    When you said “Grace. You booked it” I immediately started crying as if those words were being uttered to me. Praise Jesus! God knows I can’t wait for my agent to tell me I booked my dream job.

    "What is for you is not gonna miss you" just uplifted my spirit because I'm watching this video right after a complete emotional and mental breakdown. Panic attack and the works.

    Hope you get better. I suffer from panic attacks too. During this time, find a hobby, ex out toxic people, Get rest, eat well and relish is the moment. Sometimes life gets the best of us in intervals.

    I had the pleasure of meeting you in Chicago on August 15th, 2015 at a Birch Box event. I asked to take a picture of you and you were so sweet and insisted that I get in the picture with you. You have the most purest energy. Your light is soooo bright. That was the first picture on my IPhone at the time. I’ve upgraded phones, but still have the picture🥰. I’m so happy that you’ve done so well in life.
