I am a mom of 5 fabulous boys and just retired from 39 yrs nursing career. I choose to look after my mind and body to stay healthy !
We would like to thank you for supporting Karen Carruthers 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.
This is a time in life to prioritize myself and life! I have more upstanding of my emotions and strive to embrace that I made it to the fabulous age of 60! I have learned over the last few years of milestones in my life that I do enjoy the simple things now. With my family and relationships it’s about the quality time and the special moments shared in this busy world of ours.
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous because I feel fabulous ! I take care of my mind as well as my body by journaling daily gratitudes. I feel great in my own skin and have my own style that makes me feel great! I have overcome many setbacks in my life and I hold my head high and am proud of all my accomplishments no matter how big or small. Everyday I try to get some form of activity in for my health even if it is just gardening or a simple walk.. “ME” days are important to me where I will pamper myself at home.
What would you do with the $40,000?Just coming out of a long much enjoyed nursing career I would use the prize to travel and see friends and family around the world. Being a Paeds nurse I would love to look into volunteer work in different countries. Travelling would allow me to have time to reflect on my life experiences and plan the next adventure.
