Reinvention is key for me. If I ever not like something about my life, I change it. Travel, wellness and speaking for causes are some ways.

At 47 I get to define all the past, present and possible of what aging gracefully looks and feels like on my own terms, and I love it here! The woman I am now gets to embrace all of who I was, over the years, and what it took to become the version of myself I am today. Unashamed, unapologetically and authentically “me”. In my younger years I shaped my life based on the needs surrounding my life: a wife, a mother, an entrepreneur. Now I’m am free to just be “me” having successfully nurtured all.
How do you stay fabulous?Many days I look in the mirror and say “thank God I don’t look like what I’ve been through” and for me my faith keeps me grounded and fabulous. Loving and embracing all of me comes from a deeply rooted acceptance of how I am loved. All else falls into place based on that. Walking in confidence, boldness, and uniqueness and sharing and spreading that “glow” with other women are all how I stay fabulous.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would follow my dream to move out the Country and live abroad. I would use the $40K to help finance this dream to re-invent a life I absolutely adore and love just for me. I deserve it! I am #fabover40!!
