“I honestly don’t live for awards, I hardly attend award ceremonies, keep plaques or fuss about recognition, I am just thankful for growth in my career, I’m thankful for the opportunities in the last decade to make a mark, to even have a chance to impact my world, to grow from Radio to Television, Vlogging, writing a book, becoming a bankable influencer, partnering with multiple brands and creating amazing content, acting, launching multiple businesses, and staying relevant even in the face of adversity,” she said.
