Everything we asked for!

I've been able to see the Shea Butter journey since the very beginning and Skye and Sylvs and the whole team been killing it from jump and creating the table for Black women in soccer to be celebrated! Thank you Shea Butter FC!

Almost

The sound is really bad. Love the content and concept. Had to unfollow because of the quality. With some tweets and guidance, this podcast could be amazing. Too amateur when there are so many that aren’t.
