YES!!!! So important to stand up to bullies. In my experience, they pick those of us who shine a little brighter than the rest because they're jealous on some level. I don't understand why chefs for some reason tend to be such terrible people sometimes. Good for you!! You are beautiful and no one has a right to tell anyone they don't have what it takes. You are amazing <3

A good reminder to keep going, especially when they tell you that you don’t have what it takes to be in the kitchen. Thank you ❤

What happened to the Moth Radio Hour videos? I still love your content so much, ❤ but I loved those especially, since they were longer and contained more stories in one video.

How can people deny to you what you know is and has always been true? Thank you for believing in yourself, so we could listen to your testimony today 💪🌸🫡
