30 Before 30: Everything I Want To Achieve Before My Next Milestone

January 21, 2023Lifestyle

Am I 26 while writing this? Yes. Almost 27? Absolutely. Still gonna crush these goals by 30? Hell yeah!

Over the many blogs I have had in my life I’ve always come back to an X before Y list. If you’re an OG blog follower, you’d remember my 25 before 25 list. While most of what was written on that list didn’t happen, I am FIRED UP for my newest milestone list… 30 before 30!

Here is a list of 30 goals I would absolutely love to achieve before I turn 30 in 2026. I love doing these types of blogs because they’re a living list. Aka, as I complete these things I’ll be sure to update you along the way! So let me not hold you up any longer… welcome to my very own 30 before 30.

  1. Write (and pass) the LSAT
  2. Buy or build my dream home
  3. Raise my credit score to 800+ and don’t let it go below 700
  4. Contribute to my retirement monthly
  5. Contribute to my TFSA monthly
  6. Invest monthly & make enough in profit to pay my mortgage every month
  7. Create a course or coaching program about the business of being on social media
  8. Buy myself a Birkin, baby!
  9. Commit to strength training 3 days a week
  10. Buy myself a brand new car
  11. Hit all of my social media goals
  12. Apply (and get into) Law School
  13. Get better with power tools and set myself up my own little workshop
  14. Create my dream studio space for the podcast, YouTube, etc.
  15. Hire (the right) team (and afford it) in my business
  16. Hit 3M overall podcast downloads
  17. Treat myself to one luxury personal day per quarter
  18. Get my certification in cocktailing or wine
  19. Learn more about production & broadcasting for traditional TV and film
  20. Be on some kind of reality or TV show
  21. Lease an apartment somewhere other than my home city & visit often
  22. Travel more of Europe (Italy, Greece, Spain, Germany, England)
  23. Go on one luxury, resort-style trip to a beautiful city
  24. Walk in a runway show at NYFW
  25. Model for at least one big campaign as a curve model
  26. Hire a personal chef/professional meal prep person
  27. Hire out (and afford) all the tasks that don’t bring me joy
  28. Be a featured speaker at a large scale conference
  29. Craft my signature YGK shot to celebrate all my wins with
  30. Invest in high quality, gold jewelry I can wear for the rest of my life

 

And there you have it besties!

My very own 30 before 30 list. Be sure to check back often to read all about the progress so far.

Month 1 trying in public is a WRAP! ⭐ February Month 1 trying in public is a WRAP! ⭐

February was truly a whirlwind but wonderful month! So much happened and there’s SO much to be grateful for 

I’m ngl there’s some things I looked back on and was like… damn i don’t even remember putting these on here?? Which is why consistently showing up to report what’s been going on IN PUBLIC clearly is the move for me bc instead of just setting and forgetting goals I’m actually revisiting them every single month

That being said, I’m just a girl! And I can’t go from 0 to 100. So while some things didn’t happen this month (YOUTUBE!!!!) I still have the entire year to try in public and get it going

Hoping March brings me everything I desire and so much more ❤️‍🔥
