My 40 Before 40 List| Intentionally Choosing Joy & Self Love
Today I'm sharing my 40 Before 40 bucket list—a collection of experiences and goals I want to accomplish before my 40th birthday.
This isn't your typical achievement-focused bucket list. As someone who's neurodivergent, I've learned that my goals need to honor how my brain actually works. This list is all about intentional joy—my word for 2026—and learning to love myself more fully. Some items are creative, some are adventures, and some are just about experiencing life in ways that fill my cup.
I'm hoping to document this journey as I work through the list, celebrating the wins and being real about the challenges. If you have a 40 Before 40 list (or any milestone bucket list), I'd love to hear about it in the comments! What's on your list? What have you already crossed off?
Let's choose joy together. 🎉
