This was heartfelt. The woman showed her soul, was real and pure in her being. Showcasing the truth through her music & her philosophy of life was the perfect combination

This could’ve been me if I didn’t have narcissistic parents that wouldn’t let me pursue my dreams. Girl get it! You’re incredible!

Don't hate the people who can swim. If you want to learn ..other than shink ..only you can do it. Just watched a film with no words . Check it if u can . No one will save you . Just remember there's always some one worse. Just try

TED, please fix the video description. Jessie turned her losses to wins. She and her talk, complimented with her songs, are indeed an inspiration for others to do the same. So, lets keep the magic going by flipping the words. And, if AI magic was used, best to fix the bot as well.

This live version is my absolute favourite. Could listen to it on repeat all day.

Far too arrogant.

@lenorasegura

This is my favorite live performance by her. I keep coming back to this video. The first song “STILL C U” is truly the best/my favorite and so good! 💯

Totally f'ing profound & true. Life is what we make it... No matter our age, race or circumstances. Life will always push us forwards whether we accept or resist. Through it all our lives will be profoundly changed. True no matter the vehicle of that profoundness. We have the choice. Through crap we are given gifts to glean. I happened on this video with Jesse's song, it was confirmation for me... I'm on the path that has catapulted me here, to healing and my life. That I can be happy wherever I am in my life... And count it all blessings and joy.
