My name is Nina, I’m 52, & with age, comes a certain confidence that you don’t have when you’re younger. And confidence is FABULOUS!!!
We would like to thank you for supporting Nina Rubenstein 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.
After 40, most things seem to start “falling down”, but I did notice something important going up, & that is the quality of my relationships. Because I am wiser & I am able to set clear boundaries now, I am able to have more meaningful and deeper friendships, as well as romantic partners in my life, after the age of 40. I also prioritize quality over quantity in regards to the people I choose to surround myself with, which leaves me with a more fulfilling life overall vs when I was younger.
How do you stay fabulous?I believe staying fabulous is a mix of confidence, self-care, and having fun. I am a single mother of 2 teenagers, and they keep me feeling young & fabulous. I try to eat healthy & exercise when time permits, but I also believe that you should “indulge” once in a while as well. I love chocolate & candy, so I never want to deprive myself of things that I love. Everything in moderation is a phrase that I live by, & I think living this sort of lifestyle contributes to keeping me fabulous over 40!
What would you do with the $40,000?Unfortunately, I recently got laid off from my job after 11 years with the same company. That money would REALLY come in handy for my kids & myself. I could use a more dependable car because mine is over 10yrs old, & things are starting to break down with it lately. Also, I would LOVE to take my kids on a cruise & make the most FABULOUS memories with them before I am an empty-nester. We’ve never been on a vacation like that before and I would be so appreciative. Thank you for this opportunity!
