Creators of the Almost 30 Podcast and your guides
We started our podcast, Almost 30, when we were approaching our 30s and we were questioning everything — our relationships, careers, health, purpose. So we turned on a mic and started recording our raw, honest conversations. And when we say a mic...we mean our phones.
We had no fancy tech, no team, no real plan to grow or monetize. It was just us on our closet floors with big dreams and a lot of drive. It’s been a minute now (we just celebrated our 7-year podcast anniversary!), and our world looks completely different today.
We're honored to be a part of your journey to become the successful, purposeful, embodied podcaster you were meant to be!
We’ve grown Almost 30 into a top 25 podcast with more than 70 million downloads, a global brand, and community. We’ve toured the world, evolved the brand to include in-person events, digital workshops, and merch, built a team of 10+ people, and worked with some insane big-name sponsors like Amazon, Casper, & Athletic Greens.
- Krista & Lindsey
Almost 30 is now our full-time career. We’ve done everything we dreamed of (and things we didn’t even think were possible when we started) and we’re really freakin’ proud of what we’ve built. Because podcasting changed our lives so much, our mission now is to share everything we’ve learned with other podcasters like you.
We are so excited to offer this Accelerator Program so that we can share all the learnings, strategies, wins (and mistakes) that led us to where we are today.

A Like-Minded Community
The point of this program is not to make you an expert marketer - it's to give you the tools you need (and not the ones you don't) to market your podcast and your business effectively. Overwhelmed by where to start? This is for you.
Every podcast is unique. You don't need a one-size fits all approach; you need something that will work for you and your pod.
Join a small group of ~33 handpicked podcasters who are facing the exact same challenges that you are. Podcasting can feel lonely, and having a community of others around you to support you and your podcast is crucial to your growth (and your mental health!)
Templates & Resources
We don't just tell you what to do - we show you & give you the exact tools and strategies to make it happen. Rather than spend hours trying to make the perfect pitch deck for sponsors, why not use one of our templates? These are the exact designs we've used to pitch and secure sponsors from major brands like Amazon, Casper & Athletic Greens.
Here Are The Deets
Mentorship & Accountability
We've always believed in the power of mentors - there is no substitute to having someone else there to see you, support you and advise you as you grow and expand. We've been where you are, and we are excited to pass on what we know to other podcasters.
A Dynamic Learning Experience
The Almost 30 Podcast Accelerator includes a personal coaching call, interactive group call, pre-recorded videos weekly, worksheets, writing exercises, & resources. This is perfect for people who thrive on self-study, but also would love a little extra accountability.
