“Also, you can’t go wrong with crisp Txakolina from Spain or Vinho Ver — Grace Mahary

"I need my sisters and younger sisters to go on social media and see this every day and not just see, I’m not going to say names, male leaders of the world. Because, that’s all that you do see,” Mahary said. “And, I need to see the first ladies’ work on social media.”"

"“Summer is upon us and I love trying funkier, skin-contact wines at this time of the year. Petillant naturel (naturally sparkling) and skin-contact Italian or Austrian grape blends are what I lean into during the warmer months, Also, you can’t go wrong with crisp Txakolina from Spain or Vinho Verde from Portugal to sip on a patio on a hot day.”"

"“To me, the role of a first lady, and any powerful woman for that matter, in helping the generation beneath us to come up, is not to stand in the way, it’s not to compete, it’s to facilitate, it’s to provide a bridge.”"

"“It shouldn’t take me having to go do all this and having a blue check by my name for people to take me seriously!”"

"“I’m very much of a hands-on type of person. I like to be on top of everything and enjoy watching a grassroots movement come to flourishing. I realized that Eritrea could use more financial aid, after visiting the country for the first time a couple of years ago,” the Canadian model whose parents immigrated from Eritrea shares, regarding her decision to start a charity of her own as opposed to joining an existing organization as an ambassador. “So I looked at this as an opportunity. Especially as an Eritrean woman,”"

"“After years of traveling the world and getting to visit all of these incredible places, I’d go to these fancy restaurants and be intimidated by the wine menu. I was tired of it!”"
