In this episode of The RealHER Podcast, my friend Dallas joins me for the chaos as we get real about navigating your late twenties.

We talk about that weird season where it feels like everyone else has life figured out while you are still trying to find your footing. From feeling behind or lost in your late twenties, to the moment you realize it might be time to leave your hometown and build a life somewhere new, this conversation dives into the messy middle that so many of us experience but rarely talk about honestly.

We also get into the mental side of entrepreneurship. What do you do when you believe in yourself and your vision, but the wins have not happened yet? How do you keep going when self doubt creeps in and you start questioning whether you are on the right path?

This episode is a mix of real talk, laughter, and the kind of honest conversation you would normally have with your closest friends. If you have ever felt behind, uncertain about your next move, or like you are building something without proof that it will work yet, this one is for you.

Welcome to the chaos of The Bestie Hotline.

What really happens in your 20s?

In this episode of The RealHER Podcast, Kristina sits down with her friend Alana to look back on the last decade of life. The growth, the mistakes, the funny stories, and the personal growth and shifts that shaped who they are today.

Your 20s are often described as the best years of your life. But for many of us, they are also confusing, chaotic, and full of moments that force you to grow faster than you expected.

This conversation is an honest reflection on friendship, relationships, personal growth, and what it really takes to become the woman you are meant to be.

If you have ever looked back at your younger self and thought “wow, she had no idea what was coming,” this episode is for you.

• The biggest life lessons from the last 10 years • The fun chaos of your early 20s and the “party girl era” • Career pivots and figuring out what you actually want • The identity shifts that happen as you grow • The evolution of a friendship in a decade; party friends to business partners

Because becoming her rarely happens overnight.

Sometimes it takes a full decade.

Stepping into entrepreneurship feels a lot like the morning after.

In the moment, you feel bold. Confident. On top of the world. You say yes. You hand over the money. You declare you’re starting the business.

And then you wake up.

Alone. Panicked. Questioning everything.

In this episode, I break down what really happens after you decide to bet on yourself. The identity shift no one prepares you for. The loneliness. The pressure once you’ve told everyone. The gritty, unhinged, not so glamorous phase of building something from scratch.

Because the reality is, besties: anyone can start a business. Not everyone is ready to become the person who can run one.

We talk about:

• The mental spiral that comes after the initial excitement • Wearing every hat and realizing you are the boss now • How relationships shift when you start growing • The loneliness and self doubt no one warns you about • Why the worst case scenario is usually survivable • And why, despite all of it, I wouldn’t have it any other way

If you’ve ever thought “what did I just do?” After making a bold move, this one is for you.

Welcome to the morning after.
