Defying societal standards of what a woman over 40 should look like and expectations of how we should conduct ourselves. I continue to feel youthful and remain active and healthy with the goal to continue living a full life with grace and gusto.
How do you stay fabulous?I perform self care activities and regimens as much as possible. I exercise frequently to stay fit but most importantly to ward off chronic ailments or disease. I surround myself with great friends and family. We are social creatures and thrive best when surrounded by love and laughter.
What would you do with the $40,000?Winning $40,000 would help me get out of debt, help my aging parents do the same and I could apply the remaining amount to further my education and obtain an advanced practicing nurse (NP) degree.
