Black Girl's Guide To ATL: CockTales Edition ft. Shanita @blackgirlsguideatl

About this episode

The episode features Shanita from @blackgirlsguideatl sharing insights on enjoying Atlanta, including dating tips and local experiences.

This week, we’re outside (literally) with a real Atlanta insider. We’re joined by Shanita, the woman behind @blackgirlsguideatl, and she came through with the blueprint for actually enjoying this city—whether you’re dating, solo, or outside with your girls. We kick things off with a round of I’m Curious to Know that gets a little personal (as usual), then get into everything Atlanta: where to go, what to do, and how to stop defaulting to the same tired dinner + drinks routine. From Beltline staples and hidden gems to interactive date ideas, museums, wine tastings, and even where to meet quality men (yes… she gave real strategy), this episode is basically your Atlanta starter pack. We’re talking daytime vibes, girl dates, family-friendly options, and experiences that actually make dating fun again. We also get into real conversation about confidence, self-worth, and dating from a place of abundance—not desperation. If you’ve ever felt stuck, overlooked, or unsure where to start, this part is for you. Plus, we highlight some incredible Black-owned businesses, local experiences, and upcoming events you need to add to your list ASAP. Save this episode, share it with your group chat…
