Thank you to everyone that supported Gracewood! Demo Day 2026 is in the books ✅🎉 We didn’t walk away with a check, but we did walk away with connections, great conversations, and so many ways to keep growing!
Special shout out to my husband Evan-Tarence Lauchie' for being willing to be Mr.Gracewood and help me from beginning to end throughout the day. Also shout out to my sister Layah Lauchie for getting me a coney dog when I was starving and for all the convos in between judging as I was working out my nervousness 😂 My bestfriend Lizzy Ade was watching all the way from Minnesota ❤️ My parents in love for holding it down with the kids lol Eva Lauchie Tarence E. Lauchié and so many of my amazing friends were praying and sending encouraging words LaShaunda S. Glasper Aaliyah Brianne 💗 Sharalle Ankrah Ashley Wright La’ren Patrice and SO many others!!
My village is truly mighty, and my dreams are made stronger through each of them. Grateful is an understatement ❤️
