Thirty and Flirty and Thriving
To me, turning 30 feels like a big deal. Not like a “I’m getting old and 30 is ancient” kind of way, but in a “I’m maturing and 30 is a new decade full of opportunities” kind of way. To be honest, I’m really excited about turning 30. To quote a favorite movie from my childhood, I can’t wait to be “Thirty and Flirty and Thriving”. in preparation for this milestone, I decided to write a bucket list of sorts- 30 things to do before I turn 30. And in case you are wondering about how much of a procrastinator I am, I started writing this list 5 months before I will turn 30… and today we’re about 4 months away, so. I have some pretty solid plans to accomplish every item on this list before my November birthday, but be sure to check in with me then to see how I did. 😉
So without further adieu, here is my list.
30 before 30
- Start an LLC
- Do more yoga
- Read more books
- Create a sustainable morning routine
- Sew a pair of pants

Some items on my list are to help me live in the moment more. Some are there to challenge me to get out of my comfort zone. Some are to improve my health. Some to prepare for the future and meet financial goals. Overall I feel empowered to create an intentional life that brings me joy and allows me to spend more time doing the things I love with the ones I love.
If you were to create a similar bucket list of sorts, I’d love to hear what you’d put on it. Leave me a comment below!
