    It's an eery time…and I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to hop on my flight and leave New York. Is it Y2K ? Is the world ending? Does this mean we still have to pay bills? Brendan and I sloppily explain why the CrowdStrike outage happened, then we cut to Hulk-a-mania at the RNC! So much to unpack and it's giving reality tv a true run for their money. We have our own theories and none of them you should take seriously, because we're just two 30 somethings who are trying to do our laundry and maybe enjoy a seafood tower and a few dirty martinis at Happy Hour. It's a confusing time, the plot is thickening and we just want to know if we're still going to be able to say Hell yeah, Brother!? P.S. This episode was recorded before Kamala Harris became the Presidential Democratic nominee, if you haven't caught that!We move off the reality TV episode that is American politics and discuss what we get our parents and the adults in our lives for gifts. What do you get people who have everything they need? We are at the age where if we really want something, we buy it. Gift giving in 30 Pause can be a little tricky, and we both agree- experiences over material things. I share how I plan to live out the rest of the year now that I'm able to, and doing so authentically as possible. My time in New York with Brendan, my Friendan was unforgettable and I can't wait to come back. As always thank you for listening & reading.

    In this episode I am at 90% health/homostasis and I hope you can all hear it in my voice. I had a lot of catching up for lost time in New York so once I was back to myself again, I was ready for a full weekend agenda. Brendan shares his Tacky 30 Pause moment and in true ADHD millennial fashion we zip zap zop through our weekend activities while reminiscing 90s country music. And we got a surprise visit from the ghost of Jimmy Buffett so recording this episode was full of surprises and giggles. If you're ever in New York take a minimum 2 hour walk through Central Park, it's an absolute must! Brendan and I saw a wedding, a proposal and took fire pics for gram within the first hour we were there. We stumbled upon the Manhattan Henge which was pure kismet, and stopped at a couple of fabulous restaurants. We capped our weekend with great company and a laugh out loud funny AF Off-Broadway theatre production -Titanique. It honestly was one of the best weekends and I'll never forget it and I'm so glad to share it all with my 30 Pausers. As always thanks for listening.

    Brendan and I have been friends for 16 years. Our friendship can legally drive. For the first 10/15 minutes of the show, we babble like besties do. After we've get our snackies and drinkies together, and hype each other up on our physical traits because that's one of our favorite past times, we get right into what's the best NYC hacks, tips, and tricks. I talk about my Love/Hate relationship with New York and I think anyone who spends enough time in the city will also have the same sentiment when it comes to the Big Apple. From $19 mediocre breakfast sammies to finding the best Bodega bacon egg and cheese-New York will make you live in the present. I dive into some culture shocks (29:00) when it comes to Brooklyn and how many white people cosplay poor and homely. You truly never know who they are because they could very well own multiple Manhattan properties and a tech firm. It's really a wild experience to witness but hey to each their own, because that's New York for ya. Also stinky people in the heat of the summer is OFFENSIVE! And that's a not a judgement, it's a fact. Brendan shares his NYC hacks (40:00) and they are important-so listen up, buttercups. Enjoy a break from your reality with us two unhinged 30 somethings and our take on New York City/Brooklyn living. I wrap the episode up with understanding that new spaces and places heed and instill more confidence within ourselves. New York reminded me that I have all the tools and capabilities. In 30 Pause we experience more, and when you experience more you gain more confidence, and trust within ourselves. And thats a real #30pause flex.

Every year during that weird week between Christmas & NYE it has us all thinking about New Year goals and ambitions, and chances are we're all thinking the same one-to lose weight and/or get healthier. I sit down with Ethan and dive into this health and fitness lifestyle conversation because in 30 Pause it's more about the long lasting perspectives we need to encompass in order for us to be at the health & fitness level we so desire. We talk about sitting in discomfort & the way we treat our body is an outward manifestation of our internal values and beliefs. We all have different definitions of what healthy and fit is. Ethan and I crack open a series of good relatable 30 Pause moments, how we view our physical health and how deeply connected it is to our mental and emotional wellbeing.

For us 30 Pausers we started with a Floppy disc & ended up with smart phones, RING Doorbells, A.I. and have experienced social media in ALL of its modalities and forms. Our generation has had a front row seat (and others have been the drivers) to this social media and tech world & we're constantly reminded of how quickly it's evolved. I offer advice on how to establish healthier boundaries and communication now that tech has engulfed our daily lives. Hopefully sharing my tips and tricks will help you become more self-aware and grounded in your overall decision making and relationships.

    On today's episode I sit down with Astrology Coach- Lindsey Matos. She reads and breaks down my birth chart and how my Saturn Return aligned with the same time I launched this podcast. We have an amazing conversation around astrology. We discuss what astrology is and why understanding your birth chart can help give you the language to use when expressing your own wants, needs, and desires. We debunk astrology myths and stereotypes and have some serious giggles along the way. Be sure to inquire about getting coached on your own birth chart. You can contact Lindsey on IG @lunamar_astrologycoaching She's offering a donation based group coaching via ZOOM on 7/13/22 at 8pm EST. Be sure to reach out to her to get more information. I'm so ecstatic for you all to hear this episode. Thank you for listening, and as always like, share and enjoy :)

    This episode is all about information, resources, and other's experiences since the overturn of Roe V. Wade. If anything I want you all to get some information and know what you can and can't do at this point. This is a scary world we live in. This rough edit of an episode is for everyone, especially girls and women  who needs access to a safe abortion. I am angry & frustrated, but it's important for me to let you know that I'm here for you and will fight for our rights to be restored. Thank you Kelley, and Angela for coming on as my guests, and especially the WAMP Foundation for all of the amazing resources and information.

    I invited my bestie, @brooklynbrendan for this episode so that we could both chat about our analysis of the recent season of Netflix's Love is Blind. The show is off the charts, and it allowed us to morph in our own ideals and desires when it comes to dating in your 30s. We giggle a lot, and we hope you're able to contribute to the convo and give us your thoughts on this wild rollercoaster ride we call, Modern dating.

    On the season 1 finale I share another 30 Pause moment, more a like continuation from my 30th year of hell or what I now like to call growth!  On this episode, I dive deep into the time when I was completely ghosted by a boyfriend, and how that rough recovery was a true enlightenment on my own emotional intelligence and personal growth. I also give you a little insight on what's to come for Season 2. I'll be back and on a new level and I couldn't be more excited as to what's in store for the future of the 30 Pause Podcast! As always, thank you for listening, commenting, liking, and sharing! #letsfuckinggrow #30pause

    I get very personal and share 1 of my many #30pause moments. 6 months after I turned 30 life got very complicated and real for me. Grab a snack or maybe a tissue, if you get verklempt like me. This is my story, my truth, and it's my favorite mistake because without making this mistake, I wouldn't be the resilient and resourceful being I am today.
