The first time i listened to Black Girl Heals Podcast I was a bit overwhelmed because at the time I had left a toxic situationship.. I needed to listen to this podcast because I learned how to navigate my new journey of self love and happiness! So glad I came across this podcast! I encourage my friends and family to also listen.. Love ❤️

I really love take podcast. She is so insightful and I love how she dissects her points and encourages the listeners to lean into what you want. I needed this podcast, I’m so grateful.

Real ppl. Real stories. Real help!! There is always an episode that’s relatable and that really resonates. This episode hit home but was the confirmation I needed, after losing my mom just 3 months ago.

Love this podcast !

I’m glad I found this podcast. It has made me think about the things I need to work on and to take action. Listen to this podcast! Hands down will make you want to keep listening.

Great podcast…concise & informative!

I enjoy the topics but also the ease of receiving the message. As my hearing is not very strong, it helps. Thank you and keep educating us all

I stumbled on this podcast after finding Therapy for Black Girls and I found myself loving how, for lack of a better word, unpolished it is. I love that she talks to you like you are someone she met out and about instead of it feeling like a production. She is real and open and allows herself to be human and make mistakes in real time. For some reason I find myself companioning certain episodes with my therapy to feel like I can receive the message. I’m sure that drives my therapist crazy but it helps me. I feel less alone with some of the subjects and her retreats are the only ones that I have considered going to even with my social anxiety. You are doing the work and I couldn’t be more grateful. Also, your son is adorable!!! I saw him on your YouTube the other day LOL.

Thank you for this episode. I thought I was going crazy until you validated every single thing I went through. Thank you thank you thank you.

I really like when she gets to the point. Currently listening to #160 and it took like 35 min of ads and her talking about a completely unrelated topic to get to the point of the actual episode. Kinda hard to process her message with all of the jargon in between.

I am so grateful for your strength and determination to get out of your relationship and have the courage to share it here exactly as you have. I feel so seen. Thank you for helping me heal.

Either I didn’t understand or I don’t agree….either way, I appreciate this podcast. I take what I need and leave what I don’t. :)

So many podcasts and self help books just scratch the surface. Not this one! The host is very intentional about getting to the root and going DEEP. Thank you, Shena!!! I find myself listening to certain episodes over and over again, just to hear someone finally say what I’ve been feeling all my life. Definitely recommend this podcast. Particularly for Black women who grew up in the church and were taught to repress their feelings in so many ways. The love avoidant and love deprivation discussions have been LIFE CHANGING and EYE OPENING. So grateful for this resource. UPDATE: Unfortunately, I had to downgrade my rating. I can’t take the Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) ads anymore. At first I thought they were just a fluke or mistake by the producer, but I kept hearing them in each episode and they are so jarring to my soul and spirit. I wrote Sheena and I have yet to hear from her… yet the ads continue. I have undocumented friends. Their lives matter. And the horrors that they and their loved ones continue to experience, especially here in Texas at the hands of these modern day “slave catchers” is unfathomable. But go off. In honor of my loved ones, I can no longer support a show funded by the dang U.S. CBP.

For those of us who can’t figure out “what’s wrong”. Shena gives voice to what is not working and offers relatable solutions with grace. She is a gifted healer and content is well put together. Not to detract, I can’t help but notice that some content creators come off a little callous when talking about ending contact with family and other relations. A She is most mindful, balanced and realistic while giving (tough) love.

So needed

The last 11 years of my life has been 2 marriages to low level and high level narcissist I am in need of deep therapy and this podcast is really helping me 🩷

I stumbled upon Shena’s podcast at a time when I needed it the most. Her episodes are so practical and supportive and remind me constantly as if I’m talking to the big sister I always needed. Thank you for such relevant content and applicable advice!

My sister passed this episode on to me, although I don’t have any lit kids. I understand why she sent it! This episode hit me so HARD, I could not breathe (literally)! I have a yo-yo husband; I feel like I’m on a rollercoaster sometimes. His emotions are like woo whee & sometimes I feel like he love me but don’t like me! I just want to thank @_Jasminechanelle for sharing her story! God blessings be w/you and your kids and your ex 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😇

I have never taken the time to write a review in the 8+ years I’ve been listening to podcast, however after listen to the married but single episode and let me just say…. REAL!

Started listening to this podcast by chance and browsing. I am just thankful because I was praying for God to show me Me! Love addiction was totally me! I’m so thankful for BGH!

I know podcasts do not replace traditional therapy but I have learned so much about myself since I’ve started listening. In the very first few podcasts, I learned exactly why I am the way that I am. Particularly the episodes on love avoidant/addict personalities meant a lot. It kinda helped me pinpoint exactly where in life I went into self preservation mode. This podcast gave me the push to seek therapy to unpack and heal. Thank you so much.

Girl I love your podcast !! I knew it in the first 5 minutes !!! It’s so relatable and therapeutic!!! Appreciate you !!! Keep it coming !! ❤️❤️❤️

I absolutely love your content and understand more about myself from listening to your tips. how to Apologize episode hit home for me I’m many ways! Thanks Queen!

I absolutely love this podcast! It’s been such a great find and I can’t express enough how much listening to this podcast helps me in my life. Thank you for sharing your insights and knowledge with us.

