What does your typical day look like?
After retiring from the State of Oklahoma following 21 years of service, my days now move at a slower, more joyful pace. I wake up without an alarm, deciding what the day holds. Some mornings I bake, others I sew, visit family, or explore antique shops. No two days look the same, and that variety is what I cherish.
What makes you feel proud?
I feel proud when I know I’ve been there for someone— whether that’s my family, a friend, or even a stranger who just needed a little help or kindness. Seeing my daughter grow into a caring, capable adult is one of my greatest joys. I’m also proud of the life I’ve built. I might not have done anything flashy, but I’ve shown up with love, loyalty, and a willingness to serve—and to me, that’s something to be proud of.
Who is the biggest influence in your life? Why?
My mom was—and still is—one of the biggest influences in my life. I lost her as a young adult and it profoundly impacted my life. She raised a big family with so much love, patience and strength. I also have to say my daughter influences and inspires me with her creativity, her kindness, and how she sees the world.
One year from today, how do you hope you’re different?
To slow down and truly enjoy life without guilt. I want to continue learning how to put myself on the list, not just the people I care about. I also hope I’ve tried some new things, maybe traveled to a new place, started a new project, or found a new way to connect with others. Growth doesn’t stop just because you hit a certain age. I want to keep becoming a better version of myself — more peaceful, more present, and still full of purpose.
What advice do you wish you could give your younger self? How might it have changed your course?
I would tell my younger self to believe in her own worth a little sooner and not be afraid of saying no. For so long, I poured myself into taking care of others (which I don’t regret), but I wish I understood earlier that it’s okay to make space for my own dreams, too. I think that advice would have helped me find more balance, worry less about pleasing everyone, and trust that I was enough just as I was. Still, every step — even the hard ones — led me here, and I’m grateful for the lessons along the way.
