Turning 30 and the Truth About Starting a Relationship in your Thirties Ft Louise Rumball from OpenHouse Podcast

There’s loads of information in the personal development world about being single and dating, or how to have a healthy relationship. But no one is talking about what it’s really like to start a new relationship in your thirties.
Is meeting someone in your thirties a positive or negative thing?
Is it the same as meeting someone in your teens or twenties, or does it feel different?
Do people having more baggage and more exes effect how the relationship works?
Is having a biological clock and undeniable time pressures an issue in starting a new relationship at this age?
What effect does it have on your friendships and the other areas of your life?
These are all the topics that I am discussing in this week’s podcast interview with returning guest Louise Rumball, host of the Open House podcast.
Both Louise and I have started new relationships recently after periods of being single and going through big past break-ups and in this episode we sit down to share candidly about our stories starting new relationships in our thirties.
This one is loaded with real-talk, vulnerable shares and expressing opinions and speaking out loud on a topic that you probably don’t usually hear in the online space.

Turning 30 and An Important Message if you are Looking for Love in Your Thirties

Have you ever reached the point where you feel that you are doing ‘all the right things’, but you still aren’t getting what you want?
This is how so many of us feel when we are looking for love. We are on the apps, going on dates, working on ourselves, putting ourselves out there, but still love isn’t coming. It is tiring, frustrating and to be honest, a little bit hopeless.
If you resonate with this, then I have an important message for you!
One year ago, I was in this place. I couldn’t understand why I didn’t have what I truly wanted the most: love. One year later, I now understand why.
In this episode I am sharing what helped me during this time, and what I would have done differently.
Listen to this episode and share it with anyone you know who may benefit from hearing this message.

Turning 30 and Owning Your Timelines Ft Laura Behnke

This week's podcast episode is a replay of one of the most popular Turning 30 episodes from 2022.
+++++++
When we are growing up, many of us are told that we are capable of achieving anything in life that we want.
A good career? You go and get it! Move to a new city? Go for it! A great social life? All yours. A committed, long-term relationship? Of course it will happen for you!
But what happens when you get to 35 and you haven’t ticked off everything on the list? What happens when a relationship not only hasn’t happened up until now, but seems like it never will?
That is the story of this week’s podcast guest, Laura Behnke. Living in the city of her dreams (New York) and in a high achieving career (as a successful tv anchor) her life was panning out as she had wanted, apart from the fact that at the age of 35 she had never been in a long-term relationship.
She spent her early thirties focused on her romantic life and believed that because she hadn’t yet met someone, that there was something wrong with her.
 
SPOILER ALERT: There was absolutely nothing wrong with her! Shortly after making some big mindset shifts following her 35th birthday, she met her husband.
 
In this episode Laura shares with us her story, of how she went from panicking and not enjoying her thirties, to feeling calm and accepting of her timelines, and eventually meeting her partner and having a child in her 40s.
 
If you are looking for some inspiration and expansion- Laura’s story and this is the episode for you!

Turning 30 and Creating Financial Freedom by Learning How to Invest ft Dr Anna Emily

In this week’s guest episode I sit down with Dr Anna Emily to talk all about investing and how to get started in creating wealth and building financial freedom.
Anna is the founder of She’s So Money, a financial literacy and investing education company for women. She helps women learn how to keep, manage and grow their money and reach financial freedom more quickly and without the overwhelm.
This is a topic that so many women shy away from learning about, and in our conversation Anna shares the reasons that we don’t feel comfortable to invest in the stock market and how we can overcome that fear so that we can educate ourselves, shift our money mindsets and start to invest.
As well as sharing her own personal journey from spending all of her earnings to saving her first $100k, we discuss the reasons that many of us avoid this topic, the benefits of learning to control our money, why buying property and having a mortgage isn’t always the best option for creating wealth, and how to get started with saving if you are living paycheck to paycheck.

Do you ever feel like you have something that you really wanted to achieve by a certain age, yet it still hasn’t happened yet?

When Jamie turned 30 she realized that her life’s dream to write a book hadn’t yet come to fruition, and so she got to work and set out to make it happen. Her story is such a testament to how we can use our birthdays as wake up calls to get clear on what we really want and

Turning 30 and lessons learnt from over 1000 hours of Turning 30 Coaching Sessions

To celebrate the 80th episode of the Turning 30 Podcast I have recorded a special episode sharing some of the findings and interesting things I have learnt from my thousands of hours spent in coaching session with thirty-something women.
As well as being a coach, I feel as though I am also running a social experiment. I get front row seats to my client’s lives, their thoughts, their emotions and their behaviour.
Day in, day out, we talk about all of the topics that are relevant to our age group. I get the privilege of seeing the inner workings of people’s minds and understanding how the affects their actions.
I hear stories unfolding and get to be a witness to the process that my clients go through when dealing with big life changes, from career shifts, to break-ups and dating adventures, friendships and more.
Almost two years ago I released an episode sharing what I have learnt from 500 hours of coaching sessions, and since then I have logged many more than that. To celebrate this milestone of 80 podcast episodes and the fact the doors are open to my Next Chapter program, I thought it was a good idea to add some near interesting insights and share them on the Podcast.
 
