Three Months Into Thirty

Turning 30 three months ago has been an amazing experience. I spent my 30th Birthday in Los Angeles with my twin sister. I traveled to LA in my 20’s and left there at 30! It was a dream because LA is the city of dreams!

You would hope at thirty that you would have chosen a career or already have a career that you perhaps love. That’s the goal, right? I spent my twenties experimenting with different creative fields. Up until I was 27-29, I knew what I wanted, but didn’t earn what I was worth!

It’s okay to not know if you’re still searching!

I can admit it, it wasn’t easy. There were a lot of no’s and closed doors (On the way to one job interview, I burnt my finger, drove my car into a ditch, and tore my dress in one day. I eventually showed up at that interview with a late excuse of being in a car accident where I tore my dress and a bandage on my finger. That job wasn’t for me. If you were wondering, yes I still have that dress as a reminder of how far I’ve come. I can laugh at that experience now because it was about five years ago. But, I do believe that it was all for my good! All the tears and setbacks weren’t for nothing. It just took me a little longer.

So, what did I do differently in the last years of my twenties that made a difference? I stepped out in FAITH! I volunteered my time where I met some incredible people, some I call friends, some I call mentors and friends! Then doors suddenly begin to open! Take a peek at my work.

Looking back at the last few years all the projects I’ve been a part of have been a dream come true!  I’m still finding my way in the creative field. I’m still learning and growing, but it has been an incredible start as a thirty-year-old! I’m so happy to be in this creative space right now with some amazing people around me!
