I am comfortable in my skin and I rejoice in my healthy body! My scars are battle wounds that tell a story of overcoming and of becoming a better, more well-rounded woman. I have confidence and am able to see beauty in myself that was always there, but hidden behind my insecurities. I am able to use my past (good and bad) to help others who are hurting to see their value and worth.
How do you stay fabulous?Self-care is huge! It includes 7 - 8 hours of sleep every night, eating healthy, skin-care from top to toe every day, and setting and maintaining boundaries! I live within my budget, and I spend time with family. I am active in my church and my community. I start my day with daily devotions to get my mind set in a positive direction. Most of all, I never forget that all the things I just mentioned are a gift from God, and I try to share His love with everyone with whom I have any interacton.
What would you do with the $40,000?The first thing I would do is tithe to my church. I would use the rest of the money to pay off my house that I just bought. Then, I would pay off some other bills, and try to do something good for someone.
