[@SonjaMelton]

Thank you for taking us along with you to Essence. I was telling my fiancee I have never been and pray I can go next year.

I have literally seen your pretty face in almost every content creator's Essence Festival video I've watched. I totally overlooked the fact that you hadn't dropped yours! I SCREAMED when it popped up! I have enjoyed watching you Celebrate and Thrive with your peers. ❤ I can't wait to see you take on New York Fashion Week!

I drank my water with Gatorade Zero drink packets during Essence this year. I kept a few in my purse so I could pop them into my water when we had brunch or dinner. I didn't drink alcohol or coffee at all. I was so happy to have coffee on Monday morning 😂 You looked great for every event.
