Turning 30 and Taking Control of Your 30’s Ft. Three Special Guests

In honor of opening my Reclaim group coaching Program for the second time, I have a really special episode for you all today. 
 
I invited three incredible women who completed the Reclaim Program in March to join me in sharing their stories of taking back control of their 30's. 
 
In this episode you will hear all three of their journeys and what it was like for them before and after the program, the harsh truths of being single in your thirties, where they are today and more!
 
Listening to these women empower themselves gives me chills and reminds me why this work is so important. It was possible for me, for them, and I know it's possible for you too.
 
I'd love to hear your thoughts about this episode so please send me a message and let me know!
 
P.S...The doors to The Reclaim Program are officially open! Link to apply below.

Bonus Ep: A vulnerable share and a personal invitation...

In this bonus episode I am also sharing a short story of what happened to me a few months ago after I saw a photo of an ex of mine and how it catapulted me into a comparison spiral.
 
Because, sometimes, this happens- and even as a coach, I am not immune to these things!
 
This experience reminded me why it is so important to Reclaim your thirties and take control of your future.
 
That’s exactly what I did, and I took it and made it into this two day masterclass so I can teach you all as well.
 
On Sunday and Monday I am running a two-part FREE masterclass to celebrate the doors opening to my Reclaim Group program and I want to invite you all to join me there.
 
Both masterclasses will take place on May 29th & 30th @ 7:00 pm GMT /2:00 pm EST/ 11:00 PST.

In these two days of workshops, you are going to learn:
 
 
The 4 steps you need to reclaim your thirties and live a life that feels good for you.
My method for how to beat comparison and live your own path
How coaching can help you to create any result that you want.
 
 
THIS IS FOR YOU IF:
 
If you feel that everyone around you is ahead and you are ‘left behind’,
Your heart drops every time someone around you hits a milestone that you are nowhere near
The stories that you have around being in your thirties are negative and disempowering
You are fed up of feeling stuck, trapped and confused.
You feel stuck and lost on your next steps and are craving clarity and support
 
 
Can’t wait to see you there!

Turning 30 and a Coaching Concept that will Change Your Life

Today I am sharing a solo episode that I recorded in 2021 on what I believe is the most game-changing concept that I share with my clients: Emotional Adulthood.
 
As I am getting ready to invite you all to me next Reclaim group, I have been reviewing the work I have done with past clients and their testimonials, and almost every client I have worked with says learning about emotional adulthood and applying it to their lives created a huge shift in how they showed up and their relationships (with themselves and others).
 
In this episode, you’ll learn: ⁣The difference between emotional adulthood and emotional childhood, ways emotional childhood could be showing  up in different areas of your life and limiting  you from achieving the results you desire, how our own stories keep us stuck, and practical tips to rewrite a more empowering life narrative. 
 
This is for you if you’re ready to take control of your own emotions so you can find happiness and contentment, no matter what’s going on around you.

Turning 30 and Choosing an Alternative Path Ft. Emily Shain

What does it mean to choose the alternative path?
Sometimes in life we make decisions that aren’t exactly what our younger selves had in mind. Sometimes in life we make life choices that those around us don’t fully ‘get’, or that aren’t in line with the choices of our parents or peers.
It takes a certain amount of courage to be able to stay true to yourself and do what is really calling you, and that is what this week’s podcast interview is all about.
I have invited my friend and client Emily Shain to share with us her experience of not going down the conventional route, and following her intuition to become a yoga teacher, holistic therapist and coach in her twenties.
Her journey has also led her to move countries TWICE in one decade, following her wish to live in nature and move to Panama, a place where she feels connected to her values.
If you have ever considered making a life-changing decision (or have already made one) but you struggle with other people’s opinions or how to integrate what you really want with how your external reality looks, this episode is going to inspire and expand you. Most of all it's going to help you to know that you have the power to pick the path that is right for you. As well as sharing her personal story and how she has dealt with fear of other’s opinions and societies’ expectations, we also talk about practical tools of ‘embodiment’ i.e. how to actually become that person that you really want to be!

Turning 30 and Starting Again when the plan goes to sh*t ft. Dorothy Johnson

In honour of the 50th episode of the Turning 30 Podcast, I’ve invited back one of my favourite guest speakers from the first few episodes: break-up coach Dorothy Johnson.
 
Whereas last time we did a deep dive into the topic of breaking up in your thirties, this time we are in conversation all about building your next chapter when life throws you curveballs that you didn’t plan for.
 
We so often have our lives planned out in a certain way and then, when it doesn’t go exactly as we expected, we have to redirect and sometimes start from scratch. When this happens, we have two choices: to sit back and hope that things will work out, or to proactively go out and build a brand new reality.
 
