The radio legend sat down with Ferrari Simmons and BT to clear the air and keep it completely 100 regarding one of the most talked about shifts in media history, her decision to leave “The Breakfast Club.”

While the blogs were busy spinning rumors, Yee explained that her philosophy is rooted in a strategy most people are too afraid to try.

Yee revealed to the crew that she has always believed in the power of knowing when to walk away while a situation is still doing incredibly well. Usually, people wait until a bridge is burned, a contract is messy, or the ratings start to dip before they look for an exit. However, Yee explained that she prefers to make her moves while the momentum is at an all-time high. She shared that it is always better to exit while you are still at the top of your game rather than waiting for the fire to burn out.

Beyond the professional strategy, the conversation got deep when Yee touched on the personal cost of maintaining a legendary 12-year run. She was extremely candid about the grueling reality of those 4:00 AM wake-up calls and how the routine eventually began to make her daily life miserable.

Despite the fame, the influence, and the massive platform, Yee realized that her well-being had to come first. By choosing to step down while the show was still a cultural powerhouse, she was able to transition into full ownership and creative control with her own show, Way Up.

The biggest takeaway from Yee’s visit is that you shouldn’t wait for a situation to turn sour before you start your next chapter. If you are feeling unfulfilled even while you are winning, that might be the exact sign you need to pivot and bet on yourself.

Angela Yee is living proof that ownership and peace of mind are the ultimate flex.
