Adversity. Resilience. Love. These are some of the words that define my mother. A true beacon of light to the world.
We would like to thank you for supporting Burnette Thaxton 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.
I would say that my mom loves seeing the growth and success of her children. I think that most of her life has revolved around her children and ensuring that we had all of the tools we needed in life.
How do you stay fabulous?My mother stays fabulous by being true to herself. She never conforms and is always willing to lend a helping hand to those in need. I truly think that this is why she is always blessed despite the adversities she has faced. You never see her without a smile and it’s infectious to those around her:
What would you do with the $40,000?My mom is a beautiful soul. She is an author who has completed one book and started many others. She is also a motivational speaker and a domestic violence survivor. She has lived the last 49 years for everyone else, it is time that she follow her dreams. During covid she was laid off from her job of 15 years due to down sizing. I believe this was the universes way of showing her it’s HER time. I know that by sharing her story with the world she will help millions of others around her. 🫶🏽
