Fix virtualenvwrapper Error with Python Anaconda Installation - Mac OS X Terminal

Getting this Mac OS X terminal message when using virtualenvwrapper with Anaconda Python installation? /usr/bin/python: No module named virtualenvwrapper. virtualenvwrapper.sh: There was a problem running the initialization hooks. If Python could not import the module virtualenvwrapper.hook_loader, check that the virtualenvwrapper has been installed for VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/bin/python and that PATH is set properly. My solution is in the video with the resources I reference in the video below.
