I’m 42, an educator and mother of 3. I try to stay present in each moment and enjoy life as it comes.

I’ve lived and I’ve learned. I don’t worry about being anything other than authentically myself and I don’t apologize for it. I also feel like I can explore interests and hobbies that I may not have had the courage or motivation to explore in my twenties and thirties. As an empath, I feel like 40 was a transformative year and I feel very self aware and comfortable in my skin.
How do you stay fabulous?About four years ago I was having major health issues due to a tumor on my adrenal gland. I had a left adrenalectomy and spent the following four years learning how my body functioned again. It was a learning curve and there were times I didn’t think I’d ever feel healthy again. After a long battle I’ve finally come out of the other end and I’ve realized how precious each moment of healthy living is and I cherish every moment life throws at me….the good, the bad and the in between.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would use it for three main things: 1. Financial stability:paying off my last bit of debt. 2. My horse farm, projects to get me to a place where I can provide some summer support to kids with behavioral needs and adults with PTSD. 3. Make a special memory with my family (a trip together) because memories with people you love are more valuable than any material possessions.
