It’s taken me 42 years to finally feel at home and confident in my own skin. I’ve learned to love my body and appreciate my unique traits.
We would like to thank you for supporting Anna Lanning in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
While they’re not ENTIRELY gone, the dynamics from your 20s and into your 30s that weigh you down like social dramas, feeling uncomfortable with your body, and especially worrying about what other people think are faded into the background. You feel free to be yourself in ways you used to hold back on. It’s all about living the best life you can!
How do you stay fabulous?I am an avid member of Orangetheory Fitness here in Southern Oregon and go at least 3-4 times per week. I also maintain a vegan/plant-based diet and enjoy cooking with fresh ingredients and making things from scratch as much as possible. Lastly, I’ve discovered many of the non-alcoholic options on the market and experiment with mocktails much more so than alcohol at this point in my life.
What would you do with the $40,000?I’m undecided. I would definitely set aside some to take a bucket list vacation somewhere fabulous like Italy or Ibiza or the Galapagos. Likely there are some debts I would like to pay down but I’m also considering going back to school to get my Nurse Practitioner license and further my career, even at 42!
