I embrace this stage of life with confidence and gratitude, especially the joy of spending time with my adult kids and soaking up every moment with my grandsons. Whether I’m exploring new adventures, supporting my community, or just enjoying quiet family time, life at 40 and beyond is about living fully and authentically.”
How do you stay fabulous?“Staying fabulous with a chronic illness isn’t always easy, but I make it work! I take time for myself but mostly focus on caring for others. I cherish moments with my husband and family, tend to my many plants, and enjoy the company of my cute little dog. I prioritize healthy eating and surround myself with positivity, choosing not to engage with negativity. Even on tough days, I stay grounded by nurturing my well-being and spreading joy to those around me.”
What would you do with the $40,000?Does it have to be one thing? We have some home updates to do, but I really want to share Tahiti with my kids and dad, we took a 3 week trip there several years ago and it was just enough of a tease to make us long to return. I love to travel but I also love to share new places with those close to me.
