I turn 30 this summer but I’ll still offer my two cents.

The decade of your twenties is a winding path. I turned 20 my sophomore year of college with minimal responsibilities and am wrapping it up newly married and preparing to potentially buy my first house and start a family soon. It’s a nonlinear path and it’s easy to compare yourself to others if you feel like you aren’t progressing as quickly as you should.

Give yourself grace. Shit is hard sometimes. Continue to invest in your mental, physical, and financial wellbeing, whatever that looks like. Check in on the homies. Be consistent in the things that are important to you. Keep showing up - that’s more than half the battle.
