Heather’s Review:
If you need a little inspiration, this is the show for you. Octavia Spencer is one of my all-time favorite actresses, and this has to be one of my favorite projects that she’s done. Imagine starting at the very bottom and being told you weren’t ever going to be anything more — and then proving every single person wrong. I loved this one so much that I watched it a second time with my teenager. It’s a beautiful message of perseverance and girl power!
I give Self Made: Inspired by the Life of Madam C.J Walker on Netflix 4.5 out of 5 stars.
