I've come a long way both mentally and emotionally learning to love myself through every stage of life.

I love that I haven't lost too much of who I am. Sure appearance changes as you get older, but my heart is something that will never change. I have energy just like when I was a child. I'm wild, free, spontaneous and energetic. I'm also fun & funny. My laugh is contagious. To know me is to love me. Loving yourself is one of the hardest but most rewarding things that we can do. What makes me beautiful is my heart and how I treat and care for others. What makes me fabulous is skin deep.
How do you stay fabulous?Working on my mental state lately has been the most important to me. It's me verse me. But how you view yourself and treat yourself is top tier. It took me 40 years of lifes tests to gain my confidence but finally I learned my value in all aspects of my life. I look at myself in the mirror and I tell myself, I'm worthy, I'm beautiful, I'm strong, I'm fierce. And I hope you all do the sameā”
What would you do with the $40,000?I would buy a house so my son can have something to call his own. He's my world, my every reason so with that money I would try and put it towards his future. I don't come from money. I've had to work hard for everything I have. I believe I'm deserving of this opportunity. And best of all I'm grateful.
