So, you may be wondering what is “Shift2Thirty?” Around 26 years old I noticed myself changing. I kept questioning everything. What is my purpose? Will I get married? I’m turning 30 soon and my life doesn’t look the way it should. For years I’ve been sold the idea that I’m supposed to have my life completely together at 30 and if not it’s all downhill from there. We are supposed to be married by this time, have children, drive a luxury vehicle, own a home, booming career, own a business, be in the best shape of your life and more. Accomplishing these things is wonderful and I applaud those that have. However, what if it happens at 32? Or you achieve many of them at 35 or 40? It does not make it less great. Why is 30 the end of it all? I noticed a shift in myself and became quieter, thinking, crying, praying, and reflecting more than ever. I was unhappy and found myself complaining a lot. However, I complained about things I had the power to change. I had to believe it could, put the work in, and show gratitude for what I do have. When it clicked, my mindset began to shift. I started making statuses on Facebook on things I’ve observed, lessons I’ve learned, loving myself in all forms, and the shift from knowing better to doing better.
Celebrating life in my 30s through love, lessons and leveling up to reach the highest version of myself. My Shift2Thirty blog is about hitting your stride and embracing transformation by observing your patterns, establishing healthy boundaries, practicing self-love, flourishing in your womanhood, and actively reinventing yourself to become who you were always meant to be. Do not be afraid of her. This is my personal journey that will include a few stories, some revelations, and an attempt to explain what happens entering your 30s and the many “ah ha” moments that come along with it. However, this is not meant to be an advice blog; I am not a life coach or lifestyle expert. This is a healing tool for me. My hope is that other women in their 30s or entering their 30s will relate to my journey and the stories I share and maybe feel comfortable enough to share a few of their own. Life does not stop at 30, it is only beginning. Enjoy the wisdom that comes and embrace it.
Welcome to the Shift.–Meosha
