i woke up a week ago & just like that, i’m 30.
Recently, I made a promise to myself—a real, no-turning-back commitment. It wasn’t just a wish, one of the many thoughts floating around in my head, or a type of resolution. This was a pact. A pact that says: “I’m done being comfortable with where I am, I’m ready to be the woman & mother I want to be.”
I’ve spent years building businesses & dreaming about the future. I’ve started & stopped countless ventures. There were more moments than I’d like to admit where I got stuck in the comfort of being at home, raising my toddler, & letting life pass me by. But there’s just something about him growing so fast & baby #2 quickly approaching + my 30th birthday being today that’s slapping my brain into overdrive.
It’s literally now or never.
Turning 30 is something I’d like to consider a major milestone. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about where I want to be at this point in my life—& honestly, I’m nowhere near where I thought I would. Frankly, motherhood was something I definitely didn’t see being part of my journey EVER & becoming a mother of two at that, is blowing my mind. It means more than just diapers, sleep regression & midnight feedings—it means financial stability, growth, and a new chapter. So I don’t really have a choice but to make some real shifts in life. However it’s something I feel is necessary not just for my kids, but for myself.
Ultimately, it’s time to grow up. It’s been time to grow up. I’m loooooong overdue, actually. But admitting is the first step. It’s time to get out of my own way. Time to stop waiting for the “perfect moment” to begin—because it’s already here. I’ve set myself a deadline to hit my first major financial goal: $30,000 in 90 days.
It’s not about just hitting a number—it’s about preparing for what comes next. I’m gearing up to move into my first apartment with my two kids, get my very first “mom mobile,” & create a lifestyle that doesn’t just sustain us but fully allows us to thrive.
I know this journey won’t be easy & even sounds absolutely ridiculous to the everyday realist. I’ll be juggling my growing businesses, the chaos of preparing for a new baby, & keeping up with a toddler that just entered his “terrible” two’s all by myself. But I’ve never been motivated & determined in my life & I’m ready to kickstart the rest of it TODAY.

While building my future isn’t ideal while already having kids isn’t ideal, it’s necessary. I personally didn’t want kids, because I know how cruel this world can be & the added responsibility wasn’t my favorite either. Regardless of how I felt before, they deserve the best life possible, because they didn’t ask to be here, let alone watch me struggle just to provide. They didn’t ask to be taken care of by random people because I spend 8-14 hours working, living paycheck to paycheck. I’m not only working toward financial freedom. I’m working toward the life I’ve always dreamed of for myself & now, my children. This 30-day journey is more than just hitting a target—it’s about building a foundation for the next chapter. I know it won’t always be easy. Between pregnancy, keeping up with a toddler & managing a dozen tasks at once, it’ll be chaotic. But this is exactly where I need to be.
If you’ve made it this & are thinking, “I can’t do it” or “It’s too hard,” trust me, I’ve been there. More than once, before my son’s were even thought about. What I’ve realized is that if you don’t start, you’ll never get the momentum you need to get to where you want to be. So, this is my commitment: I’m ready to build this future, I’m ready to create something bigger than myself &if you’re ready too, we can do this together! Let’s see what happens when we go all in & push each other to grow.
