Turning 40 is a whole other chapter! I feel like I can be me, love me and I feel like I can take anything on! It almost feels like an independence like no other! More than ever I have accepted myself and my body. When I was younger, I was so critical of myself, or I was so paranoid about what others thought of me. I love this new confidence that comes with 40. I just wish that I could go back in time and tell younger me to love myself more.
How do you stay fabulous?I work out when I can, drink lots of water, take care of my face and laugh as much as possible! I also surround myself with people who bring positivity and happiness into my life. After losing my sister unexpectedly, I try to live life to the fullest and love harder. I try to prioritize myself more now than ever, I have found out that this really helps your mental health.
What would you do with the $40,000?Oh my goodness, pay off my debt! And get a place for my kids and I! Paying off the dept that I have would allow me to have more time with my kids and help me put some money in savings. Also, I would LOVE to take my kids on a trip that they would never forget!
