Experience! I love that I have experience to offer to the people I care about. I’ve been through loss, divorce heartache, trauma, tragedy, Financial struggles. and I’ve learned that no matter how bad it gets that I will always be able to pick myself up off the floor, literally, and Persevere. That is true Freedom.
How do you stay fabulous?I think it’s all about mindset. You have to do the work. Nothing comes for free. I get up and go to the gym even on days that I don’t feel like it, I read to grow my mind, I write to express myself and get all my thoughts out, I communicate with the people I love so there’s no resentment, I work hard to run my business because I want my family to have a good life and on the days that are hard, I remind myself of all the things I’m grateful for. Life can be tough but it’s a choice to be happy.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would love to tell you that I would donate the 40,000 to charity, but Unfortunately, I’m a single mom and sometimes struggle so I would use it to pay off debt and take my kids on a family vacation so I could have some very much needed quality time with them and then if there was anything left I would use it to get Yoga certified because I always wanted to teach yoga on the side
