A 42 year old "go-getting" & determined single mother of 2 amazing girls, who embraces aging, & is an advocate for senior & child welfare!
We would like to thank you for supporting Vanessa C Diaz in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
What I love about being over 40 is the emotional maturity and wisdom that I actually feel and have gained...and with that a vibrance and energy that emerges and switches on like a light bulb! Enjoying life at 42 comes with a more fulfilling vibe than enjoying life in your 20s. Being able to share this energy and complete acceptance of self with my daughters, and see how they are inspired by it, is what I love above all!
How do you stay fabulous?I stay fabulous by staying true....true to my body by listening to & feeling what it needs; true to my mind by constantly feeding it with knowledge and wisdom; true to my mental & emotional state by surrounding myself with only positive and nurturing people & things; and true to my heart by being my genuine self unapologetically, so long as that exudes kindness & love.
What would you do with the $40,000?My goal right now is to build and set up a legacy for my family. So, with the $40,000, I would continue to do just that by putting a portion towards the opening of a few affordable Adult/Senior Group Homes in the Las Vegas, NV area. Then, because we are out growing our current home, the remainder I would put towards a down payment for a more suitable house for my daughters to grow comfortably and happily.
