To truly "influence" somebody is to help them grow while you grow. This podcast is a group of binge-able series that cover my experiences living, learning, and meeting people in New York City. Occasionally I bring on guests who provide unique perspectives around shared experiences or topics that I’m interested in. Join me as I’m on the go, looking to GROW. And who knows, you might find yourself growing in the process too 😉 Feel free to interact with me via email or my IG DMs (@bygracelee) and you may even find your interactions surface up on some of the episodes.
