“Getting it right the first time is not something I always do. In fact, even when I record ‘Yetta Raw & Reel’ I trip on my words, and what I’ve learned is that as long as I am present with you, and thinking about what you are going to get from this, that is the point. Why put myself out there? It’s because others have put themselves out there for me, and caused me to be able to live a life that’s more significant, more fulfilling and more intentional than it would have been without them. I believe I’m to do the same thing. When I trip on my words, I don’t apologize. I recognize that it’s part of the human existence; part of being real, so why edit it all out and make it perfect when that’s not really the real gig? I’m here to be real with you, I’m ok with you seeing my mistakes, and tripping on my tongue, and putting it all back together again, and I encourage you to be real with others in your life.”
