Chelsea’s 30 Before 30

30 goals by my 30th birthday.

As some of you may know, I have been writing a blog dedicated to encouragement and positivity. With the start of this new blog, I (Chelsea) want to keep focused on mine and Zach’s adventures. On my other blog, I mentioned having 30 goals before turning 30 years old. I felt that it was needed to share those goals here as well. The following post was originally posted on gogivercollective.com.

I recently read a post about a woman who recently turned 30 years old and was very enthusiastic about the new decade in her life. She wrote a post about 40 things she wanted to accomplish in 10 years before her 40th birthday.

Since we have moved, I have been wanting to try new things and discover more about myself and this has been a bit overwhelming. So when I saw her list I was pretty excited myself! I have 6 more years until I am 30 and figured that setting some goals could help me to be on track for this new stage of life and self-discovery. Putting things into writing helps keep me accountable and on track for goals, so here we are.

Here are my 30 before 30.
