Learning to regulate my emotions, finding my calm in every day and recentering myself by reminding myself of all the things I’m thankful for
We would like to thank you for supporting Lily Jewett 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.
I love being over 40 because it feels like a time of deep self-discovery and growth. With a clearer understanding of who I am, I look forward to enhancing the skills I’ve honed over the years. My experiences have brought me calmness and a heightened awareness of the world around me, guiding me to seek true fulfillment in my career and hobbies. I cherish spending time with my children and investing in my family life while embracing the journey of becoming even more of myself in the next 40 years.
How do you stay fabulous?I’d have to start with the fact that I don’t always “feel” fabulous but there are some things I do to stay grounded and thankful. I work on having an open mind and being ready to learn something new whenever I get the chance; whether it be a new recipe that incorporates healthier options, picking up a book that peaks my interest or taking time to try new self care practices. I also like to work on taking the time for meaningful conversation with my children, family and friends.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would invest in my cleaning business as well as helping my daughter who just graduated esthetician school get her business established. I would also take a mini vacay for a few days with my family for some much needed quality time.
