Music

Every artist in the world dreams of performing at the Grammys. Since I was a kid, I had been manifesting it, and two years ago, it happened. I was invited to perform with my favorite singer, John Legend.

I actually didn’t know what I was in for until about five days before the show. I couldn’t believe it when the CEO of the Grammys called and invited me to sing. I was in shock, but I was also exhausted. It all happened after cancer, a failed IVF attempt, and just as the war in Ukraine had begun. I performed, but mentally, I wasn’t ready for any of it.

After the performance, I wanted to hide and not respond to anyone. I ended up losing my voice for a month, too. My point is that our mental health and overall well-being are incredibly important. If either is struggling, we’re not truly ready to enjoy our dreams when they become reality. That’s why I will always be the biggest advocate for mental health.

Please take care of yourself—so when your dreams come true, you’re ready to enjoy them!

my best friend @mikanewton had the incredible opportunity to perform at the Grammys. Please take a moment to read her story 🫂🤍
