Colette Van Paemal

I am Alicia Coppola. I am an actress, author of Gracefully Gone (on Amazon...shameless plug), wife, mother of 3, chef, laundress, and maid. But who I really am is a Bootstrap Bitch. With grit, tenacity and never give up attitude, I have pulled myself up by my bootstraps more times than I can count. I have never had anything come easy, neither have my guests. The matter is not how many times we fall... but rather, how many times we get right back up. We are all in this together and we can help lift up one another. After all…We who pull our- selves up by our bootstraps don't bitch...we do.
