Karen Winkle

I stay in shape. It helps me cope with the death of my beautiful daughter. I would, at times like to give in to grief, but I am stronger! 65

What do you love about being over 40?

I love my newfound confidence! I am no longer moved by the opinions of others. I am able to enjoy life more and be available for my adult children and grandchildren!

How do you stay fabulous?

I work at not giving into the myth that elder aged individuals must stop living and become a senior citizen just based on a number. I don’t feel 65. It doesn’t come organically however, due to physiology and science, our bodies need to move and our brain needs to be constantly stimulated, so as to not age rapidly. I believe in staying fabulous by being a giver to others. It’s important for me to be mindful of giving back after the loss of my daughter to triple negative mbc

What would you do with the $40,000?

I would donate a portion to the Breast Cancer Search for a Cure, so no other fabulous mother has to go through this terrible loss.
