2024 ~ 40 Over 40

Pearls of Wisdom

MARIA DASIGO

What are your thoughts on aging?

Getting old is like climbing a mountain, you get a little out of breath, but the view is much better!

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

Never depend on anyone.
Work hard and be independent.
Have no regrets in life!
You only live once and if you do it right the first time then once is enough!

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

Traveling is a never-ending learning experience disguised as adventure. History books are one thing, but exploring another country brings the pages of that history book back to life.

Share one experience or piece of advice that would lift other women up and empower them.

What you must understand is that you have no authority over how people view you so never try to control the way others see you because the only thing that truly matters, when the dust settles down at the end of the day, is what you genuinely see in yourself.

Keep Believing in yourself!

What was your greatest challenge and how did you overcome it?

Divorced twice. I left and never looked back.
Traveling and making new friends overcome all my challenges!
I have no regrets I live with the consequences, and I move on in life.

What is your definition of success?

Work hard and play harder!

I like interacting with others, being a good listener, and understanding different perspectives, which makes me quite popular in social settings. Additionally, I pay attention to my appearance and image, enjoying dressing appropriately and showcasing my personality.

Share anything else you want here.    

When people first meet me, they often notice my smile and friendly gaze. I consider myself an optimistic and cheerful person who enjoys approaching life's challenges and opportunities with a positive attitude.
