I am 57! I have a warrior mentality! Being bold and brave is the only way, with a kind heart. I have Alzheimer’s disease, but I’ll win.
We would like to thank you for supporting Diana Peterson in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
I have both courage and wisdom to speak my mind. I have spoken at the United Nations regarding women’s rights for over a decade. So let’s tackle breast cancer! Being over 40 gives me the grace to know that I too I have a deadly disease, and how to handle it better. There is no other choice than being grateful for every day. Age does not define me, living does!
How do you stay fabulous?I follow science. I also have a PHD and 3 Masters Degrees, so yes, I am Dr. Diana. I have continued staying highly educated throughout my lifespan. Keeping my mind sharp is the key to staying fab over 40. Strong brain + fitness + mindset + kindness/compassion are all musts to win this! Most of all, I believe in me!
What would you do with the $40,000?I will take my four kids (33, 32, 22, & 12) to Europe to celebrate life! More important, I will use this platform for the world to see a deadly disease, early-onset Alzheimer’s, through me. I will be the lens into what people see as impossibilities becoming realities! What I’m learning from my life is that living is winning. I will beat Alzheimer’s Disease (N=1)!
