Understanding and loving who I am, flaws and all. It's allowed me to do things I once believe I could never do, like write a book!
We would like to thank you for supporting Jennifer Carta in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
I have more confidence now than when I was in my 20’s and 30's! I know myself inside and out and I like who I am. While it took me awhile I am grateful that I'm finally exploring aspects of myself that I once judged because I was afraid. I feel like my walls have come down and I’m much more accessible to life. It's such a wonderful, freeing feeling.
How do you stay fabulous?I make sure I do things that fill my heart. I do that through my work as a certified massage therapist. It makes me feels good helping people feel better physically. I also don't fight it when my body tells me it's time for bed! I drink a lot of water, spend time with my family, our rescue dog, friends, I get outside as much as possible, and laughing is also imperative! Surrounding yourself with people who keep your light bright, instead of dimming it.
What would you do with the $40,000?This money could really help my Mom (81) and Dad (80)! Mom still works part-time as a retail associate, and while she enjoys it, she's not going to be able to work much longer and will need some financial support. I would also put some into our son's college fund and then whatever is left, my husband, son and I will give some much needed TLC to our backyard!
