Welcome to another episode of our Thriving Thirties Series. Our guest today is the talented, the fabulous, the ray of sunshine, Christine Jordan. She graduated from the University of California Davis with a degree in Computer Engineering. Right after college, her career took a different turn, as she began working at one of the biggest accounting firms in the world, and through natural talent for working with teams, an excellent eye for detail, and her ability to lead with humilty and grace, her career trajectory began as an admin assistant at age 24, then slowly but surely moved up the ranks to executive assistant at 32, to manager, and then regional manager when she turned 38 a couple years ago.
Literally everyone that ever meets her say she is one of the nicest people they’ve ever met, and that is no exaggeration. To be around her is to have your day brightened up, and to interact with someone who will genuinely choose to see the best in you.
One small detail, is that she happens to be my big sister, so I have known her all my life and I can tell you that she is a gem for our family who selflessly takes care of everyone and makes quality time with her family her first priority.
She also makes self-care a priority and stays fit by eating healthy, thanks to a healthy addiction to cooking shows, and in 2021 is still obsessed with the backstreet boys and exercises by dancing to them and many other of our favorite pop songs from the 90s and 2000s.
We are bringing her on today to reflect on her 30s as she is at the very end of this incredible decade, what it has been like to grow in her career, the joys and challenges of raising teenage daughters and how she lives a life of true peace and happiness. We recorded this episode at 9pm on the day before her 40th birthday so this is an incredible and extra special moment that we are capturing, right here on Syren thriving, that she is of course giving us, because I will forever be the spoiled little sister.
IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:
- how getting older makes you think about the next decades and phases of your life
- the joys and challenges of motherhood and raising teenagers in your 30s
- the lifelong journey of gaining confidence in yourself and overcoming fears
- the importance of self-care and renewing your spirit
-how calling someone a "human being" can be a "self-check" to send compassion for others
- the power of gratitude and the exact process our guest uses for dealing with the inevitable hardships of life
