I love my independence as a single mom, my kids enjoy me to themselves, my peace takes priority through work/life balance!

What I love about being over 40 is I’ve learned through my many life experiences and use that wisdom to share with others. I’ve learned that what gives me joy is helping others in every aspect of life. As a mom, I also use that knowledge and share that in every day lessons with my children. I teach them about integrity, sharing, compassion, and spread love when others need it most. Another part I love about being over 40? I no longer care about others’ opinions! It’s great!
How do you stay fabulous?I don’t know what it is, but I’m always told I look much younger than I am. I’ve never had work done (at all!). I do my absolute best to take care of my body, both inside and out. I stay active, hike, am an avid runner, and stay on point with nutrition (I am a pescatarian). However, I do have a sweet tooth. It’s all in moderation!
What would you do with the $40,000?The $40,000 would easily go towards my children’s college funds, including the recent Hurricane Helene cleanup relief in Florida. These last two weeks I’ve been helping administrate a large Hurricane Helene clean up Network and I cannot express enough what the poor people have experienced and lost. And now the next hurricane is hitting us head on. If I could save each and every person who experienced these tragedies, I would.
