Shenequa Golding Talks 'A Black Girl in the Middle,' 'Black Girl Math,' BBL's, Relationships + More 

16:36 “This world doesn’t know how to interact with introverts without taking offense.” Powerful statement and I definitely agree. Such an authentic and beautiful interview and I believe so many black women will feel seen! 💛✨ Definitely purchasing.

I completely agree with how she broke down being an introvert.

Introverts United

This lady has found her calling for sure! She is beautiful inside and out. She is an introvert and so am I. She speaks very well, looks at everyone when she speaks. She speaks about dealing with extroverts at a distance and so do I. Read this book.

This is my first exposure to Ms. Golding. What a gem!! 🖤

She sounds like me. My friends are often offended by my need for alone time.

Great interview.. I was so bless to have both parents in the home growing up and my father was a strong Black man and my mom was a strong, nurturing Black woman!

Yeah, she speaks like an introvert, so Am'I. She seems like a nonconfrontational person. Just a calm, thought tone of conversation. The thing that's concerning is,.. introverts, we tend to isolate ourselves a lot.

She mailed that 100%. This world does not know how to interact with introverts without taking offense

I’m an extrovert and I don’t use people 😭. I respect my introverted friends by giving them space and going at their social pace. I also respect my fellow extroverts by exploring new places and experiences and talking about anything and everything lol!

Great interview: I purchased 3 copies for 3 very different but very important young Black women in my life. And I’ve sent the link for the book to the people I know with daughters who could gain from these essays.

A gorgeous natural sista❤

Great interview! I love that the fellas shared their experiences while listening as well. Shenequa shows wonderful conversation skills, humor, whit and great vibes. Gotta love an authentic soul when you see one ❤

Great interview. Thanks for introducing me to this author.

As an introvert, I truly enjoyed this interview. She is also low key funny 😂😂😂

I am such an introvert and felt the same way, when I would go to the clubs with my friends..

I Watched this interview once, listened to the audio book, and then watched this interview again. She’s a very thoughtful woman, she talks with grace and is learning to accept who she is. I learned about myself from reading her book.

Such a great interview! As a guy and person of color, much of what she said resonated on a deeper level, especially how we are perceived in the public and the importance a father figure. Definitely one of my favorite interviews and I have no doubts that her book will be a runaway success.

That " TWOooo" came out like a Kevin Hart " Dayum !! " .

A great watch. Such a gift of a woman. Thank You ❤

The HU homie! Congratulations Shenequa on your book!

Shenequa is phenomenal!!!

Maaaan this woman just broke down my entire life 😂 .. love it! I will definitely be buying this book

Great interview we all need this one !’n

Really enjoyed her honesty

She is as brilliant as she is gorgeous.. looking forward to reading her book.. always welcome a perspective even if it's not my own.. Keep shining Queen🌹🌹👑🌹🌹

She looks very good to say she is about to be forty . She looks much younger

She is soo stunning like omg!❤

Don’t agree with some of it but respect it

Yesss!!! This resonated so much ❤️❤️❤️thank you for having her on

22:58 black girl math in action. Because it's like " I said what i said, and i deemed it serious" 😂 I'll get this book on audio

This again was a great interview by the Breakfast Club. I enjoyed it and I am going to share it on my platform to inform Black girls and introverts who are often misunderstood. Ricardo Authenticity Rating for this podcast 10 out of 10. There is no magic to the rating. I’m just an attentive listener to the podcast and try to share my honest opinion. I call out things that are red flags. I’m not always right, but I’m not always wrong. I approach listening to podcasts as a chess player looking at different angles of understanding. I’m not trying to fail podcasters, but I’m interested in uplifting podcasts. Great job guys.

