Listen, we were finally able to get you in the studio. I'm so excited to have you here. So Yandy, you don't know this, but I used to write for your magazine back in the day, Everything Girls Love. Yes. |
| 1:11.6 | Stop it! |
| 1:12.6 | I was a right up way back one. |
| 1:13.6 | So this is a full circle moment. I'm excited to have you here. I'm glad to be here. And look at this. I know, right? You didn't even know. So I wrote for EGL. We are connected in that way. I'm still very much connected. You had so many great people that were a part of the magazine, the team, the staff. I'm still very much connected to a lot of the |
| 1:31.4 | people. So thank you for that opportunity because a lot of connections has come from that. |
| 1:36.0 | Yes, EGL was such an amazing start to kind of my foot in media. I had no idea what I wanted |

| 1:45.5 | And I also wanted to create a community of some women that had things to say. So I'm so happy |
| 1:50.3 | here. You were part of it. Yes, yes. I loved that. I love the mission, the platform. |

| 2:17.7 | It's either I don't ever want to go there or I don't ever want to leave. What did you not? I feel, and I'm on the hated side. I feel like it's so hard. It's such a hard life in my opinion. I've never lived there. But when I go, you've never lived there. Y'all got the bodega thing, the walk into the train, the riding of the train. |
| 2:36.2 | So that's the riding of the train. |
| 2:36.0 | So that's the easy thing for me. I would love to be able to come out my house, walk down a couple feet, and be at the bodega. Girl, it's not a couple feet. I have to get in a car.
