In this episode, Grace Mitchell shares how her love for creating beautiful things started at a young age, how she handled intense setbacks and losses, fought for happiness, pursued her passions, and continues to make her family her main focus. She tells how she attempts to embrace the imbalance of life and enjoy it’s seasonality. Knowing that she could be consumed by her work, she always wants her family to be her number one priority. So Grace refuses to set goals but never stops dreaming. For a season after Grace would put her kids to bed, she would brew herself a pot of coffee, stay up for hours writing her blog, and teach herself interior design. From her home computer, her blog was quickly recognized and launched her design career. Through many twists and turns, Grace Mitchell now hosts her own show on HGTV, One of a Kind. Listen in to hear about the time her TV producer reached out to Grace Mitchell and she thought it was a prank, how a quadruple stroller gave her the ability to leave the house, and how for nine whole months, her family washed dishes in the bathtub.
