Christeyne Althaus

I have grown so much year after year. I am still learning things about myself I didn't know the year before. I love being able to live my life so well, adapting to changes and working through life's struggles. I have so much to be thankful for, and I am truly enjoying life in my 40's. At this time, my children are older, and I have earned career and financial stability. These accomplishments have given me the opportunity to enjoy my life at the next level, traveling and living to the fullest.

There are so many things that contribute to staying fabulous. Heredity definitely plays a part, and I am thankful for my mother who passed down her best to me. I am also very active and maintain a daily skin care routine. I like to eat a variety of good and healthy foods. Being active in the community and in my social sphere has also contributed to my positive well being. I find it essential to connect with others as well as have a good time out in whatever way makes me happy.

A portion of the $40,000 would be invested & donated to charity. I think it is so important to give back to the community & help others in need. I know what it's like to need a helping hand. Life can be stressful as a mother & a wife. I am constantly juggling responsibilities & caring for others, sometimes foregoing my own needs. I would use some of the money to pamper myself & go on a retreat to heal my soul, body & mind. A portion would be used for a family vacation & some towards the house.
