Approaching 30;Things You Should Know (Part II)
As a female approaching 30, it can be overwhelming because of the pressure that comes with it. The sudden pressure to marry, get your finances in order and get a good grip on your life. Sometimes, the thought of the number 30 can send shivers down the spine, especially when you are unprepared. In our previous article, I stated that this is a period of self-discovery and awareness. It is also a time to step out of your comfort zone. The concluding part of this article will highlight other areas you should focus on.
1. Health and Fitness
Physical Health: As we age, our health becomes a major priority. Pay attention to your reproductive health and stay up-to-date with vaccinations such as the HPV vaccine and screenings (breast and cervical screenings). As you approach 30, maintain a healthy lifestyle. This includes regular physical exercise and a nutritious diet, which are vital for long-term health. Remember, health is wealth.
2. Personal Development and Learning
Continuous Learning: This keeps your mind active and opens new opportunities. All forms of learning, whether formal education, online courses, or self-study, will help you expand your knowledge and skills. In addition to enhancing your career prospects, it also enriches your personal life. Pursuing Passions: Make time for activities and hobbies that make you happy and bring you joy. Pursue your passions and have a fulfilled and balanced life. Music, art, travel, volunteering, and sightseeing could be your passion. Find what makes you happy and make it a part of your routine. Setting Goals: Setting realistic and attainable goals is important for personal and professional growth. Break down your goals into smaller, manageable steps and track your progress. Celebrate your achievements and learn from setbacks to stay motivated and focused.3. Building A Strong Support System
Networking: Building a strong professional network can open doors to new opportunities and provide valuable support. Attend industry events, join professional associations, and connect with mentors who can offer guidance and advice. Supportive Friends: Cultivate friendships that provide support, encouragement, and positivity. Surround yourself with people who inspire you and share your values. Having friends who genuinely want to see you grow is a blessing. Strong friendships can help you navigate challenges and hurdles and celebrate your successes.
4. Navigating Personal Relationships
Romantic Relationships: By 30, you may be in a committed relationship or exploring new ones. Knowing what you want in a partner and a relationship is important. Building relationships based on communication, trust, and mutual respect is key to a healthy and lasting relationship. Singlehood: Being single at 30 is normal and can be a time for self-discovery and personal growth. Embrace your independence, focus on your goals, and enjoy the freedom to explore new opportunities. Don’t allow the pressure of finding a partner to get to you. Starting a Family: If you plan to start a family, consider the timing and your personal and professional goals. Discuss your plans with your partner and seek medical advice to understand your options and any potential challenges.

Approaching 30 can be daunting, filled with expectations and personal pressures. However, it’s also an opportunity for growth, self-discovery, and setting the stage for greater things.
