Summary

Reclaiming will cover a wide breadth of topics from the specific microaggressions Black women encounter on dating apps to navigating a career that may seem impossible. Every step of Yewande's writing affirms that maintaining your sense of self in a world that is not supportive of you is difficult, but not impossible. The audiobook will be a thought provoking, sensitive, challenging and deeply moving collection of essays covering everything from identity to love and career choices, published in May 2022.

Reclaiming will serve as an inspiring love letter for anyone who has ever felt out of place, but strives to find success in every aspect of their lives.

Beautiful and relatable book

Loved listening to this book, as a British born Nigerian I related to so many chapters in this book. I would have preferred to hear Yewande read the book as some of the Nigerian names and foods were not pronounced correctly. Other than that this was a great listen
