“When I get a job, I make sure others eat from that blessing because I never want to be selfish. I never want my blessing to just be for me,” she explained. “Because, you know, it just means so much to me that every day, I am entrusted with this responsibility to make people feel, you know what I mean? And I don't want to be selfish with that.”
