Purple is my favorite color. It makes me think of spring and summer. A purple dress, eating grapes, lilacs - I love purple.

A lot of people want to start a business, and they're like, 'I wanna start a business, give me some money to invest.' Where is your business plan? Are you investing money yourself into your own business? How is this going to work? People think that they can just come to you with an idea and have money.
I think in general the Zoom interviews are harder because of the slight delay and then trying to jump in and ask questions can be more difficult.
I started my career as an assistant for Wu-Tang Clan, then transitioned into urban marketing.
I love Brooklyn so much. Everything I do I try to do in Brooklyn. Brooklyn is my home base.
I used to drink soda everyday, Hi-C everyday, and Hawaiian punch. That's how I grew up in Brooklyn.
Juicing is a social thing.
Brooklyn has a strong, historic relationship with both music and basketball, and I look forward to working with BSE Global to find new ways to deepen and celebrate that relationship within our community.
I started off on 'The Cipha Sounds Effect' on Sirius. The whole station was just very male-dominated.
When I first started at Sirius, I was the only woman on the whole station.
Society makes victims feel that they put themselves in a compromising position and therefore share in the responsibility of being violated.
The good thing about radio is that it's the kind of career that really is a career with longevity. It's something you can do as long as you want to do.
When we first started 'The Breakfast Club,' we wanted to have a video person dedicated to filming our interviews and sending out content. I think having video clips that could go viral, or get picked up by media outlets, helped us get syndicated, because people in other cities were familiar with us from having seen our videos.
I have to prioritize and learn how to sometimes say 'no,' even when there might be a good opportunity. That means turning down a check or a potential relationship, or sometimes letting someone down who you are close with.
I'm not into revenge anymore, I just let go and let God.
I stay away from caffeine. I've never even tried coffee.
There's a stigma about reality shows and the people who star in them. Reality shows mean your career will end, your marriage will be cursed, you have to fight and/or throw a drink, or you're going to end up broke and a has-been when the series ends.
You're more powerful when you are working with other women, when you're helping other women out, when you're going to them for mentorship; we are all beneficial to each other.
It's important to have a good sense of style that sets you apart, so you're not just forgotten after somebody meets you.
I'm so used to getting up at 4 A.M. for work that sleeping 'til seven on a Sunday feels like sleeping in to me. So that's what I do.
Sunday is the day I do my laundry and clean. I'm always trying to get rid of stuff. Truthfully? I have a housekeeper that comes once a month, and I tend not to make things too messy for her. But I do have clothes everywhere.
I love Tina Turner.
Sundays are the one day of the week I might cook for myself.
My whole thing is this - and this is how I am in real life - if you start talking to me crazy, I'm not engaging in that. I'm just not saying anything.
Longevity is a big deal.
Work is important, but so is my health.
Ever since I was young, I've been the person who people come to when they need to vent or get an opinion. Even my friends' parents would ask me for advice. I'm very practical and non-judgmental.
I never expect someone to work with me forever. I want to give you the experience needed so that when it is time to pursue what you want to in life you are ready.
If someone works with me, I try to take them to the next level.
As a Brooklynite, this borough holds a special place in my heart, and I'm excited to represent BSE Global and identify opportunities that elevate our community to new heights.
A lot of women feel like they put their ambitions on hold sometimes because they do hold down the household and that's something that has to change.
Women feel like they have to choose. Am I going to have a career or am I going to have kids and that's not a decision that men have to make.
I've had to deal with racism, sexism, rumors, malice, a little bit of everything.
I've seen people 'turn up' for the camera, thinking that this is the best way to maximize their platform and get more camera time. This formula works, but it's shortsighted.
After working over 8 years in radio to build my brand, I would never want to misrepresent myself.
After a full morning working on 'TBC,' I don't feel like talking to any guys for a few hours.
K. Michelle was the worst guest for me.
You have to be nice to everybody, regardless of their position because you never know - they could be the next David Geffen. David Geffen started in the mailroom. Treat everybody the same.
Generally, I think what guys do is they get your number, because if I interview you on my show we can exchange information and I don't have a problem with that. But I think sometimes people are nervous to say things to me because they don't know if I'll blow them up on the air.
Always look nice because you never know who you'll run into that you have to leave an impression on.
There are definitely challenges that come with being the only woman in any room, and on a show like 'The Breakfast Club,' with strong opinions, it can be hard to get the guys to see things from my point of view.
I've always wanted to be a writer ever since I was in kindergarten, so that was ultimately what I wanted to do with my life.
I'm not a shock jock at all.
I like when I do interviews with an artist and they may not have liked an artist at first but after they see my interview they'll like them better.
I love doing interviews but yeah, I hope to have a long career like Wendy Williams, like Angie Martinez has or just a lot of people in radio that I look up to. Howard Stern has had a really long career.
I've always had to make sure I pay my blessings forward.
I do believe that when you are a good person, good things will happen to you.
I don't think safe is the way if you want to make history.
Bigger risk equals bigger reward.
Atlanta is a huge part of the music scene and a large part of Hollywood now.
