Fierce, fabulous & over 40! Small biz owner, mom, & co-founder of The Support Sisterz, empowering women & supporting local cancer fighters.
We would like to thank you for supporting Marlene Flory 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.
There’s something beautifully liberating about entering your 40s. At this stage, I’ve come to fully embrace who I am and what truly matters to me. Gone are the days of chasing perfection or worrying about fitting into someone else’s idea of success. Now, I live by my own rules, confident in my choices and experiences. One of the best parts of being over 40 is the wisdom that comes with it. Life has taught me valuable lessons about love, friendships, family, and resilience.
How do you stay fabulous?Staying fabulous is about living a life full of energy, confidence, and authenticity. It’s about feeling good on the inside and letting that radiate outward. Over the years, I’ve learned that the key to staying fabulous is balance: between self-care, creativity, relationships, and keeping a positive mindset. Life isn’t always easy, but I’ve learned to handle challenges with grace and resilience. I try to keep my mindset focused on what I have, not what I lack. This keeps me grounded and content
What would you do with the $40,000?If I were given $40,000, it would be a life-changing opportunity not only for me but also for the people and causes that matter most to me. As a founding member of The Support Sisterz, a non-profit dedicated to helping women in my community who are battling cancer, a portion of the money would go directly to supporting these brave women. Fighting cancer is more than just a medical journey—it’s an emotional and financial burden, too.This money could help provide much-needed assistance to warriors
