I am 52, learning and evolving as a woman never stop. I have learned that being a woman over 40 requires exceptional strength and courage.

I love being able to see all my experiences, defeats, success, achievements from a different point of view. As we get older "wiser" our whole perspective changes. Beliefs, routines, outlook on life, it all changes. For the better. Being over 40 to me means being able to focus more on myself, making me a priority.
How do you stay fabulous?Being Fabulous is a state of mind, it's a practice. Nobody feels Fabulous everyday, but it's what you tell yourself, and how you treat yourself.vI am learning everyday how to love myself better, and forgive myself for all the years I didn't. That's an artform!
What would you do with the $40,000?I'd live to say that I would do something extravagant, but I would most likely pay off my student loans. As an RN we have yet to have very much forgiven. That would allow me to better plan for my future.
