The mother of the Syracuse signee, Kiyan Anthony, shared about her childhood, jobs she did, and more. With the 43-year-old's multiple jobs in the past, she stated that she loved working at Atlanta's famous radio station, Hot 97.5, the most. Furthermore, the host, Vivian Tu, also talked about Anthony getting an unpaid internship at the company:

"I needed the money but but I had so many other jobs so I was like, "This is actually cool." Being around hip-hop and music that I love. Imagine at 16 you're meeting like your favorite rapper, your favorite R&B singer, you're okay with not getting paid for that. I was like "I don't care, I want to be here for free just to be around it," said Anthony. (Timestamp: 3:51)

The unpaid internship did turn into a paying job:

Anthony continued, "And then, ultimately, the internship turned into a paid job, which was the greatest blessing."

Tu also asked Anthony about how she determines whether an unpaid opportunity will help her in the long run:

"I think it's about what you do with it. If it's unpaid but you're learning a skill, you're learning a trade to then go out and get a job in that field, then it all makes sense," Anthony said before giving her example. "I was interning at a radio station and learning everything about radio to ultimately be on the radio, so it made sense for me" (Timestamp: 4:20)
