Gettin' Grown

Jade and Keia bring us to the Kitchen Table this week to reflect on how childhood summers inspire every grown season.

Jade and Keia hit the kitchen table for a Quarter 4 Check-In on their 2025 Annual Goals. SIt with us---Reflection Prompts1. What’s one thing you can celebrate crossing off or accomplishing this year, even if it looks different than you originally planned?(This lets people honor their wins while acknowledging the reality of adaptation)2. Share about a goal that had to shift or change this year. What happened, and what did that pivot teach you about yourself or your priorities?(This normalizes the need to adjust and frames it as growth rather than failure)3. Looking at what’s left of 2025, what’s one thing you’re still working toward or want to focus your energy on before the year ends?(This keeps people forward-looking and empowered rather than just retrospective)---ABC24 Memphis Gettin Grown Featurehttps://youtu.be/uhuFOytdlwA?si=6C78FuintVTenMp0---Tickets Now Available for the Gettin Grown Summer TourCome See US!https://bit.ly/GGSummerTour25---Fact Checking Resources: https://www.factcheck.org/https://www.snopes.com/https://www.politifact.com/https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/fact-checker/https://www.npr.org/sections/politics-fact-check---Support Resources: linktr.ee/gettingrown---Support the show:https://gettingrown.co/shophttps://www.patreon.com/gettingrownEmail: hello@gettingrown.co Twitter: @GettinGrownPod