Choosing to believe and taking action to recreate a new plan is the core of what both Dorothy and I do in our coaching programs and we have such a shared mission: to educate that with the power of your mind you can go out and build a life that is so amazing, you will let go of your old plan and be grateful that it didn’t work out!
 
In the episode, Dorothy tells her inspiring story of going from a gut-wrenching break-up to building a life she loves that ultimately led her to a whole new career in helping others and a brand new fiancé!
 
We talk about how it feels to go off-course, why time isn’t the only way to heal a heartbreak, practical tips for how to build your life back up again and how to not lose hope when you’re in doubt that the life you want is waiting for you just around the corner.
 
We laugh, we cry, we preach and we bring our most vulnerable selves to this very important discussion. This episode will give you goosebumps and contains a message that you didn’t even know you needed to hear to help you feel excited about your future.

In an ideal world, aligned friends that share similar values and lifestyles to us would organically appear on our doorsteps, however the reality of it is that we have to go out and consciously and intentionally make these friendships.

I have created a clear six stage process for how to make new friends, tried and tested over the past two years where this has been one of my key goals.

Never one to shy away from taboo topics and speak about things that aren't usually spoken out loud , I have recorded this solo episode discussing some of the harsh truths that happen in our thirties. Such as the fact that many people prioritize their careers and love-lives over friendships, or the complicated feelings you may experience as your friends move into a different stage of life to you.
 
If you ever feel anxious about how your friendships are evolving or if you sometimes struggle to maintain your current friendships, then this episode is for you!

Turning 30 and Navigating Friendships in Your Thirties Ft. Louise Rumball

Have you ever struggled with feelings that your friendships have changed over the years? Do you ever feel disappointed that your friendships are changing as you grow older? If yes, this episode is for you.
 
Listen in to a vulnerable, honest and bold conversation I had with fellow single 30-something and @openhouselife Podcast Host Louise Rumball as we girl talk all about friendships in our thirties.
 
In this episode we answer an important and ever-so relevant question: can friendships survive when our friends are in different life stages to us?
 
As well as this we discuss the ‘curse’ of the single girl friend that meets a new love, the different types of friendships we have in our thirties, and also give tips for how to meet new friends, no matter how confident you feel about it.
 
This is a candid, unfiltered conversation where Louise and I authentically share our personal lives and friendships and say out loud things that people are often too nervous to admit.

Turning 30 and Being a F*ck Up Ft. Alexandra Potter

This week’s podcast episode is a replay of one of the most popular Turning 30 episodes from 2021.
 
When our big birthdays loom, whether it be 30, 40, 50 or beyond- we often see this as a signpost to check in with ourselves and evaluate where we are in life. A lot of us come to the conclusion that we aren’t doing life 'right', and that we have ‘f*cked up’ when our lives don’t look like we expected.
 
This is the topic that bestselling author Alexandra Potter writes about in her latest book ‘Confessions of a forty-something f*ck up’ and I invited her onto the podcast to talk all about it.
 
As well as diving into the characters and topics in her book, Alexandra openly shares her personal story of being published as an author for the first time the week before her 30th birthday, and her experience of being a woman in a world where ageing is seen as something negative instead of something to embrace.
 
We talk about societal pressures, friendships, loneliness, vulnerability and why we should embrace ageing and everything it has to offer. This conversation is one of the most uplifting and inspiring conversations I have ever had about growing older. If you ever have a sense of ‘time running out’, and want some reassurance that you aren’t ‘doing life wrong- this episode is for you.

Turning 30 and What Men In Their 30s Really Want ft. David Chambers

Let’s be honest, those of us who are single and dating in our thirties have developed some beliefs around how straight men conduct themselves and there are some universal ‘truths’ that have developed on this topic:
To name but a few:
“All the good men are taken”
“Men this age are scared of commitment”
“Men aren’t as willing to do the work as women are” 
“All men want is sex”
“Men in their 30s are looking for younger women”
Who better to verify these theories and to ask questions that represent all of the male population than a dating and intimacy coach for men?!
 
On this episode of the Turning 30 Podcast I have invited men’s life coach David Chambers onto the podcast for a no holds barred conversation on the topic of men and commitment, and to ask him the truth about what men in their thirties are looking for in a romantic connection.
 
As well as telling his own story of how he became a dating coach and breaking down the well-known stigmas around men in their thirties, David and I also dive into what men are truly looking for inside of a committed relationship, and it’s not what you think!!
 
I also used this conversation as an opportunity to ask him some personal questions I have been struggling with in my own dating life, and I have to say, David’s responses gave me so much food for thought on the way I view men and the way I show up in dating.
 
If you are on board with any of the above beliefs, are looking for some clarity on dating, and you are intrigued to hear about what men are really looking for from a relationship, this episode is for you.
 
**DISCLAIMER** This podcast is a discussion on the dating dynamic between heterosexual men and women.
