In this intimate conversation, Bre and Cece sit down with Naza Shelley, the visionary founder of CarpeDM, a revolutionary matchmaking service built specifically for Black women.
Frustrated by dating apps that overlook the nuanced realities of successful Black women, Naza left her career as an attorney to build something radically different—an experience rooted in data, community, and intentional connection.
In this episode, they explore:
• Why traditional dating apps are failing Black women
• The value of coaching in the pursuit of real connection
• How CarpeDM creates quality matches using video dates, balanced gender ratios, and curated experiences
• What it means to be open, coachable, and realistic in your search for love
• The mindset shift from scarcity to abundance in modern dating
From deeply personal insights to inspiring success stories, Naza reminds us that love is not just possible—it’s worth building for.
If you’ve ever felt unseen in dating, this conversation will leave you empowered and ready to reclaim your narrative.
