00:06
But come on girl. I'm from the south. That's what we do
00:13
What's the last thing I said no to
00:16
Well, I said no to a job recently. It was an exciting job, but the role didn't fit where I stand and
00:25
a lot of times
00:26
You got to choose
00:28
purpose over commerce
00:30
values and morality
00:31
Over what you think the professional thing is and again one the bad job at all great people would love to work with him any day
00:37
On something else just wasn't the right avenue for me
00:40
What's the last comment on social that triggered me? Do you have the time?
00:44
Oh, you know it was it was today when they tried to say that Elon Musk had nothing to do with the doge crap
00:51
When they told everybody that he was the one doing the doge crap
00:56
So I and they blamed a woman for everything that's going wrong, so
01:02
What's the last compliment that caught me off-guard
01:06
Mmm, so I get a lot of compliments about like how I look you're gorgeous. You're beautiful as in cuz look at the material, right?
01:16
But somebody
01:17
complimented my
01:19
My essence my energy, which is something that I think I work so hard to
01:25
Make good like I want people to feel good energy when they experience me and so somebody
01:30
Complimented yesterday at the airport a actually like I love your energy
01:33
I love the aura that you're carrying and I didn't even have I didn't even talk to her
01:36
So I think that was a compliment that caught me off guard because the airport is so stressful so that was it
01:43
My favorite turn-up song and why oh
01:47
Anything Glorilla sings I
01:50
Mean, I'm just gonna turn up to it like she's from the south. She's from Tennessee. I'm from Florida. I love her voice
01:56
I love how she just I love her vibe
01:59
I love the depth of her voice, and she just makes me want to just vibe like yeah glow. I feel that
02:06
Yeah, okay, God. Please don't let this sabotage me and embarrass me. Okay. What oh?
02:12
What's the last thing I said no to
02:16
The last thing I said no to was going out to an event y'all sometimes
02:21
I just got to stay in the house the caregiver and me is like you know what I'm just gonna sit up here with my
02:27
Mama, I am her caregiver
02:28
And you only get one mama and this time has been so precious that I've had to spend with her
02:33
