Rashad and her daughter, Condola, have a very close relationship, with the younger Rashad following in her mother's footsteps and pursuing a career as an actress with television credits in both television and theatre. Rashad told Associated Press:

"She was with me in every rehearsal hall and backstage in the theatres..and [Condola] says she learned from watching."

During the interview, Rashad said she was stunned by her daughter's talent, adding that Condola had an incredible work ethic and didn't require much guidance from the "A Fall From Grace" actress.

Rashad, who earned the Mother of the Black Community Award at the NAACP Image Awards in 2010, reprised her role as a tv mom in the recent sci-fi movie, "Black Box," which premiered in October.

In an interview with Bustle, the actress credited her own mother, Vivian Ayers Allen, a poet who taught her that her inner self would determine who she was on the outside.
