At 43, I’ve turned pain into purpose and growth into grace. Every chapter made me the woman I was meant to become.
Help me bring home $40,000 and grace the cover of NewBeauty magazine!
The best part of my 40’s is finally knowing who I am and what I value. Through loss, love, motherhood, and heartbreak, I rebuilt myself piece by piece. The last five years transformed me — I don’t just hear I’m strong, I know I am. Every mistake, victory, and lesson shaped the woman I’m proud to be today.
What makes me feel fabulous is owning every chapter of my story - motherhood, loss of a child, heartbreak, healing, and growth. I’ve rebuilt myself with strength, grace, and love. At 43, I’ve learned that confidence isn’t found it’s created through resilience. I’m proud of the woman I’ve become: bold, grateful, and beautifully unstoppable.
If I won $40,000, I’d probably cry first. Lol As a single mom who had to rebuild from the ground up, I’ve faced fear, change, and uncertainty … but never gave up. I’d finally breathe easier, knowing I could save for my kids’ future, handle life’s surprises, and maybe do a little something for me too. It wouldn’t just ease the stress - it would remind me how far I’ve come and how strong I truly am. 🤍
