Amazing podcast that’s always enlightening! I agree with another review that said “..it’s like someone climbed into your head..”

I love the format. It evokes curiosity and almost feels like your climbing into someone else’s head for a moment.
I can relate!!

This podcast gives voice to thoughts, feelings, experiences that many of us black women have but may not speak up about. An important conversation with lots of rich layers. ...and gurl!! I loved Alanis & Sheryl on the DL too!!! Lol.

The Colored Girl Beautiful is a narrative podcast exploring the beautiful juxtapositions of black womanhood. In each episode, host Aseloka Smith, will share the story of a black woman searching for balance between strength and vulnerability, friendship and independence, love and ambition, and everything in between.
