I’m 45, a business owner I get told all the time how I look under 30. I workout 4-5 times a week. I will fight my age until the day I die!!

I still feel and look great! But I’m much wiser than I was.. I had a pretty rough life, so I try my best to give my kids a different life than I had. My oldest son age 28 Is an architect, my oldest daughter started her own business at 13, she now 18, my youngest son age 16, wants to start school for welding next year and my baby girl is 7, she wants to be a pediatrician. I love my babies they’re everything to me!
How do you stay fabulous?God, Gym, eating what my body needs, and I protect my peace and try to stay positive! I also love dancing, I dance like no one is watching. I travel when I can. I love to help others. I’m a small business owner, I offer beauty services and I offer classes for those that want to learn what I do. I have traveled nationwide to train students! I love learning and I always strive to be a better person. I’m going to start nursing school as soon as I can get my daughter in an after school program.
What would you do with the $40,000?My ex husband left me after putting me through hell for 9 years. He left knowing my business has been slow, so I have been keeping my faith in God and doing what I can to make ends meet. I’d definitely use it to help my mom who currently is fighting breast cancer. I’d also move my kids back to a house, we currently live in a townhome which I’m grateful for but it’s very expensive and my kids miss living in a house, lastly I’d pay off some debt!