I love Shenequa and her interviews. Check out her interview with the cast of When they see Us, phenomenal

Shout out to Shenequa! We love a black woman who is true to herself. My message to her is: You are powerful and beautiful in your Essence without the revealing clothing and BBL. The God in you can be recognized. Thank you for being a role model for us Black Gworls ❤️

Powerful interview 💎 💎

N.V came thru with an AWESOME in-depth question (finally) 😁

Shalom, WAKE THAT MIND UP! Thanks for sharing this conversation with Shenequa Golding, her story is dope! She mentioned "men washing the dishes after dinner, taking out the trash etc." It brought memories, from a child, the first thing after eating breakfast/ dinner was to wash the dishes and clean the kitchen. I've been married for 33 years, washing dishes, taking out the trash, cleaning the house, as the man of my house, no problem. Shenequa Golding, thank you, kudos.

This was a very rich conversation, I will definitely purchase the book. Sometimes having the biological and/or stepfather in the home may create more pain and chaos. I think in many cases it may be a blessing in disguise when an unhealthy parent is not in the home. It is still a void nonetheless but only God knows what may have been avoided with their absence. Another point, My daughter prefers her ‘step’ father, (with no ill will towards her biological father) but he was not around since she was two years old, she has expressed to her dad (we don’t use the term step) that she has not felt a void like some women may feel because her ‘step’ dad occupied and filled that space so well she didn’t feel like there was a void in her life. Her father has never uttered “step” nor his family either and continues to provide for and give her unconditional love as his own biological daughters/her sisters. I guess it really depends on the person’s individual experience. I’ve read a book and listened to a profound Ted talk several years ago on the topic of introverts and their brilliance. However, I really enjoyed the way she shared her perspective on being an introvert it really resonated with me. 💎 I look forward to reading the book. #lifelonglearner. #lovetoread

Intelligence and beauty radiating from this woman!

The right people in your life can make you happy success and calm

This lady will make this interview go great!!!

She was feeling dat boi DJ Envy, you’ll ain’t peep the energy

Beautiful woman

This was great. I want to read this book!

Hey Shanequa , it’s been a long time. Congratulations on your success!

18:12 -woaah... #ShenequaGolding is so right!!!

Our community is messed up I’m tired of these conversations where black women and men have unhealed trauma. You can tell dating her would be tiresome. I agree with Envy do what you enjoy to do and focus on the joy. Stop worrying about did that person reciprocate or not. Not everyone is ready for marriage which does take work. If you not ready to put in that work then just enjoy dating or single life.

I like the interview

Just purchased in audible

Getting the book!

Love this woman ❤❤

she is gorgeous 🥰🥰🥰✨

Had to run this back!!!!

I love this interview, specially her her ora

This was a great episode! First time hearing about her. Can Men read and gain from the book as well?

Go Queen ❤

💚I love this young lady with every fiber of my being 💙 I clicked on this interview because I was like “who is this 28yr old BADDIE” ❤️ then as I’m watching the video I was impressed with her humility wisdom and humor 💜I wish her nothing but the best💚

Im considering buying this for my girl, but i want to say; there are GREAT Step-Fathers out here, i was raised by them.

13:25 is a real thing!!

Who else was waiting for envy one question 😂😂😂

I feel so seen rn!!❤

She’s beautiful 😊

LMAO.... OK GOD I HEAR YOU!!!! LET ME STOP DRAGGING MY FEET AND FINISH MY BOOK ABOUT GROWING UP CURVY IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY!!!! 😎

🔥

That's right, thank God for what ami respects beautiful music, enjoy it and God bless you, oh and always, greetings from the United States to the world, good night.

Great interview, you can tell DJ Envy doesn’t read shit 😂😂

“….with my soon to be 40 year old mind.” FORTY!? 40 isn’t old but sheesh…Where? 😍✨

The angry black woman stereotype is so annoying because why am i not allowed to experience emotion as just a human being. And its enforced from family, friends, accquaintances, etc. Its exhausting so now i just say what the hell i want to say. Receive it or not.

I hate that she felt she wasn’t pretty enough because of her butt, I think she is gorgeous and I hope people told her that growing up 💯

love us !

Don't blame them

Amen