I just listened to the Mother Enmeshed Man episode #189 and was floored. All this time I was seeing the signs of this in my relationship and didn’t know what it was. Thank you for explaining what it is and being gentle to the mom’s who want to change.

I’ve needed this podcast! And I’m so glad I discovered it last night. I’m ready to let the healing journey begin.

One of best podcasts

I found BGH about a year ago when I was in a really low place, and I have since become an avid listener and a much more healed black girl. I even lucked up to find my therapist through the podcast’s resources. What I really love about BGH, is the depth Sheena goes into different familial and romantic relationship topics. The episodes are always packaged in love, grace and tactful realness, which are all thoroughly appreciated. This show is hands down UNMATCHED. I’m learning so much and try to share with everyone I can. Thank you so much Sheena!

It’s so hard to find a black Women podcast that actually talks about healing and not astrology, gossip and men . This podcast ACTUALLY talks about healing . I’m hooked

As a love avoidant SHENA BE IN MY BUSINESS! Lol I feel understood and enlightened gifted with more tools to enrich the quality of my life and relationship with each episode. THANK YOU!

I just so happen to stumble across this podcast And been hooked every since . Either in the morning or throughout the day I’m listening. Even when I think no I cannot relate to this episode but ima listen anyways and it turns out to be so relatable anyways. I’ve learned so much And continue to learn something new every time I listen.

I listening to this show I look forward to new episodes a faithfully listen. It has given me hope that I don’t always have to have drama in my relationships and that people could love and support me without all the nonsense and drama. While still a work in progress I fell I on my way to becoming my best version of my self

This podcast has helped me out so much ! I started from episode one and haven’t stopped listening since Thank you so much Shena you helped me to get up and actually WANT to get help and change my life as well as my mindset .🥹♥️

I love this podcast, I look forward to them faithfully! You have helped me so much through my healing journey, each time I listen to an episode it’s so relatable to me and my own personal process! Thank you for always being the person I can count on to validate my feelings and navigate through them in a positive way! Thank you for teaching me how to truly love myself and that sometimes it is ok to not be ok, you are great at what you do!

I am so grateful for these discussions and your ability to help name things that I am feeling as a listener. It feels even better to be apart of community of women who look like me who may have similar experiences. I love listening to podcast like this that help encourage my growth and evolution. this healing journey has been amazing, thank you and your platform for adding to that!

Every time I listen to you whatever episode I listen to fits the exact moment in my life! God really appoints me I your direction. I’m just appreciative that you exist and that you created this thoughtful podcast to really help us out here! Stay blessed!

This podcast is the safe shake that we all need. It is so edifying yet relatable. The content is always relevant and while I feel read, I also feel empowered to change. Thank you for reminding us that we deserve the best and how to cultivate that self. Definitely recommends

I started my healing journey end of last year after going through it all and finallyyy wanting to heal and let go, my therapist recommended podcast instead of certain music while driving or if I didn’t want to read. Each episode there is a Lesson even if you have not went through it its still something to be aware or something to learn from. At the most recent episode I am listening to “Dealing with Betrayal …” I just had to pause and right a review and say THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! I listen so some episodes over and over so that it resonates or just so that I can affirm what resonates.. You are the best Shena -Forever Listener

I absolutely love this podcast. I’m at a different season in my journey and this podcast has really opened up a lot of things I would’ve never been able to work through and process on my own being that I didn’t know where to start. I listen while I’m getting ready for work, after meditation, or even on a drive in the car.

I don’t care what anyone says, Shena is my one & only therapist at the moment. No, we have never meet lol. But I feel so close to her & understood. She Is everything. I have been listening to her for almost a year and I’m so glad I came across her. She is the only podcast I keep up with because of how much she helps me and has helped me in the past. I can’t wait to follow her into whatever she does next. Im excited for her. She deserves everything she has built. Im so proud of her. Thank you Shena.

This was exceptional. I have listened to this show 3x’s. It’s the first show I have ever listened to and it speaks volumes to me. I love your transparency. Thank you

I’m a black woman who’s been on her healing journey for more that two years now. I’m always adding invaluable tools to my war chest :) listening to Shena feels like talking to a loving friend who only has your best interest in mind. She’s definitely an expert in this work. I’ve been listening for awhile and have incorporated some tools into my daily walk. I’ll be taking the next step to join the healing track.

I personally just wanna thank you for opening my eyes. I tear up listening to your podcast (to the ones that resonate) and i learn so much that it’s opening my eyes and my heart. i love this podcast, from one future therapist to another, thank you💘

Im always looking forward to the next session given. This podcast’s has changed my life and my approach towards the ones I love.

I have to note this is the first time I’ve ever reviewed a podcast, but I feel obligated after everything I’ve received from this podcast and its host. I’ve yet to hear anyone else speak about self-love and relationships and healing in such a way as is done here. Thank you for creating this.

Every episode has a gem or takeaway in it; even when the host goes into her own reflections upon every anniversary as a counselor. I look forward to every new episode!

I love that this show gives us the tools and encouragement that we need to heal and become more whole versions of ourselves as black women!

Thank you so much for this episode. As a Life Coach myself, this was definitely needed.

Can you see me…I think so🤎 I struggled with being a perfectionist didn’t even realize it until this episode right here🤯

And lately she’s had some real hot takes on emotional intelligence and well-being. Needed for the black community and black families. This podcast has given me so much perspective. Please listen.
