I think what makes me fabulously over 40 is a lot of hurdles and a lot of difficulties in my life that I had to face and resolve on my own.
We would like to thank you for supporting Melanie 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.
Being over 40 was the scary thing for me in the beginning, because I didn't know what I would do as a single mom, and it really puts a new perspective on how you view yourself and the things that you value and accomplish with or without the support of those that are important to you. Because you are with yourself all the time and you know yourself best, nobody but you can define the way you move, the way you think, and the way you speak into a amazing opportunity to share that with others.
How do you stay fabulous?I try and take care of myself and the ways that make me happy I love being a woman, a girly woman. I love my shoes, my jewelry and I try really hard to keep myself looking and feeling vibrant and young so that I can emit such a positive aura to those that meet me and to those that are around me.
What would you do with the $40,000?What I would do with $40,000 is I would definitely put some away for a rainy day maybe invest some, take a small trip, but definitely go see my friends and loved ones that I haven't had the opportunity to see! But, I would not be blowing at all. I'm would like to start my own business just not sure which niche I would like to do.
