I turn 36 today (rude). These are the things I wish I could go back and tell 30-year-old me, 25-year-old me, and especially 16-year-old me. Six lessons that took me years (and some really hard seasons) to learn, and six practical hacks that make my actual day-to-day easier.

This episode is for you if:

You're saving the nice perfume for a special occasion that never comes
You said yes to three things this week you didn't want to do
You feel "behind" because your life isn't sorted by 35 (I still don't know what's for dinner)

In this episode:

Life lessons I wish I knew sooner: wear the nice thing now, because we're the occasion
It's never too late: why you have more time than you think (and less time with the people you love)
People pleasing vs kindness: why one is a choice and the other is a fear response
Changing careers in your 30s: you're allowed to change your mind and pivot at any time
ADHD hacks that actually work for me.
