What is Fab Over 40?

What do you love about being over 40?

Turning 40 was like stepping into a new chapter of life, but one filled with more clarity, confidence, and a deeper understanding of myself than I ever thought possible. It’s as if all the lessons, the highs and lows, and the experiences I've gathered over the years have culminated into this beautiful, rich life that I’ve built. In my 30s, I started to truly find my voice and my purpose, but it’s in my 40s that I’ve learned to embrace life as it is—on my terms.

How do you stay fabulous?

Let me tell you, turning 40 is not what you think it is—and I mean that in the best way! I feel more fabulous than ever, and I’ve learned a few tricks along the way to keep it that way. It’s all about energy, confidence, and taking care of yourself inside and out! First of all, I never forget to have fun! Seriously, laughter and joy are my secret weapons. Good vibes and self care keep you glowing! Also, a killer pair of heels, bright lipstick, or statement necklace? Instant fabulousness!

What would you do with the $40,000?

If I won $40,000, I’d celebrate with my family first—they’re my greatest joy. I’d put a big chunk toward buying a house, a cozy place where we can grow together. I’d also set aside some money for travel, as exploring new places inspires my children’s books and brings us closer. Giving back is important to me too, so I’d donate to organizations supporting kids’ literacy. Finally, I’d save a bit for the future, making sure we’re prepared for whatever comes next.
