I love the natural maturity that develops to throw off conformity. It’s a freedom that gives you an opportunity to create every day and an even a new life. I made choices in life that forced me to grow whether intentional or unintentional. I learn everyday how to become my own cheerleader, hero, and loving parent. I am an example to my two girls and how they can be strong women no matter the obstacles. My vision is more focused to shine bright in the next half of my life.
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by breathing deeply and loving myself unconditionally. My breath grounds my existence and reminds me I’m alive and that there is flow to life. Unconditional love for myself empowers me to keep going when I’m exhausted, scared, doubtful and it also gives me permission to rest when I’m overwhelmed and at zero. Awareness and self love are the foundation of my second life - life over 40. I can only control myself and how I show up. I try to let things go with love and grace.
What would you do with the $40,000?It would provide the funds to finalize my divorce for fair access to my children. I will donate the remaining funds to an organization I support: Batu Kapal Conservation. Conservation is a bio link and the last place on Earth where four endangered species cohabitate. The species include the white rhino, pigmy elephant, orangutan, and Sumatran tiger. Conservation is very important to help restore the Earth's environmental balance and the deforestation this particular area has endured.
