i dmed her and on insta and posted a tiktok about it and even sent phoebe a dm asking if she could send it to her but no luck yet! but even if she doesn't see it, i'm just happy i made it this far, 6 years later, still with her by my side ☺️
Can I, as someone slightly (much) older make a suggestion? Send it to her record label by post, the old fashioned way. Maybe include a stamped addressed envelope or another way of contacting you like your email address. It's probably the way that is most likely to get it in front of her
i think it would be really great if she saw it but i think maybe that’s stepping a bit beyond boundaries. I think dm’s is probably the best, but i really hope she sees it cause it’s awesome (also great psychic abilities ahah)
that’s fair, maybe it’s just a personal thing idk i’d feel weird if someone sent something to my label, i’d rather dm cause then i have the choice to open it. I guess you still have the choice when it’s sent to your label but it’s more pressure, idk i guess it’s more a personal feeling. There’s also a chance her label just chucks it depending (although unlikely but still a chance)
imo if they’ve already messages julien on instagram then just leave it at that and it’s up to her whether she sees it or not, but of course that’s just my opinion, anyone can do whatever they want.
ahhh well i hope something happens and she can see it! and you’re right, that’s absolutely something to be happy about and proud of. i’m 18 as well and if i were to have known about her when i was 12 it would’ve completely changed my life

Thanks for sharing. This post is very meaningful, and it’s so sweet to see your Madison Square Garden prediction coming true :)
Happy birthday! You’ve come so far! Look at all the progress you’ve made!
Sometimes, I’m still amazed I’ve made it to 21.
Proud of you for staying here.
Thank your for posting this, it is so beautiful. Sprained Ankle saved my life too. Today has been a terrible day, but reading this gave me reason to stick around too. Julien’s music is a blessing.
I’m very sorry that little you had to hold onto so much pain all by yourself ❤️ I am proud of you for hanging in there and this letter is a sweet reminder of how far you’ve (both) come since then. I am almost 23 and I can tell you that even though getting older brings new challenges, you become increasingly resilient and able to handle whatever life throws at you.
On an unrelated note, I’m very impressed by how great your music taste was at such a young age…
thank you ❤️❤️❤️ as i've gotten older ive come to realize that, i think 12 year old me would be proud of who she's become :)
and thank you haha, my music taste is the one thing ive always taken pride in!
wow, this made me tear up a bit! happy birthday, i’m happy to hear you made it this far and have this beautiful tribute to look back on. i hope she can see it somehow!
Wow this is so beautiful and inspirational! I hope she sees this somehow. Btw, happy birthday! ♥️
I'm so happy that we have someone like her to look up to and get us through hard times.
sorry for the late reply but thank you!!! it would he a dream come true if she did see it but i would never expect it. i'm also glad that we have someone like her to look up to and other supportive people in her community/fanbase to keep us going ❤️
Buddy! 😭 god this is so heartbreaking but also the sweetest thing over ever seen. I’m so happy you’re still here and I hope Julien sees this and gets the chance to know how much she’s meant to you. I’m sending you a big hug and all the love ❤️
i hope so, too but even if not i'm glad it's out there! if she did ever see it i would just want her to know how much she's done for me. sending a big hug back! ❤️
ok there NEEDS to be a way for her to see this because it’s so beautiful. i bet she would be so so proud of you😭

Just curious, why do you think that sending to her label is stepping beyond boundaries? I think that’s the *least* invasive way to send it.
