Once scared of aging, I saw myself in photos and panicked, until I realized my mom's timeless beauty. Now, I embrace every year with pride!

What I love about being over 40 is the sense of liberation that comes with it. I’m no longer chasing external validation or worrying about fitting into others' expectations. I’ve learned to value my own voice, prioritize my well-being, and focus on what truly makes me happy. Life feels more authentic, with deeper connections and a clearer sense of purpose. Aging has given me the chance to refine my path, enjoy the little things, and step into my power with confidence and self-assurance.
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by embracing what makes me feel confident and alive. I love styling my hair in new ways, dancing to my favorite songs, and wearing clothes that reflect my personality and make me feel powerful. Whether it's a bold outfit or a fresh hairstyle, I believe in celebrating myself through the little things that bring me joy. Staying fabulous is about having fun with life, feeling good in my own skin, and letting my inner confidence shine through.
What would you do with the $40,000?With the $40,000, I would donate a portion to the Breast Cancer Foundation, a cause close to my heart. I’d also support the Indigenous communities in Colombia who have been instrumental in my entrepreneurial journey, giving back to those who’ve given me so much. Finally, I’d help my hardworking daughter buy a car. She’s been such a huge help to me, and this would be a way to show my gratitude and support her dreams. It’s about giving back and helping others thrive.
