Age has given me the perspective to focus on what truly matters and how best to invest my time and energy. Cultivating relationships in both my personal and business life remains my top priority. My mother always said, 'Be careful what you're known for,' and I strive to live by that advice, making choices that enhance these relationships and benefit my community. Each stage of life has presented its own challenges and rewards, all bringing valuable lessons and joy.
How do you stay fabulous?Staying fabulous is all about balance—nurturing your mind, body, and spirit. I focus on self-care, staying active, and surrounding myself with positive energy. I continue learning, exploring new passions, and keeping my curiosity alive. Building meaningful relationships, giving back to my community, and staying true to myself also play a big role. Ultimately, it's about embracing each day with confidence, kindness, and a commitment to living my best life in every stage.
What would you do with the $40,000?If I won this $40,000 prize, I'd focus on making a positive impact. First, I’d invest in my family's future—whether it's education, savings, or a special experience together. I’d also set aside a portion for a charitable cause(s) close to my heart, giving back to my community. Finally, I’d use the remainder to pursue personal growth, whether through travel, learning new skills, or starting a passion project that’s been on my mind.
