Episode Synopsis

I was 30 and didn't have a husband. For someone who spent her teenage years dreaming about wedding dresses (the pink poofy ones were my favourite) and flipping through bridal magazines, this wasn't exactly part of the plan. My plan was to get married, have a big wedding with all the pink frills, buy a house and have heaps of kids and dogs. So you can imagine my great disappointment when I woke up at 30 and didn’t have any of those things!So on my 30th birthday, I knew it was time to find myself a husband. While my 20s had been filled with passport stamps and career wins, what I wanted now was really clear - I was ready to find my person. Not because society said I should, not because I was running out of time, but because I knew in my bones this was what I wanted. This wasn't about ticking a box or following a timeline. This was about being honest with myself about what I truly desired - a husband, a family, and yes, two dogs (though for some reason, I thought those had to come after the husband). So after throwing myself a birthday party and getting a tattoo - why not, right? - I decided to get serious about finding love with the same focus I'd brought to building my career.I knew what I wanted, I had a strategy and I was going to find him.This episode is quite vulnerable and I’ll admit, it feels a bit strange sharing on such a personal level. But the truth is, whether you're building a business, finding love, or creating your dream life, the principle remains the same: Clarity combined with consistent, inspired action is unstoppable. You don't need to see the entire path - you just need to know your next right move and be brave enough to take it.Emma McQueen:WebsiteFor a copy of Emma's book, 'Go-getter: Raise your mojo, shift your mindset and thrive' – https://www.emmamcqueen.com.au/book/
