30 and thriving!
The Ultimate 40 by 40 Bucket List
Hey everyone, Tanya here! Can you believe it? I’m a mere six months shy of the big 3-0! Lately, I’ve been catching myself spiralling into a bit of an existential crisis. Where did the time go? Have I accomplished enough? Is this really what 30 feels like?
Looking ahead to my 30s, I realised it was all too easy to get bogged down by regrets. Instead of focusing on the “shoulda-woulda-couldas,” I’ve decided to take a more positive approach to this new era of my life. Instead of dwelling on change, I have decided to take charge. I plan to make my 30s EPIC so I’ve created a bucket list of 40 things I want to achieve before hitting the big 4-0. 30 and thriving baby!
