Wisdom! As I've gotten older I ahve learned to act, not react. I feel as though I'm at my peak both mentally and physically. I can look ahead and see clearer paths to happiness and have the strength and resilience to carry out my dreams. Moreso, I've learned grace, patience, and gratefulness for what I have and to not focus on what I need.
How do you stay fabulous?The key to staying fabulous is is to take care of myself first. I take care of my family and friends as well but prioritizing my mental and physical health allows me to be the best version of myself to others. I do this in a few ways - daily exercise including yoga, affirmations, fresh air/daily walks, staying grounded and grateful for what I have and finally, keeping connections with others including the furry kind.
What would you do with the $40,000?Although I dream of lavish vacations, new cars, shopping and such, the true benefit of $40,000 is the financial freedom I could provide for myself and my parents. First, I would use the reward to pay down my debt so I can afford a better life for my kids. Secondly, I would share a portion with my parents as my stepdad has Parkinson's and demetia, leaving the burden of caretaker and breadwinner on my mom. Lastly, as a domestic abuse survivor, I want to help and support current victims.
