Hi!

Turning 30 is super scary. I hate to be so blunt, but it really is. I'm almost 31 and that's even scarier, to be honest. But, 10 months in as a Thirtysomething and I've survived, and I'm sure you will, too. But anyway, I don't need to explain this to you.

So, what are we doing here? Well, I cope with life by reading, writing, and knowing I'm not the only one out there going through whatever it is that I'm going through. So as I've been turning thirty, living with thirty, reflecting on all these things we think about when we go through this change, I've been writing about it. Welcome to "Confessions of a Thirtysomething" where I will share this journey with you.

Now, who am I? I'm Kim. I'm just an average thirty year old American. Nothing special, but that's the point. I have a family, a master's degree, I'm struggling with my identity, I love to binge watch tv, I have career goals, and I'd need 8 homes to live everywhere I want to. Some things I write are autobiographical, some are wishful thinking, some are speaking for a friend. All identifying information has been changed because I'd like to keep my family and friends after this.

I hope that as I share my journey, you'll share yours. Whether you're turning thirty, a card carrying member of our club, or reflecting on years past, we all have something to share.
