They say life begins at 40, and I couldn’t agree more. At this fabulous stage of life, I’m not just existing—I’m thriving.

What I love about being over 40 is the confidence and clarity that come with it. I’ve learned to embrace who I am, flaws and all, without worrying so much about what others think. There’s a certain freedom that comes with experience—knowing my strengths, trusting my instincts, and feeling more comfortable in my skin. Plus, I feel like I’m just getting started on new adventures and setting goals that truly align with who I am today!
How do you stay fabulous?Staying fabulous at 40 is all about embracing the journey and taking care of myself inside and out. I started working out, and while I’m still on the journey, it’s made such a difference in how I feel and how I move through life. Skincare is another big one—taking care of my skin keeps me glowing and feeling fresh. But honestly, the most important thing is my mindset: I laugh often, stay positive, and I never say, ‘I’m old.’ Age is just a number, and I choose to feel fabulous no matter what!
What would you do with the $40,000?If I won $40,000, I’d take some time to travel to a few dream destinations, like a tropical island or explore Europe. I’d also handle some bills to get financially ahead. Most importantly, I’d help my mom because she’s always been there for me, supporting me every step of the way. Being able to give back to her, whether financially or treating her to something special, would mean the world to me, as she continues to be a constant support in my life.
