This was a great conversation, Amanda does a good job of asking questions and letting the guest talk and gives responses, this was almost just a regular conversation as opposed to an interview. Big Sean is a great artist and personality.

[@TheAmandaSeales]

Yayy! A regular convo with substance is the goal!

[@the_wolf_of_willingboro]

He be dropping some gems 💎

[@AuntTea30Pluspage]

He’s always a joy to listen to. Intelligent yet can speak the cultures language. He always presents so authentic. I love his interviews.

[@MissKofAZ]

I was avoiding watching this episode as a single mom of an infant whose father left. “Fatherhood” is still a touchy subject for me. However, im very glad I listened. Sean definitely dropped gems regarding mindfulness and just being the best version of you for your child. I’m hyper aware of that and actively working toward that and healing all wounds so I don’t bleed on my child. I also appreciate the love and reverence he showed when speaking about his son. ❤

[@jelisatruly5334]

I can totally see why he a jené are together they complement each other

[@CamiCreative31]

Amanda we need Sean on Smart Funny and Black Detroit Edition!!!

[@peacesofmymine]

nah when he said “ he my only sun, so my world revolve around him “ im writing that DOWN

[@indiaaa1095]

Real talk, I have no desire to be a mother and never really have. This was a healing conversation for me though, it makes me feel like the kids gon be alright 🥹

[@dontilisha]

❤

[@bryannag.]

same!!!!

[@Amazin_danni]

I think I’m a terrible mother and not in a abusive or neglectful way, I just feel like it was never my lane. My kids love me tho and would say the opposite so I’m doing something correctly. You might surprise yourself. I still don’t think I’m the best but my oldest is headed to college this month.

[@DB-zf3uq]

Being a dad looks good on you Sean , and I know you’re going to be a good one ……it was meant to be 🙂

[@peacesofmymine]

“i definitely got periods i dodnt deserve” lmao heavy

[@juanla5243]

I met my father when I was 15. He helped me with confidence and from there it was on. He was a ol skoo player bt he let me know who I was and where I came from. He died ten yrs after me meeting him bt I am the man I am today because of him and I just wana thank Ryan White (my father) for enlightening me on where I came from so I can be a better man in this day

[@Noise_floorxx]

Omg this was for me. I've asked God to give me a clear sign on something. The very first words spoke to me. Then he talked about kids being astrophysicists or basketball players and that's what my children both want to be!

[@ravevbuddies]

I listen to big Sean’s I decided album everyday when it came out. I went to go see him in concert. Sacrifices, voices in my head/stick to the plan on repeat till this day. So glad you had him on the podcast. And congratulations to him now being a dad 😁

[@GratitudeGriot]

love the casual comfort of this convo and the tactfulness to keep it off Jhene. I was waiting for this one and it didn't disappoint. I'm a 40 y/o new mom to a 7 month old and my entire pregnancy I was hyper-aware of miscarriage because they're so common. Sending love to those that experienced one💕

[@TheAmandaSeales]

Thank you ❤

[@momoe.4075]

That was a beautiful interview. It say alot that he doesn't do interviews often and he chose to speak with Amanda. Love to see Black men support Black women. Especially opinionated and outspoken Black women like Amanda. More of this.

[@TheAmandaSeales]

❤

[@TheAmandaSeales]

Lemme add that he was also ADAMANT about it. It took a while to schedule and several times I was like "it's all good" and he INSISTED that NO he was going to make it happen. Stand up guy🫶🏽

[@KenzWorld17]

Putting into the universe. I WILL sit with THEE Amanda Seales. “Side effects of being a teacher” Bring me on, sis! I’m ready 🫶🏿❤️ Your style has kept me engaged from a child. You have a GIFT!❤️

[@yndianna]

We definitely need another small doses episode with him!! He appeared to have much more to say, and so thoughtfully too🙌🏾

[@Dash2bklyn]

I saved this interview for my Sunday breakfast ritual for my son - Single parent - and this interview is so motivating to keep the faith that you can find someone who loves you and the unity that makes a child.

[@selenesalas8536]

I can listen to this man talk all day!! I can only imagine the conversations he has with JHENE ❤️

[@johelen_]

Rushed out the shower just to hurry up and watch this !!! 😍😍😍😍

[@jamesmarie]

Love to see a rapper mature into adulthood/manhood. There's too many n%$$as wanna stay between 19 to 25.

[@TheAmandaSeales]

[@DB-zf3uq]

We have to teach our kids to be leaders , not to have to follow anyone , no need to beat to anyone’s drum …….make your own melody

[@meequon1]

Babies are coming from the spirit world, they know so much, that's why they connect so much to elders, they are both the closest to the same place, I love this conversation💫

[@not2thick2befit77]

Not me getting teary eyed for this interview. Wow Big Sean seems to be an amazing dad, partner and man. I loved the questions Amanda gave him.

