“When I’m 80 years old, I want to be able to say I experienced all kinds of things,” she says. “OnBeyond the Edge, I was completely out of my comfort zone. But I am the mom to two fierce young ladies and I want to exemplify that. And as I get older, I have genuinely been able to find things about myself that I’m proud of.”
