OMG, y’all...@KamalaHarris @AOC @sarahcpr...ME?!?

I’m so beyond honored (and feeling a little unworthy!) to be included in this round-up of women who changed 2020.

The power radiating off this article is FIERCE and I’m here for it. THANK YOU @shtelchi... https://t.co/QczEsqpGQl

You’re an inspiration and we are SO SO proud of you @melissablake

[Melissa Blake @melissablake]

I’m so grateful for everything I’ve been able to do, but receiving the Hometown Hero award from @949WDKBDeKalb feels extra special. I grew up listening to this radio station and I’m proud to be from DeKalb! No matter where I go, I’ll forever be a small-town girl from the Midwest.
