Single mom of 4 earning my bachelor’s degree in business, currently working as a sales executive! I love to share my story to inspire women.
We would like to thank you for supporting Michele Marks 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.
What I love about being over 40 years old is now I have learned so many lessons that I wish I had known before and so many lessons that I can pass on to single moms and other women to be empowered that are in my situation. Earning a degree over the last four years, starting a business. Losing my mom and raising kids can all be pretty tough if you don’t know who you are and stay grounded in yourself.
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by believing in myself and getting up every day, reminding myself who I am and what I am doing it for. Keeping myself healthy, keeping my circle around me full of support and love, family and friends and being an inspiration to others to keep on going when they don’t want to go anymore. Mental health means a lot to me and anytime I can help other women struggling with their mental health is a good day for me. As women we need to stick together and work as a team.
What would you do with the $40,000?With the 40,000 I would donate some of it to our local mental health facility for women. They do so much every day to keep their patients going. I would also take a much needed vacation with my family to spend some quality time with them. Lastly I would help my extended family who are struggling financially be able to purchase a vehicle big enough to fit their family. Blessed to be a blessing!
