When we are growing up, many of us are told that we are capable of achieving anything in life that we want.
A good career? You go and get it! Move to a new city? Go for it! A great social life? All yours. A committed, long-term relationship? Of course it will happen for you!
But what happens when you get to 35 and you haven’t ticked off everything on the list? What happens when a relationship not only hasn’t happened up until now, but seems like it never will?
That is the story of this week’s podcast guest, Laura Behnke. Living in the city of her dreams (New York) and in a high achieving career (as a successful tv anchor) her life was panning out as she had wanted, apart from the fact that at the age of 35 she had never been in a long-term relationship. She spent her early thirties focused on her romantic life and believed that because she hadn’t yet met someone, that there was something wrong with her.
SPOILER ALERT: There was absolutely nothing wrong with her! Shortly after making some big mindset shifts following her 35th birthday, she met her husband.
In this episode Laura shares with us her story, of how she went from panicking and not enjoying her thirties, to feeling calm and accepting of her timelines, and eventually meeting her partner and having a child in her 40s.
If you are looking for some inspiration and expansion- Laura’s story and this is the episode for you!
