4 Things I’ve learned in my 30s

🍱 Food enjoyment matters. You’ve eaten enough meals to know that food isn’t always enjoyable, but how you display it and who you share it with changes its entire energy.

👨‍👨‍👧‍👧 Friends matter. You are a culmination of who you keep around. Assessing who your closest people are and truly opening up to relationship development changes your entire persona.

🌊 Treating a typical Tuesday like a vacation can make the mundane seem magical.

☀️ The sun is your friend. Getting sunlight in your eyes more often than not enhances your quality of life and ability to produce dopamine

For realz. 30s is a game changer.
