How I Really Feel About Turning 29 Years Old | Finding Silver Linings in Getting Older

- Turning 29 was a uniquely overwhelming experience as a woman approaching 30.
Seeing people around my age building up their careers, getting married, having kids and seemingly "having it all together", I felt helplessly behind in life and became terrified of the idea of getting older as I reached 29.
But as I sat down to reflect, share and explore a little, I slowly began to see the beauty in getting older. I felt quite vulnerable sharing this, but I thought I would document it to honour exactly how I felt, what I thought and what I learned at 29, because I will soon forget about all these feelings.

turned 29 this year, and this was such a great video
Aw thank you so much, Lexis! Happy to hear that and that means a lot to me!
Your video made me cry! I recently turned 29 too and feeling lost about my career and trying to recover from a relationship that didn't work out. When you said you felt as if you were running out of time in every aspect of your life, I really resonated with that. How am I 29 already? But your video really helped me with realising that there's actually a lot of amazing things we've gained and achieved from all the years. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Hi Jessamyn! Thank you for taking time to leave a comment and sharing your story. :) I totally feel you! I hope you know that you're not alone and as I turned 30 recently I'm also starting to learn that we're still very young and have so much to look forward to! Sending you love!
Halfway through being 29....I really needed this video. I feel so lost and I am so so tired. I don't want to live the way I've been living but I don't know what to change.
Thank you for sharing. I just turned 29 last week, also went thru a breakup the week before, and have felt the similar pressures as I’ve reached this age. Thank you for sharing. A beautiful message that resonated and grounded me.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a comment
Thank you for this!
Hey Koko, this may be my first-ever comment on TH-cam but I wanted to leave it with you to let you know that your video was such an immense help for someone going through a really similar stage in their life. I couldn't find you anywhere else online but I hope you're still creating, learning, growing out there. Hope to see more content from you someday!
Hi Minyoung! Aw thank you so so much for the kind words and taking time to leave this comment. You have no idea how much it means to me❤️ You’re amazing and we’ve got this! We have so much time and so much to look forward to in our life✨Sending you lots of love!
I'm also turning 29 on 10th March. I can't focus on anything right now. It's been v tough for me. I'm in a very bad phase of my life. I have been an introvert all my life and recently I'm Heartbroken here's my story. How to overcome it. Please tell me? Is it normal. Because recently a guy cheated on me we were together for 1 year thn I came to know that he already had a gf with whom he was in a relationship for 5 years. So basically he was cheating both of us. I reached out to her showed her all the proofs. And the guy too confessed that he did cheat but I'm shocked to know that the girl accepted him again. And they are together now.. This is most disgusting they both played with my emotions I had suicidal tendencies heartbreak 💔 panic attacks anxiety. And they don't even regret of doing this. Everyone is so fake the world is full of fake people. Sach m kisiko etna blindly trust krna nhi chahiye tha 1yr + 8 months sb khatam krdia mental health and I even attempted suicide. Depression mental health is not a joke. People should talk about it more often.
Everything is relatable to how I’m feeling in life. Thank you for this video and keep pushing!
Thank you so much, sigereal! This means a lot. Sending you love! We've got this. :)

The only way that you will have a problem is if you allow society to determine what your value is placed in. You’ve got to have a plan B for if you don’t find that man. Luckily for us women now, we aren’t pressured as much anymore and there are other options for having children etc.
When’s the next video :D
