With my daughters graduating and losing 160lbs, have decided to rebuild myself. A strong woman with great style and ability to do anything.
We would like to thank you for supporting Mindy Espidio-Garcia 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.
At this point in life, I have learned a lot and have started prioritizing peace and helping others. There’s no pressure to please others or try to fit in a box defined by groups of friends or coworkers. I’m happy being me and embraced this authentic self; have found the more I do this, actually the more valuable I have become. I have found I am happier. My hope is to help others find their authentic self, embrace it and help them view the current situations to build long term happiness
How do you stay fabulous?Fabulous comes in multiple ways. 1. I am rebuilding myself: I have renewed my love for the gym, slowly rebuilding my body’s endurance, balance and muscle. 2. I am thinking about and prioritizing time for me: I lost my youngest daughter to cancer 6 yrs ago and giving back to children cancer causes fulfills my heart and allows me to celebrate her. 3. I mentor others: There are so many humans dealing with challenges in their lives and trying to balance priorities. I find joy in supporting them.
What would you do with the $40,000?The majority of this amazing prize would go back to supporting cancer causes supporting families struggling with this, given how impactful it was to me and my family. With two girls in college, I really would like to give them the opportunity to earn their education also without many student loans.
