I am fabulous over 40 because I’m a wife, nurse, and proud mom of two warriors—Michael & Sophia. Their courage inspires me to be better.
Help me bring home $40,000 and grace the cover of NewBeauty magazine!
The best part of life after 40 is discovering the true joy in life, family, love, and purpose. As a wife to my best friend, and as a mom, nurse, and advocate, I’ve learned to embrace each moment and celebrate the beauty in every day. Life after 40 is about appreciating love and connections, savoring the little things, creating lasting memories, and living fully with gratitude, heart, and intention. Every day is a gift, filled with laughter, love, and the freedom to truly enjoy life.
What makes me fabulous is my heart, my journey, and my growth. As a wife to my best friend, a mom, and an advocate, I’ve learned that my mistakes make me stronger and more compassionate. I cherish every moment, embrace life’s challenges, and strive to uplift others, finding joy, love, and purpose in every day. My experiences have taught me resilience, patience, and the power of empathy, and I hope to inspire others to embrace their own journey with courage and grace.
I would use $40,000 to invest toward buying a home near my children down south, wherever they attend college, so I can be close to them as they grow and pursue their dreams. Being near our kids would allow me and my amazing husband to enjoy life together, playing golf, sharing adventures, and cherishing our time as a family. This gift would give us the freedom to create lasting memories, embrace every moment, and live fully while remaining close to the people we love most.
