looks like when you’re building something big, evolving quickly, and refusing to shrink yourself just to fit into a relationship. From choosing to be single on purpose, to navigating dating when your life is full, independent, and honestly… really good, we’re talking about the things people don’t always say out loud. This episode is funny, a little unhinged, and very honest. We get into the standards, the struggles, the patterns we’re unlearning, and what it really means to want love… without needing it. If you’ve ever felt like dating hits different when you’re in your growth era, this one is for you. We talk about: Choosing to be single instead of settling Why dating feels harder when your standards are higher Balancing softness with ambition The reality of modern dating as a driven woman Knowing you want a relationship… but not just any relationship This is your reminder that you’re not “too much,” you’re just not available for the wrong things anymore. And honestly… that’s the whole point. .Stay Connected If this episode resonated with you, don’t just listen,  join the movement.

    The Bestie Hotline: #TBH, sometimes you gotta GO to GLOW

    SHE SAID "I COME FROM THE LAND DOWN UNDAHHH"... I mean come on, who DOESN'T love that song?!?! In this bonus Bestie Hotline episode, I’m joined by my best friend of 17 years, Olivia DiMichele, all the way from Australia for a chaotic catch up, some brutally honest advice, and a little international bestie perspective. We get into what a real glow up actually looks like, why the best transformations start from within, how to handle friendships when people are not showing up the way they say they will, and what it’s really like building a life on the opposite side of the world from everyone you love. Plus, we' discuss Aussie life vs. America and do some fun rapid-style questions that'll give you the kind of blunt best friend advice your group chat should probably be having. If you’ve ever needed a long distance FaceTime with your brutally honest besties… this is that episode.   Stay Connected If this episode resonated with you, don’t just listen,  join the movement.

    I WANT A DIVORCE (from my business)

    What happens when the thing you once dreamed of building… is no longer the thing you want to wake up to? In this episode, I’m sitting down with my first-ever business bestie, Stephanie Arapian, and we’re getting real about something not enough entrepreneurs talk about… outgrowing your business. We take you back to the beginning, the messy, chaotic, “figure it out as you go” phase of starting your first business, and what it actually looks like to go from beginner energy into more advanced conversations around scaling, structure, and sustainability. But here’s where it gets juicy… Sometimes the business you built isn’t the thing. It was the thing that taught you, stretched you, introduced you to rooms you never would’ve been in otherwise… but it’s not meant to be your forever. Stephanie shares her journey of recognizing that truth, making the bold decision to sell her first business, and stepping into a whole new season of discovery, alignment, and possibility. This episode is your permission slip to stop forcing something that no longer fits… and to realize you don’t have to be married to your business to be successful. Sometimes the most powerful move you can make… is asking for a divorce. If you’ve ever felt stuck, confused, or lowkey guilty for wanting more or something different, this conversation is going to hit. Welcome to your next chapter.
