  • Balanced perspectives.

    I like how this show has balanced perspectives and views. There are some guest members that I don't fully agree with everything that they share and there are some that it would've been a terrible day for me if I didn't hear what they had to share that day. I love that the show is about actual real life situations that people go through and opening the door for resolution and change in peoples lives. This podcast was very helpful while I was going through a divorce a few years ago as well.

  • Professor Odi’s Episode is πŸ”₯

    I’ve tuned into at least 20 episodes and they have all been very informative. This episode in particular goes very deep into what it is that we as Black men need from others and need to do for ourselves. I want to start having conversations like these with the young Black men I work with in my community.

  • Necessary Conversations

    I listen to Express Yourself Black Man as a single mom raising a Black boy, and as a Black woman who still believes in love and marriage with a Black man. This podcast has been such a meaningful space to listen, learn, and better understand the experiences, emotions, and perspectives of Black men. It’s refreshing, honest, and necessary. I truly believe this is a great place for Black women who want to grow in how we support our Black men. Keep up the great work.
