The business of influencing has changed a lot and Grace has been navigating those changes for 15 years. From Blogspot to Substack, affiliate links to brand deals, she’s built a full-fledged media brand by being transparent, trustworthy and having impeccable taste.

If you’ve ever wondered how the business really works, Grace is here to break it all down with a whole lot of candor.
