Ne-a and Zane were meant/made for one another. Ne-a grew up due to lack of a father figure and Zane was broken due to a cheating wife, loss of a child, and divorce. This listen kept me interested, from beginning to end.
I'd recommend to anyone !!!

Story
Before Jacqueline Woodson met Juliet, before her own self-realization, there were decades of friends, lovers, and family who defined the woman she’d become. In this haunting story of memory and identity, Jacqueline shares the profound impact they had on bending the path of her life; how they informed the dreams of her future; and how each one - some lost, all loved - would bring her to Juliet, her one and only.

Story
Despite gold medals, WNBA championships, and a list of accolades, A’ja Wilson knows how it feels to be swept under the rug—to not be heard, to not feel seen, to not be taken seriously. As a fourth grader going to a primarily white school in South Carolina, A’ja was told she’d have to stay outside for a classmate’s birthday party. Wilson tells stories like this, about how even when life tried to hold her down, it didn’t stop her. She shares her contribution to “The Talk,” and how to keep fighting, all while igniting strength, passion, and joy.

A Phenomenal Book for Black Girls
Reviewed: 06-14-24
A'ja Wilson... NCAA Champion, 3-time SEC Player of the Year, Olympic GOLD medalist and two-time WNBA Champion and MVP had added PUBLISHED AUTHOR to the list. Her first book is a love letter to Black girls - a testament to their histories, triumphs, and potential.
Dear Black Girls speaks about EXTREMELY serious subjects such as ambition, family, grief, imposter syndrome, even racism. Yes, racism !!! A'ja utilizes humor, remarkable warmth, and exceptional insight. She writes about how her parents, grandmother, and Coach Dawn Staley to name a few shaped her. Listening to A'ja tell her story was like a pep talk from your Bestie.
Dear Black Girls a motivational book that'll provide advice, healing, and inspiration for years to come. Thank You, A'ja !!!

Hey you guys, it’s Leslie. I’m excited to share my story with you. Now, I’m gonna be honest: Some of the details might be vague because a b*tch is fifty-five and she’s smoked a ton of weed. But while bits might be a touch hazy, I can promise you the underlying truth is REAL.
