You might recognize this week's guest, Melissa Hinnant, from Shark Tank when she landed a deal with Barbara for her business, Grace & Lace.

Melissa's story is one of redemption as she allowed God to turn her tragedy into a triumph that is blessing not only her family but 70 plus employees as well as thousands of customers daily!

Here are a few things we chatted about:

• How Grace & Lace was birthed out of the tragic loss of her first daughter
• How she encourages others to not waste their pain.
• The mission of Grace & Lace
• Why she calls Grace & Lace her "accidental company"
• Her experience on Shark Tank
• What it's like working with Barbara
• How she "balances" being a wife, mom and business owner
• Her greatest fear as a business owner and how she overcomes it.

Melissa was so kind as to offer Real Talk with Rachael listeners a special code to shop at www.graceandlace.com.
