Reflecting on this transformative journey, Grace said, "I held onto that hope even with the trials and some public unfortunately, and because of the years of just not knowing any better, I was jaded and damaged so I hardly saw him as that at first. So I still held back. I didn’t give of myself but slowly he won his way into my heart, and it melted, you know that feeling ladies. Yeah, for the first time in my life, I felt safe, I felt seen, and I felt heard. For me, that’s very important to exist in that environment.”
