What do you love about being over 40?

Turning 40 was so incredible. As a single mom of two young daughters, I knew my life would be full of challenges. Every step of the way, I knew moving forward was my only option. I had many days that I was reminded of the inner strength we all carry inside us when life gets heavy. I also was fortunate enough to have a wonderful family to encourage me and remind me that the little things are the big things we hold near and dear to us in the end. Thankful for the time I have to be my kids mom. xo

How do you stay fabulous?

Two years post Covid, I’ve lived through kidney failure, collapsed lung and now heart disease. Everyday I get up and I speak life over myself. I refuse to say this is it. Positive mindset and daily self care along with a routine is necessary to survive hardships. Baby steps are necessary until you get to where you need to be. Life is what you make it. It may look different from what you expected but it also makes you appreciate everyday as a gift. Kindness matters.

What would you do with the $40,000?

I would get a better car to drive to my doctor appointments. My engine is bad and I’m upside down on my loan. I’m on limited income. Also, buy food and rent.
