I love the wisdom I have gained. I have done things and fought battles I never thought possible. I am much stronger and capable of more than I give myself credit for. I love having been married for 20 years and a mom of 3. I am fierce and my choices, good and bad, have led me to a place that I am very proud of!
How do you stay fabulous?Learning from my mistakes, giving myself grace and second chances! I am exploring new corners of my life. After teaching for 20 years, I recently became a certified behavioral therapist in hopes of being a better advocate for mental health, especially for my daughter. I am traveling to Spain with my oldest daughter soon and I cannot wait to experience new cultures, meet new friends, make memories and share new adventures with her!
What would you do with the $40,000?Our family has been through a lot in recent years. My oldest daughter is a cancer survivor, being diagnosed when she was just 12 years old. She is now almost 18 and is in full remission. Our younger daughter is currently struggling through mental illness so we have accumulated quite the medical bills. If I was gifted the $40,000, I would breathe a little easier knowing the truly important things, my family, are being taken care of. I might also Treat myself to a glass of wine!
