“Even when I was presenting I worked damn hard behind the scenes ... Love me or hate me but no-one will ever steal the amount of time, energy and dedication I have committed to my craft. That is why I'm uber proud of my nine SAFTA nominations, three SAFTA wins and international Emmy nomination.”
In a chat with TshisaLIVE two years ago after her hiatus, Brenda explained that she believed everything that happened in her life and career worked out in her favour.
“I think the spiritual journey and being away has helped me to value people, to value the small moments. It has been amazing to realise just how much people are willing to help you and how much they care about you when you think that nobody cares.