I think it’s safe to say I’m an expert in all things Turning 30! I have learnt SO much from my clients about turning 30 and growing up and in this special episode I share the findings of my social experiment of 1000 hours plus of conversations with all of you, so you can also get a true insight into turning 30 and most importantly, realizing that you are not alone.
This episode is dedicated to my amazing clients.
The Next Chapter group still has spots left!!
It is an immersive group of women (it will likely be less than 10 of us) coming together weekly to learn coaching methods/tools that will help you to reach whatever goal/thing you are currently stuck on. This can be in relation to any area in your life- from careers/relationships/friendships/lifestyle.

Turning 30 and How To Build Your Next Chapter

On the verge of some big changes happening in my personal life, I decided to record a special solo episode reflecting on next chapters: how to create them and how seeing your life as a series of ‘next chapters’ can help you to build an intentional life that you love.
Contrary to popular belief, something I have learnt is that creating a life that looks totally different to what you currently have doesn’t take time, it takes intention. Whilst my clients provide so much evidence of how big changes don’t have to take a lot of time, I am sharing my own story of going from a period of dating despair this time last year, to now making room in my apartment as my boyfriend moves in.
Over the past three years I have been intentionally created my own series of new chapters by identifying what is missing in my life, what I want to focus on, and then consciously and proactively setting out to create it.
I hope that by reflecting back on these chapters of my thirties and sharing the details of the process that I went through to in order to make these changes, I will inspire you to know that your next chapters are ready and waiting for you- you just need to unlock them.
I unlocked mine by using my coaching methods and a specific process that I have packaged into a refreshed and updated version of my Next Chapter coaching group which is now live and enrolling.

Turning 30 and Realizing that Something Feels ’Off’ ft Jelena Holodkova

This episode is the first in a two-part special series with my previous podcast guest, friend, colleague and retreat co-host, Jelena Holodkova, and we are diving into a topic that I know so many of you struggle with: that feeling that you get that something isn’t quite right. You could say that you feel that something is ‘off’.
This is what we call not being in Alignment.
In this episode we dive into how to spot when something feels off and we share all of the different ‘symptoms’ and ways this may be showing up in your life, using personal examples and stories from times when we have experienced feeling off ourselves.
By the end of this episode, you should have a deeper understanding of the ways that this feeling off is probably showing up in your behaviour. In the second part of this series we are going to be sharing practical tools that you can use to
This episode is in celebration of the release of our brand new retreat The Align retreat that is taking place THIS SUMMER in the UK. The coaching program on the retreat is specifically designed to help you to step into alignment.

Turning 30 and let’s talk about Relationship Anxiety ft. Sarah Yudkin

We’ve all heard those familiar phrases when it comes to starting a new relationship: ‘when you know you know’, but what if you start a new relationship or you’re already in a partnership and you don’t instantly know that this person is ‘the one’?
For some reason, we’ve been tricked into believing that once we meet someone and get into a relationship, that we will live ‘happily ever after’ and things will just nicely slot into place. Add to this the fact we are bombarded with an array of different opinions on relationships such as ‘when you know you know’, it’s no wonder that when people start to have any doubts or questions in their relationship, they don’t know where to turn.
In this week’s guest episode, I have invited life coach Sarah Yudkin on to talk about a topic that I don’t think gets nearly enough airtime: relationship anxiety.
We dive into so many interesting topics, including:
how to know if it’s anxiety or incompatibility?
what to do (and what not to do) if you experience doubts in your relationship
how relationship anxiety shows up and how it can affect you
whether age affects anxious feelings in a relationship
the topic of settling and what it means to ‘settle’ in a relationship
‘the grass is greener’ syndrome that we can experience when we are single or in a partnership
Sarah is such a source of wisdom on this topic, based on her own personal journey of feeling anxious, doubtful, and uncertain in her own relationship to feeling a deeper sense of commitment, fulfillment, and optimism than she dreamed was possible.
Since then, she has helped over 750 people from 35 countries through online coaching, courses, and webinars.The You Love and You Learn online community consists of over 220,000 people on a journey to show up more intentionally in their relationships.
