We did the first edition of this series in April 2023. Half a year on, guess what? Growing up is still hard to do. There's much to learn and unlearn, see and do, plan for and hope for. Turning 30 isn't a magic milestone. Twenty-somethings already know that they should be exercising, that financial planning lowers stress, that getting by on less sleep is not a flex at all.
But, adulting is so much more. Turning 30, entering a new decade, brings with it new beginnings no one is prepared for. That's why we've asked folks over 30 - CEOs, actors, chefs, authors, musicians and more offer practical, useful life hacks for anyone turning a big corner. It's great advice at any age. Take a look.

Learn to use the calendar better. It will make the next 20 years easier. Calendarise everything, including personal tasks such as workouts and reading outside of office material. In the office, block off personal time on the calendar too. See your productivity double.

Everyone has talent; only those with a good work ethic succeed. Build a disciplined work life. Build a life outside of work: exercise, sports, being social, reading, eating out, movies, anything that keeps you physically and mentally fit.
