<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1877640/open_sms">Send us a text</a>🎙️ Season One, Episode Two: @Jacqui.Grace steps back into the spotlight with a candid conversation about growth, healing, and hustle. Since her last appearance, she’s shifted from covers  nights to showcases with her own music including the release of her single “Morning Sex.” Jacqui dives deep into the pressure of unsolicited advice, the weight of depression, and the discipline it took to block out distractions and level up her craft. The episode highlights her major opportunity with Rolling Stone and the Global Citizen Festival, her approach to manifestation, and the necessity of walking away from what no longer serves you. Through all of it, Jacqui remains grounded, driven, and intentional about honoring her journey.
