I always thought when I turned 40 that it was the beginning of the end. However, everything I have gone through made me into this Beauty!

Life, to me, began at 40. I know who I am and I set goals and boundaries to keep me moving forward and to keep my peace. When I look at old photos of myself I'm like 'Bless her little heart's lol. Absolutely clueless! Even my fashion sense elevated after 40. I've learned that dream's don't have an expiration date. As long as the good Lord blessed you with another day, he's not finished with you yet. Get Up and Be Great!
How do you stay fabulous?Humility and Grace is how I maintain my Fabulousity. I remember reading a quote a few years ago that said 'when your young and gorgeous it's genetics, but when you're mature (older) and gorgeous you've earned it. It use to brighten my day when I would get so many compliments on my outer appearance but it's nothing like having people compliment you on how special you make them feel. Now that's Fabulous!
What would you do with the $40,000?Wow... that would be amazing! I recently got my Real Estate license and now I'm a Realtor for Keller Williams Central. I am so proud of that accomplishment however new agents spend a lot of money getting in the game. I would definitely use a portion for marketing and branding. First and foremost I have to give back because God has truly been showing up and showing out for me in a major way. Take my Mom on a much needed vacation and last but not least, the rest in savings.
