What makes me fabulously over 40 is my resilience and my zest for life. No obstacle is too big for me to conquer!

What I love about being over 40 is all of my life experiences that I get to share with others. I get to share all my ups and downs with younger women and be an example that they can accomplish anything at any age. For example I gave birth to my one and only child at age 40 via a waterbirth with absolutely NO DRUGS! Even though so many people said having a child at that age was CRAZY! As I stated before with age I've become extremely resilient and I never give up. Age and experience is SEXY!!!
How do you stay fabulous?I have recently gotten back on the stage. I love to act and write poetry. I start my day with meditation and end with writing in my journal. I release any negativity I experienced throughout the day on the pages of my journal. I also do yoga with my 7 year old and I TRY to workout at least 3 times a week! The number one thing that contributed to my fabulosity (my own word) Is to try to ALWAYS stay positive even through the storms in life.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would pay off a little debt that I have. Unfortunately at 48 I am starting over as a single mom. My partner of 10 years recently proposed to me In May 2024, cheated on me and married someone else in July2024. I was left with a ton of debt.. But through it all I keep smiling to be an example for my son. This money would help me in so many ways. I could also take my dad on a trip for helping me the way he has in navigating my new life.
