    One of the greatest compliments to give am interviewer is "I loved your questions!" They were not formulaic - engaged and Present. The interviewer also seemed very organic in allowing the guest, Jenifer to finish full thoughts. Loved it...

    She is so gifted & so incredibly honest! Just caught her in "Jackie's Back" Movie. In the movie, Jackie, the Actress goes back to her hometown which is actually Jenifer's hometown. She is such an inspiration! This is an exceptional interview here. I enjoy being a part of the UT audience. Thanks. Best wishes to all. ❤❤❤

    I absolutely admire Jenifer Lewis. I can relate to her story on so many levels. I am so impressed with how she took her trauma and triumph. I was molested by my male babysitter and eventually diagnosed as bi-polar 2. I took refused to give up my edge by being medicated. At one point, I was given lithium and became a detached, emotion less and miserable person. I prayed and asked God not to leave me in this mental state. I wasn't sure if the effects of the lithium would wear off, but thankfully it did after several months.
