What is Fab Over 40?

Learn More

What do you love about being over 40?

Being committed to staying true to who I am and not caring as much about what others think. The confidence that comes with life achievements and accomplishments but also the ability to cope with some of the most difficult, stressful and painful life experiences always striving to take away positive lessons.

How do you stay fabulous?

Every day I challenge myself physically (lifting heavy weights, fitness challenges) & mentally (every day starts with the NYT crossword and several brain games). I make it a point to always stay curious, and to try and learn something new each day, I surround myself with amazing people who are smarter and far more fabulous than myself to continue to learn and grow

What would you do with the $40,000?

A good portion would go towards finishing my health coaching course and to start my own business. There are several charitable organizations I’d love to be contributing more to at the moment but can’t afford, so I would use a portion to fulfill that goal
