By the age of 30, you should be in a relationship. It would be nice to have a ring on your finger or at least in sight. You should have traveled the world, be advancing in your career, and have your household under control. Having a child should at least be in the planning stages. Here it is, the rush hour of life. With your 30th birthday, pressure and comparisons begin: Who is where in life? Who has achieved what? Who is doing better? This is exactly the pressure the authors aim to alleviate with their book, using an anti-checklist: 30 things you don’t have to have achieved by 30. Christina, Clare, and Katrin share their personal stories and show you how to deal with individual and societal expectations. Because no one knows better what it means to be 30 than you yourself.
