Tierra expresses her excitement in the post's caption:

"Never thought I’d be performing on the same stage as this woman! She is the sweetest person, her energy was sooo amazing and she was so humble!!! I would say that WE had a great conversation but SHE did most of the talking! (I was too busy trying not too panic)."

The gushing continues: 

“I pray that god keeps on blessing me and making all of my dreams come true! I hope that I am inspiring someone out there because for the first time I can honestly say that I am inspiring myself!!! (i still can’t believe I didn’t drop dead) I AM THE LIVING PROOF THAT ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE !!!"
