What are your thoughts on aging?

Age is just a number, which I don’t disclose that information to anyone. I don’t even feel my age because I’m young at heart.

What wonderful things can women look forward to at your age?

I feel like the older I get, with all the experience's I went through, I feel so good at my age right now.

Share tips on how you celebrate yourself, what you do for fun, and self care.

Dance, dance, and dance the night away.

Share one experience. What did you do to lift yourself up that would help and empower other women.

Being in an abusive relationship and I had the courage to walk away and move on.

What would you tell your 14-year-old self? 

Do what you love to do and don’t let anyone stop you from doing what you want to do.

 

What is your definition of success? 

Just be you. Believe in yourself.

How is your age group relevant?

I don’t hang out with my age group. Most of my friends are much younger than me, maybe that’s why I’m young at heart

 

Who inspired you as a little girl? Who inspires you now? 

No one. I didn’t have anyone to look up to when I was younger. Janet Jackson inspires me.

 

What is the best advice you have been given?
