It’s my positive outlook and acceptance of each phase of life. My mom, a polio and cancer survivor taught me to see the glass half full!

I love the confidence, wisdom and life experiences that come with age. Aging used to be something I feared, but now that I’m 51 and experiencing it, I’ve learned to embrace it. Losing my mom last year made me realize how important it is to cherish every moment with my loved ones and make every day count!
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by exercising regularly and putting quality foods in my body. I’ve been running for many years, and it gives me the energy and mental clarity that I need to be the best version of myself. I also stay fabulous by getting out of my comfort zone and trying new things. I made the decision to be a stay at home mom 16 years ago, but I recently began substitute teaching. This is new for me since I was an accountant in the past, but I love making a difference in the lives of children!
What would you do with the $40,000?I would put the money towards the college fund for my children, who will be turning 12 and 16 in the next 30 days. I feel the most important thing we can do is invest in the lives and futures of our children. My daughter is a sophomore in high school and she dreams of becoming an attorney. She is a straight A student and she’s incredibly ambitious. There’s no doubt in my mind that she would be an excellent lawyer. My hope is that we can put her through college and law school debt free!
