I had to start my life over. Instead of feeling sorry for myself. I founded Heirloom Wild and became a world renowned NFT/Fine Artist!

I’ve never felt more comfortable in my own skin than I do now. Through deep soul searching and healing, I’ve learned to truly love myself. I strive to lead by example so that my daughters and sons can understand the importance of self-love. Now, in my late 40s, I’ve embraced who I am. With that growth, I’ve attracted the loving relationship I’ve always wanted. Ladies, I’ve found exactly what I was looking for—his name is Rob, and he’s kind, loving, wise, and, might I add, very handsome!
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by embracing laughter (especially at myself), eating healthy (though sweets are still my jam!), and practicing self-care through meditation and gratitude. Staying creative keeps my spirit alive—whether it’s painting, singing (not just in the shower, honey—I’ve got some pipes!), dancing, or making viral YouTube videos with my eldest daughter, Bella. A positive mindset is key! Creating a beauty, health, and wellness program to help other women heal is my way of giving back hunty!
What would you do with the $40,000?My parents have supported me through some of the darkest times in my life, and giving them the chance to go somewhere beautiful to relax and enjoy themselves would mean the world to me. Next, I’d focus on quality time with my sons and daughters. My children and I have been through a lot of emotional pain and trauma. I want to give my babies a memorable, healing, and incredible trip! Lastly, I’d invest in my business Heirloom Wild, to continue building something meaningful.
