What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This is such a rich resource. Shena helps us understand that there are behaviors/responses that we’ve been familiar with since childhood that have held on to us into our adult relationships. I’ve come back to the BGH podcast many times over the years to help me remember this and to be gentle with myself. Thank you!

JenPenelope · Jun 2026

I’m so glad I found this podcast! Shena Lashey is great at breaking down and communicating complicated psychological concepts and making them understandable. I love how she makes healing and dealing with being a SLAA actionable and doable, not overwhelming. AND I love that this podcast is from a BIPOC point of view, it’s like water to a person stranded in the desert.

kzlazt · Jan 2026

This is a show that gets deep on one of the most existential healing places for Black women--our hearts, our relationships to others, but mostly to ourselves. This is deep ancestral, true lover girl healing and I'm so happy this podcast exists!

hannaheko · Sep 2025

I wish I could hug Shena after every episode. She really is the best girlfriend/coach/supporter a love addict can have. If my therapy sessions are like the main lecture, this podcast is the tutorial that makes sure that I understand nuance, that I have clear guidance on how to proceed in particular situations. Her affirmations bring me to tears. This podcast is truly a blessing and her work is God’s work.
