Experience. I’m getting better at looking deeper within myself. To decide what really matters to me. Age gives you the gift of wisdom and the acceptance that you don’t know it all. I’m more genuine and honest. I also love how much stronger my relationships are with people. I’m less superficial with all areas of my life. I want substance and meaning. It’s beautiful! People are beautiful and this world can be so incredible when we peel back the negative energy and seek the positive things.
How do you stay fabulous?Self care and love. Giving myself grace and forgiveness when I mess up or don’t follow through. I am learning more about overall health and what that looks like for me. Diet, exercise, therapy, etc. Spoiling myself from time to time. Acceptance of myself, good and bad traits. I have fun and love to laugh! I don’t take myself too seriously all the time. I love making others smile. Doing kind gestures where I can. A card or flowers, or even a text, can really brighten someone’s day.
What would you do with the $40,000?I want to open an indoor playground for kids in my area. We live in a smaller town in Minnesota and the weather isn’t always nice. Parents and kids NEED an indoor space close to home, where kids can play and adults can decompress. I’ve named it MN Play. It will be a respite.
