We would like to thank you for supporting Paulina M. Gonzalez-Nossa 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 is that I’m truly blooming! There’s a freedom in letting go of things that don’t bring me joy, and I feel empowered to conquer anything I set my mind to. Being a young grandma is such a gift—I have the energy to enjoy my grandkids fully. Owning my business and doing what I’m passionate about fills me with pride and accomplishment. This stage of life is all about confidence, adventure, and embracing who I am, and I’m loving every moment of it!
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by running my event planning and floral design business, where I pour my creativity and passion. Parkinson’s doesn’t define me—it fuels my determination to keep thriving. I love spending time with my grandkids and cherishing new adventures with my husband now that our kids have flown the nest. Staying positive, embracing life’s changes, and focusing on what brings me pure joy is how I keep my spark alive and fabulous!
What would you do with the $40,000?If I won $40k, I’d first pay off my hospital bills and credit card debt, providing peace of mind. Then, I’d invest in continuing my education to earn an international certification as an event planner. I’d also love to share the money with my family/friends, helping them in any way I can. Lastly, I’d donate to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, supporting their vital work for women battling cancer.
