What do you love about being over 40?

I feel like this season of my life allows me to unapologetically experience my journey in a true authentic way in spite of any labels that society tries to place upon me. I love being able to embrace all the chaos and find acceptance of “the mess” gracefully, especially when it is inevitable. I love how my humility continues to increase and my thirst for knowledge can’t seem to be quenched now more than ever.

How do you stay fabulous?

I make an effort to stay as hydrated as possible, and make a good skin care routine priority (spf is definitely A must!). I also eat as clean as I can and try to keep a sweet balance of vitamins/nutrients. I laugh until I cry as often as I can whether it’s in the kitchen, the rain, or anywhere else in between… dance. I allow myself a mental breakdown or two just to remind myself to take care of me too because “you know you gotta go a little loco to say sane” -Roger Clyne and the peacemakers

What would you do with the $40,000?

I would definitely book and take a vacation just to do a little mental reset for sure. Nothing too fancy. Maybe some white sands and sweet music under the moon and stars…. I’m a pretty generous yet frugal girl so the rest would probably be used to re invest in helping us live our best life!
