Perhaps she said 'aspirational' because that's what she meant?

Aspirate is when something goes down the wrong way and you choke. Maybe she did mean that

That's one meaning of it. Another meaning is "a strong desire to achieve something great." Aspirational is the adjective form of that. So it is quite possible she said exactly what she meant.

when you have an aspiration to do something, like, what you aspire to be when you're older.
Makes perfect sense

What's the point of making such a pointless thread

Cheap shot to put her down, the word could still work.
