Positivity and being positive.

One can say that both terms are relative or that they are just a way of thinking. With all of the negative that has now run rampant and unchecked socially and online, it’s hard to find reasons and people to help make you feel positive about yourself.

You have cyber bullying and shamers who look to nitpick and troll out of blissful ignorance. Thankfully, there are some positive individuals who are looking to be examples of rising about vile negativity. One of them being Debra Jean.

At 55, the mother of two and grandparent of one is simply redefining what fifty year olds should look like as she is simply killing it on IG with her fitness-inspired meets sexy posts. A modern-day cougar who is both unapologetic about her looks and her age, she exudes a positive confidence and sexiness that needs to be appreciatively.

Below is my Q and A with Debra as we talk positivity, being newly single, dealing with shamers and why age is just a number!

Height: 5’6

What does “Fitness Focus” mean to you? My focus on fitness is holistic. I am not focused on perfection but more so on being toxin free and stress free. I don’t drink or smoke and I eat healthy foods. When I am working out I focus on working up a sweat but I don’t over do it. I believe that a happy medium burn is best for longevity.

Define “fitness and focus” in your own words? Fitness is being able to be active. If it’s hard to walk without gasping for breath than that indicates poor fitness. Also cholesterol and blood pressure is important. I have the blood pressure of a 20 year old and my cholesterol is text book amazing according to my doc!

Focus is making consistent healthy choices everyday for life. You can decide to commit for a year and achieve amazing fitness goals, but a lifelong commitment is key. The focus is on longevity not perfection in my opinion.

Tell us all a little about you? I was born on the Columbus Day Storm so everyone older than me remembers that stormy day! I am spiritual and humble. I am independent and unique in my views. My beliefs never waiver and I know exactly who I am. I consider myself a work in progress and I am always striving to reinvent myself. I gave up alcohol at 29 and haven’t touched it since. I love my coffee and shopping!

I love fashion and have an eclectic sense of style. I am a natural green eyed blond. I got my breast enhanced at 50 years old. I have two daughters born 17 years apart and they both amazing and gifted artists. I have a 10-year-old gbaby girl.

I am in a long-term marriage with a wonderful amazingly gifted guitarist, we have decided to part ways for a few years to develop our independence. I am a waitress and proud of it! I work hard for my money and I love my job. My Great Grandfather migrated here from England and opened up his own cafe so this line of work is in my blood. My Father was also a career server bartender. I wake up every day excited about life and my future!

Per your IG, you seem to have a very sunny, positive and outgoing personality and outlook on life. How did that come about? I have worked hard at trying to think positive. I choose to look at the bright side of life instead of caving in to negative thinking. I have had many struggles in my life and I am a true survivor.

I almost died three times so I understand the difference between happiness and sorrow. Also my spiritual beliefs have taught me that things happen for a reason and often the worst of times teach us the greatest lessons. Knowing this I have no reason at this point to not be ecstatic with my humble life.

What is your opinion of “shamers” online and how do you deal with them? I haven’t had a problem with online shaming but if I did I would simply ignore and block. I’m not going to waste my time defending myself against someone like that.

On your IG profile, you call yourself “mature body positive” what does that exactly mean? I’m 55 years old and have a positive attitude about myself. I choose to highlight the positives and not focus on my flaws. I am proud of the image I project and I credit that to a body positive attitude. Confidence comes with maturity and confidence is key to being body positive at any age.

Any new projects and magazine spreads coming in 2018? I am going to reach out to some sponsors and hopefully get sponsored. I’m thinking energy drink, apparel and longevity supplements. 

What kind of model are you (IG, glamour, fashion, etc?) Sexy fashion fitness hybrid!

Thoughts on the rise in popularity of glamour models on Instagram? It’s all good! More power to all of those beautiful ladies!

Since you’re a self-described “Java lady” do you prefer Pumpkin spice, Salted Caramel or Peppermint Mocha? I like brewed coffee with cream no sugar but if I had to pick it would be the Salted Caramel.

Fave coffee blend? Starbucks blonde roast

What flavors do you swear by? Vanilla Coconut and Caramel

Hot swimsuit trends to watch for in 2018? Retro skirted, push up bra top.

string bikini, thong, two-piece or bodysuit, which do you prefer? String bikini with a sarong or skirt

What would you say is your best feature?I like my hair, I never have to dye it and I only get three haircuts a year!

What makes you feel sexy? The full Moon

What exudes sexiness? Confidence

Best/worst pickup line you’ve heard? Best, here’s my number text me if you want to meet up. Worst, you want to see my dick pic!

What attracts you most to a man? A quiet confidence and he never brags. He’s a hard worker and is responsible. He adores me and tries to show me by spending quality time together. He is interested in my soul and my aspirations and supports my decisions.

He has to be passionate and takes the lead without being domineering. He makes me laugh!! And he has his own aspirations and goals in life and is independent. I can see right through a phony act so disingenuous advances are a total turn off! I need to be friends first.

What is THE one hot fashion item that you must have/or get this season? A Red Micheal Kors bag, large size!

Athleisure? Fashion or fitness fad? Fad, most fads are just that.

What is your workout and fitness secret to staying in shape? Consistency in healthy eating choices and working out plus my active job gets a lot of the credit.

What’s on your workout playlist music wise? To be honest, I just listen to the gym music

Fave music? Currently I’m loving all the new alternative music. 

What advice would you give to women aspiring to get into modeling? Trust your instinct about yourself and your image. Be unique and original and don’t listen to the critics. Having said that, I’m not a model, so this is just my opinion.
