    I can not tell you enough how much watching your show touches my heart. I've always liked you as an actress but now that I watch your show and I see different interviews on CZcams of your self and your past I am honestly amazed at all you've overcame and accomplished in your life. I was a troubled teen and adult and I finally found the path to a positive life. I used to blame my mother for a lot of my life as you did but over time I let that go and I am glad because she passed a few years ago and I would never have been able to live with myself if she would have gone to heaven without knowing how much I loved her and that I finally understood the reasons behind her actions. I am now a mother and a wife and I see it's not easy and hard choices have to be made. I just want you to know that I am truly so grateful for you because I finally have a role model to look to. I dropped out of school at age 16. I had a ninth grade education for many years. In 2007 I went and I earned my GED, it's not easy let me tell you. In 2018 I went and earned my Associates Degree in Criminal Justice. My career now has nothing to do with my degree but, the fact that I earned them both makes me feel like a better parent because I showed my children its okay to mess up as long as you learn from it. PLEASE DO NOT EVER STOP BEING YOU. 😍😍

    In a brand new grocery store, I was there when it opened, a cashier technically but whatever they asked, I'd go in at 4am to stock, worked lottery, cashed paychecks, snowbirds wanting $ for expired food etc.Assistant mgr asked what my major was. I'm a dropout after completing the 10th grade. His face was shocked. "You seem so smart!' I AM smart!! You don't need a piece of paper to make you smart. He told me he & the manager wanted me to be a manager. I cashed their paychecks, knowing the hours they worked? 🤔

    Got my GED at 23 or 24, after years of outring it off! I just turned 41 and I have approximately two years of college credits, but I feel lost and like I'll never attain a college degree. Then, what do I do at 40-something!!!??
