What is Fab Over 40?

What do you love about being over 40?

I just feel good about being my age. I have always celebrated being a woman and everything that offers. I don't hide my who I am. I encourage everyone to be kind, loving and generous. This brings out the best in everyone you encounter.

How do you stay fabulous?

Fabulous is a strong word with a defined meaning. I feel like I have lived life! I have experienced the worst heartache and have experienced the best that life gives you. Friends, family, children, marriage etc. But divorce does happen and grief exists. I believe its how you tread through life and realize happiness is a state of mind, not a destination.

What would you do with the $40,000?

I have recently returned form a 5 week personal journey/trip to Italy and want to give more of myself. I have always supported womens shelters as these are facilities that help launch new begininings, and while in italy, I have decided I want to volunteer more to help inspire these women and families to find their path. I would love use this money to help these ladies/women & families to find homes, clothing, and ways to get off the ground and into their next chapter
