I’ve raised 2 amazing sons, mostly on my own as their dad has passed on. I’ve quit drinking & smoking after 30 years & I am feeling fabulous
We would like to thank you for supporting Melanie Miller 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.
Love being able to feel safe & secure in my own skin, to love myself & be able to not care what others think, who aren’t close to me, being able to know who’s opinion I value & the ones I can ignore. Love that I don’t compare myself to anyone. I make my own money, pay my bills & don’t have to ask anyone for anything. Being self sufficient & independent is wonderful, yet my mom & kids are a great support also. I love that my grown kids have turned into amazing adults.
How do you stay fabulous?I have a very strict schedule for myself. I workout 5-6 days a week. I work four 10 hour days, so workouts are longer on my 3 off days. I don’t drink alcohol or smoke cigarettes, very little coffee or soda either. I make sure I don’t go to bed with makeup on. I pray & meditate daily. I go to bed & wake up with a grateful heart & mind. I read a lot, try to stay off of social media & absolutely love it when my adult kids visit me, they make me laugh & feel even more amazing.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would donate to the children’s hospital & go back to school to be a teacher. I was a preK teacher for 2 years & loved it. Would love to get an education degree, as I only have an associates in paralegal, & teach a grade school class of my own. I really believe an amazing future for kids comes from amazing teachers who care about their students learning to be productive members of society.
