What is Fab Over 40?

What do you love about being over 40?

I’m as active as ever. I teach 3 dance classes per day and coach the dance team at our high school. I train in Muay Thai and can take on anyone! I trained in Thailand for a month this summer at Bangtao Gym. And I’m studying to become a personal trainer when I retire in 2 years.

How do you stay fabulous?

I stay positive. I’m a breast cancer survivor; I was diagnosed in 2019. I had a bilateral mastectomy to remove a 2 1/2 inch tumor in my left breast that would have killed me. I underwent breast reconstruction and still look feminine with a nice figure that I work at to maintain. My motto is “Never Say Die!” I’m not just surviving; I’m thriving! I’ve been cancer free going on 6 years now. Woo hoo!

What would you do with the $40,000?

I would pay off my home loan with the money, then I would give the rest to my daughter because she’s raising 3 kids: a 5 year old daughter and 1 1/2 year old twin boys. This would help her with childcare. My daughter is the joy of my heart. I’ll always be there to help her in anyway I can.
