We’re all aware of the societal pressures and expectations put on us to have achieved certain things by the time we reach certain ages, but what about the questions we ask ourselves when a new decade looms? Whether you have or haven’t ticked off the traditional expectations of buying a house, getting married and starting a family, it seems as though we are all collectively asking ourselves more questions about who we are and what we want to be as we reach our 30s. 

Joining the podcast today is Bridget Hustwaite. Bridget is a presenter, an author, a podcaster and a content creator. Going into 30, Bridget looked as though she had it all figured out: she was well established in her career, she was in a 5 year long relationship with aspirations to settle down, she was financially independent and had found purpose in her advocacy for endometriosis. And then shit hit the fan and the expectations of what Bridget thought her future would look like crumbled. 

Bridget has a brand new book coming out called “figuring out 30” and chats with us about all of the unexpected lessons we learn when we question who we really are and what we are led to believe we ‘should’ want. 

We speak about:


The strange internal feelings we can get around milestones


Going through a significant break up just before reaching 30 


We all fear ‘starting over’. Is this the best it’s going to get? 


Family dynamics and estrangement and how it shaped her understanding of herself


The way people react when they find out that you aren’t in contact with your own family members vs how common it actually is


Maternal desire. Figuring out the kid equation in your 30s


How Bridget’s endometriosis affects fertility


Can you be a feminist and support marriage?  


What modern marriage means


What it’s like reentering the dating world in your 30s
