I am a 51 years young. I am fabulous, work hard for the things I have accomplished. And I never give up even when life becomes challenging.
We would like to thank you for supporting Melanie Phillips 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 able to do my own thing now that my kids are all teenagers. I love trying new things that I always wanted to try and never got the opportunity. I love challenging myself to achieve goals that some might think are impossible for a 51 year old. I feel like my life is just getting started in some ways. I am embarking on a new career of Registered Massage Therapist that I absolutely love. I’ve got so much more ahead of me and I can’t wait to see where life takes me!
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by eating healthy food, staying active (I’m an avid cross country runner.), and by doing the things I love to do. I enjoy reliving my youth by going to concerts of my favourite bands of my youth, going on dates with my husband of 22 years, spending time with family, enjoying my two dogs, two cats, and bearded dragon lizard. Just living life to its fullest!
What would you do with the $40,000?I would use the $40,000 to take my family on a European vacation, (we have never gone out of Country for a vacation), pay off my student loans from massage school, some much needed Reno’s in my house, and give the rest to charity.
