I love Jodie! She deserves her own sitcom. She is so naturally talented and funny. Thanks for this interview!

I’m glad I’m not the only ”female” that sometimes dreads a shower ESPECIALLY when I know I have to wash my hair!!! Which is every 3 days! 😩

I heard from John stamos, i believe, that she was the only one that remembered her lines and was always a super brilliant actress.

I didnt know she was that funny and friendly.I love her honesty and dealing with difficulties of life and it is ok to be imperfect.I could talk to her all day about anything.

Jodie’s very sweet and down to earth. It’s so very refreshing to see she’s not a typical “star” she’s way better as she’s not stuck up and very personable and very well rounded.
She has had a blessed life growing up the way she has and was surrounded by some other great talent.

I met John Stamos at Cobo Hall in Detroit back in the 80’s, he was very nice I got to hug and kiss his cheek, it was awesome! But the cast, they seemed so decent and I love Candace she’s not typical Hollywood. I have much respect for her and Jodie too!

I just got done watching a Hallmark Movie with Jodie, she played Candace Livingstone.! It was really good, and Jodie is such a beautiful young lady and great actress of course. I Love Hallmark Movies ❤ Jodie if you read this, I hope you do more Hallmark Movies 🍿🎥

It's the same in everyday life. When you grow up with your friends and they see you as "how you were in school" whatever that was for you and then you want to get serious, start a business and really commit to something different.... Friends & family could be your biggest discouragers and say things like "You can't do that" or "That's not gonna work for YOU" they are trying to protect you and they are trying to be kind (hopefully) but you almost have to move away, be around new ppl especially if you are trying to create a New 'you' that's committed, serious, hard working and you were non of that growing up. To recreate yourself many times that means stepping away from your comfort zone and step into the unknown but you can be anyone you want to be! It's the time to recreate that person you really want to be and hopefully it's a more honorable version of you!
Great interview! Jodie is ahmazzing 💙

That's what it did for me. I was 9-10. Parents just separated. Full house showed me that it was ok. That mom & I lived w/ Grammie and Gramps. It modeled what I needed to see. ❤ It taught 10 year old me that a non traditional home was ok. I always felt safe and loved. That's home to me. Thanks Full House. GenX me. Loved the reboot. Same concept.That a Non traditional home. Is a safe space/ place. 💖💖💖💖
