What do you love about being over 40?

I have experienced many changes in my 55 years and have a clearer sense of my goals and priorities. I love the self awareness that has come with age that allows me to focus on new ventures with a deeper sense of purpose. I have learned to accept who I am and have confidence that only comes with age. I no longer worry about what others think, which allows me the freedom to embrace who I am and reach for new goals with my ever changing life. I especially love the freedom that comes with age.

How do you stay fabulous?

I work hard and play hard. I am focused on being healthier with a better diet, drinking less and working out more. I volunteer in many ways in the community. I was an outreach educator with Family Haven's safe dating program. I am a Family Support Group Facilitator for the NAMI FDL Affiliate and am going to be the Co-Chair for the 2025 NAMI FDL Steering Committee. I am also very active in many business networking groups.

What would you do with the $40,000?

I would donate a portion to charity and my church. I would also use it to assist with my new business venture. In addition I would use it to travel, for home improvement projects and a little bit of pampering for myself. Whatever was left I would put into my retirement account.
