In this episode, Julia Jordan checks in on how you’re using your “First 30” — those precious minutes each day that can add up to an extra 182 hours annually to pursue what’s most important to you.

Key Takeaways:
• 🪞 Reflect on Your Progress: Julia asks, how are you prioritizing yourself? Are you taking small steps toward your personal success?
• 💼 Julia’s “First 30” Projects:
o 🥗 Becoming a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner: Currently 25% through her certification, Julia shares how she's carving out time to pursue this meaningful goal.
o 📖 Finalizing a Manuscript: Since 2016, Julia has been editing her novel. She’s working toward a December 15th deadline for feedback, aiming for publication in 2025-2026.

o 🎙️ Running the Podcast: Sharing her journey to inspire, encourage, and empower women remains a top priority.

Life Lessons Shared:
• ⏳ Short-Term vs. Long-Term Goals: Just as in financial planning, success in life requires separate strategies for short- and long-term aspirations.
• 🚶‍♀️ Embrace the Journey: Whether it’s learning a new skill or pursuing a passion project, small, consistent steps lead to big achievements over time.
• 💪 Encourage and Empower: Julia emphasizes the importance of women supporting one another. A powerful reminder: Approval and respect are not the same—and sometimes, they’re opposites.