[@rayneb.1058]

Hope you enjoyed your birthday!🎉 I'm happy you're back. This interview dropped so many gems. When Big Sean said "being a parent could be a traumatic experience for people you who my not have been ready"...whew! Also, would love to hear you dive into side effects abandonedment issues. Where does it show up and what habits have I adopted because of it? Thanks for all you do with your platform.❤

This was nice! Such great points and perspectives

[@NayGloir]

Wow this interview was so refreshing. Glad we got to hear “grounded Sean” and his experiences. I would love to see more of the two of them speaking ❤

[@ericacouture]

I want to say thank you first! This interview was so beautiful and inspiring. I felt like this was so much confirmation in my life right now and I just want to say thank you. 💜

[@Awillii]

And another one!!! It’s hit on so many levels. So many people look at these things and irresponsibly bring children into the world. ❤️. This and the Ananda Lewis interview are so powerful.

[@rbnrly]

This conversation was so grounding. Love to hear from big Sean!

[@mrsamaziin]

The script from this alone ! Whew chile!! I look forward to reading each of these books.

[@veronicajackson6607]

Ok I need to get my book game up to level! This was so enlightening and helpful to my spirit 😊

My Detroit brotha! He’s not only a great rapper but a real cool dude 🫶🏾

[@bryannag.]

[@IMALEGEND_]

I took a lot of notes . This was amazing . I wish Big Sean’s mother would share these holistic ideas and practices to the world .

[@SamadSaVage]

This was beautiful

[@ChaeThompson]

Always had a crush on him ❤️

[@devontei7671]

I’m glad I watch Sean he is still under rated, and I’m glad he talked about fatherhood

[@taykendall910]

This was beautiful to watch! Thank u so much for sharing!! I am happy he and another beautiful soul created a person who will also be nice and mindful in this world we live in. We need more people like them to procreate, instead of the unintentional hot messes out here popping babies out just cuz their ovaries work. 😒

[@beatriceruttagah6305]

The greatest gift God ever gave me was being a mother! I believe it was my calling

[@nola8509]

Great conversation ❤

[@WAAMUH]

Expecting my first child in October, so I really appreciated coming across this interview.

[@melissawhite5688]

Dope interview!! Love Amanda!! Love Sean representing the D!!❤

[@phumlanindlovu5653]

this was a really powerful episode and it came as suggestion ✌🏾❤🇿🇦🔥🔥🔥

[@charlahenry]

I have always respected you, I love how you stand up for us! This is the best interview, I'm from Michigan, so I always rocked with Big Sean, but now I have another level of respect for him! Great Guy and Father figure 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@brtnyd]

Great interview. Definitely instilled some calmness in me as I’m currently expecting. I’ve always loved Big Sean and seeing him grow into the man he is and what he chooses to stare with the world is refreshing.

[@t.wilson7962]

❤… oooo weee “if it goes from a challenge to a stress you gotta let it go” 💫😮‍💨

[@jocelynlinares7008]

I love how interactive this is on KZbin. I only ever listened on podcast apps. Anyway, a memory I have of my father: He was always good with his money, and I think any time I think about making financial decisions I think about what he taught me. He was also a very funny guy so; I definitely embrace laughter. Laughter can be therapeutic, and we need more reasons for joy!

[@BefriendYourBrand]

This was such a great conversation. Flint Town stand up! I'm so glad he mentioned my hometown.

[@thatnikkadaman]

Thank you for this much needed insightful episode 🙏🏿

[@bowiehs]

I absolutely love Amanda, she is so articulate and allows the guest to be themselves.

I will always listen to Big Sean interviews. Great conversation

[@TheMeaghannWay]

Great interview. Sean’s aspect of fatherhood is beautiful ❤ As a woman expecting my first son in a month it was dope to hear his perspective. I’ll be asking my man to watch this episode 🙏🏾 thank you.

[@KnowwItTV]

Totally loved this interview! Sean you are a blessing and I adore how insightful and willing to except good things, hands down an awesome father!! Love how hands on he is with his son and he takes time with his son! Dealing with his health and mental, love it! Just listening to Sean I have learned a WHOOOOLE LOT in and about life and situations in general!!! Thanks Amanda for bringing him on for me to hear! Btw, Amanda I hit the like button and I Subscribed. My first time on and highly enjoyed listening to you both❤❤😂🤗

[@elisaowens2368]

Great interview! Helpful as a single mom of teenage boys to hear a man’s perspective of what he needed growing up that his parents may have lacked or what he wants to teach his son. Great conversation!!

[@Awusie]

This was a supremely dope, intentional & inspiring conversation. Love witnessing & hearing the growth in folks journeys. It's a true reminder. Been going through what seems to be an endless bout of "sideways" and been rocked out of alignment. Sometimes hearing others share, provides a guiding light to your own healing. Is it a challenge or a stress? Where does my confidence truly lie? So many nuggets. Appreciate this. 🙌🏾

[@sdot119]

Listening to him is like listening to myself especially when it comes to fatherhood. I love the vulnerability and him expressing intention and purpose as it relates to parenting. We all our the best versions of our mother's and fathers. Wherever they were in their lives we got the best of them. Hopefully we all realize that and grant them grace. Peace to the fatherhood men are nurtures too and it's ok to lean into that. Ain't nothing soft about being loving, compassionate, thoughtful, affectionate, sensitive. It's just means you're balanced so open up and get in touch with your divine feminine B!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@cjr.5606]

Big Sean is my real friend in my head! I even had a dream he and I was cool people. 😂 He’s very intelligent and conscious. I love it. I’ve read many books he’s mentioned or reread them. Very proud of him. I know he and Jhené are doing a good job with their kids. Cool and conscious is a dope thing.
