Receive Text UpdatesI love being over 40 because it's a time of self-assurance and clarity. You appreciate the freedom to live authentically, to make choices based on your values, and to invest in what truly brings you joy. There's also a sense of peace in embracing who you are and letting go of unnecessary pressures, allowing you to enjoy life on your own terms.
How do you stay fabulous?I focus on what keeps me energized and feeling good: making self-care a priority, staying active, and getting enough rest. Embrace your unique style, nurture relationships that uplift you, and keep your mind engaged with learning or pursuing interests. Staying fabulous is all about confidence, self-love, and a positive outlook—embracing every year as it comes with grace and enthusiasm.
What would you do with the $40,000?1. Invest in Experiences: Take a memorable trip with my family. 2. Pay off debt, save, and invest. 3. Give back: continue to give back to causes I care about and support my loved ones.
