They’ll Talk, Then They’ll Stop: Dating, Boundaries, and Black Love w/ Gemini


Listen Later

Dating can be messy. Community can be messy too.

Today, Gemini (Shanna Spence) keeps it all the way real about running Toronto’s largest Black singles community, navigating marriage and separation, rediscovering herself as a mom of two sets of twins, and why self-worth and boundaries matter more than opinions.

If you’ve ever stayed for potential, feared the gossip, or struggled to date after doing life alone for a while—this one is for you.

🎙 Host: Yanique Walters 💬 Guest: Shanna “Gemini” Spence

What You’ll Hear:

  • Building a real singles community that actually meets up
  • Why people’s opinions are loud for a week and then gone
  • Dating after divorce and redefining yourself
  • The questions to ask that reveal who someone really is
  • Self-worth, standards, and not settling for potential
  • Boundaries with partners, friends, and even kids
