I have a rare condition and cannot work full time anymore because of the pain, but I try to stay in good health for my 9 YO son!

Even if I don't have all the energy of my 30s, I am smarter and wiser... I don't care so much about the diktats of society and I am able to express myself and show my true colours (I'm a 80' kid after all ;-). I nurture relationships with many strong women in different circles; I'm done with competition and comparison. I also try to be a model for young people in my field and to help the new generation thrive in linguistic services and in life in general!
How do you stay fabulous?Like I said, I can't work full time anymore, but I continue to teach translation and editing courses, and work 5 hours a week as a coordinator and social media writer for a small professional enrichment school. This helps me a lot to stay in good mental health! Staying fit is a real challenge when you have a medical condition, but I do my best by doing Pilates and Qigong. I also like to take long walks in the wood to pick mushrooms and other wild plants that I use to create new recipes.
What would you do with the $40,000?I will use it to start a new project with my spouse and children. We bought a piece of land during the pandemic and have plans to build a small eco-domain with a few cabins, a small orchard, a big garden and greenhouses for year-round production. I would also like to initiate people to wild picking and cooking. This amount would be a very good start!
