On the base layer add Faith, Family, Fitness, & Fun: must be that order. Mix with grace, as needed. Bake until age 44!

I love realizing I've worked more years, then have years left to work!. At 44 I've survived several life-lessons, found meaning in "the good ole days". I lived life when technology wasn't as prominent. Research was discovered through stacks of books, hand written notes were left on whatever was laying on the kitchen counter, and joy was found by talking to a stranger in the same waiting room. I have learned moderation is key, goals are necessary, hard work does pay off, and prayers get answered!
How do you stay fabulous?The key to being fabulous has held different meanings throughout my journey, while the foundation has remained the same...DESIRE. Fabulous is combining my DESIRES to be healthy, grow professionally, keep my faith, allow for balance, have fun, and show-up every day because I have so more life to live! It hasn't always been "picture book" fabulous, but keeping my roots, being raised by the best parents one could ask for, and staying positive. I keep striving!
What would you do with the $40,000?It's hard to answer with certainty, 2024 presented challenges and lessons that created setbacks. I KNOW I am still blessed, all things considered. I'd donate to a family that is very special to me, that has gone through the ultimate test of Faith. I would take a vacation with my kids, then save the rest to go towards their future education. Balancing the money accordingly. 🤞🍀💕 As the daughter of a two-time breast cancer survivor, this contest truly has a lot of meaning for me!! 🎗🙏🎀
