    Relatable but really need to chill with the cussing though!!
    I joined this podcast via recommendation from an interview from Woman Evolve and I do sometimes enjoy the content, but I don’t really care for all the cussing especially if you call yourself a Christian. It’s pretty offensive.
  • Plusizeprincess
    These my big cousins in my head.
    Jade and Dr. Kia are just such good energy you really gotta give this pod a listen!
  • Tatted America
    It’s complicated
    This episode should have came with a trigger warning! Had me all types of boohoo at work and looking crazy. It’s def a good one. I love you all of you ladies and you’re all def an inspiration for me to keep going and doing the work.
  • Tellskie
    Grateful for y’all!
    I’m grateful for y’all and your podcast. Been listening since the beginning and it makes gettin’ grown in real life all the more enjoyable. Thank you!
  • Getting grown review 09/19/23
    This show is deeply soothing
    I’ve been a long time listener and now a first time commenter. I recently listened to the “in my _____ era” episode and Keia’s words about wanting to want for yourself and the liberation that comes from trusting where you are in your life and that your choices do not need justification to stand is something I say to myself more often than not. This aspects of the more challenging parts of our relationships with our mothers is realer than real. This episode in particular is deeply metabolizing in my bones. Thank you Keia and Jade for what you do, your words are so rich and full of wisdom for your audience. We deeply appreciate you!
  • Nywatts83
    All caught up!!😭😭

  • wendypachex
    Love sitting at your kitchen table
    Thank you for who you both are in this world. I love y’all’s dynamic. Y’all so intelligent and vibrant and honest and authentic. I’m the only woman in my fam and y’all are the aunties/tias I wish I had. I feel like I’m eavesdropping on grown women convos and picking up gems and lessons along the way. Appreciate y’all’s heart work!

    Gettin grown podcast
    Listeeeen I used to love this podcast! I’d watch it every Tuesday night but lately it seems like Kia doesn’t let jade get a word in & it’s annoying! I know it’s probably fine in on the back end but as a listener I enjoy Jades opinion. I had to stop listening last week’s episode because jade was talking and I was listening to what she was saying and kia literally talked right over her like she wasn’t there . Even in the kitchen table, Kia went on & on & on ..

    I feel like Jade and Keia are my girlfriends in my head. They let me know that it is ok to make mistakes in your adult life. And I can relate to some of the topics that they discuss in the episodes. Keep going ladies, you are doing an amazing job.

    My Cup is Full!
    The mentoring session gave me what I didn’t know I needed. As a new director/professor at a PWI, I feel as though my Black womanhood isn’t fed. Actually, I’ve been starving. After listening to this episode, I was FULL! So much so that I could appreciate the autumnal beauty around me as I walked into my building on campus (something that I often miss). I printed out the article and will be ordering the book asap! I can’t thank you both enough for filling my cup. It’s been depleted for far too long. 💖
  • Hunni bump
    My fave Jadeteenth
    I’m behind but this is by far my favorite episode in a while. I thoroughly enjoyed everything from vacation recap, grandma being impressed by that couch purchase and social media “honoring” the queen. The song lyrics a fun trip down memory lane & a reflection of why was I singing these songs at 14 lol. I most certainly laughed the entire time. You two are the best duo!!

    Gals doing big things!
    I love these ladies! Keia and Jade are hilarious, thoughtful, and real. This podcast keeps me entertained, and as a Patron I love the video content as well. Thank you for sharing with us and continuing and thank you for continuing to center and uplift women (✊🏾women especially). ✌🏾💖 to you both!

    Thee Best Show
    I absolutely LOVE this podcast. I Alyssa look forward to the new episode each week. I stumbled upon this show in when we were deep in Pandora’s box of COVID. Now, I listen with my daughter (12) who too, loves to listen to these beautiful women. We learn, we laugh, I’ve cried and laughed some more! Thank you to these women for bringing us this love each and every week. 🤎

    I feel fully hydrated when I listen in to gettin grown. In these times of global warming not one day can be skipped to take in the nourishment that these beautiful beings provide. I am grateful for the guidance and direction in this path that is being a grown up.
  • MsMartinaMsMartina99999
    So charming and funny
    These girls are extremely cute. It’s really nice to have on in the background when I work bc they laugh constantly. They’re smart and clever and open. It’s a peach of a podcast
  • blackhippielounge

    Review time 😁
    All I can say that you two are hilarious, informative, and are a service to the community. Don’t stop, Won’t stop, Can’t stop like Diddy with this podcast. Love it 💛
  • Writin'Reviews
    Terrible Influence!
    I have to admit that I didn’t love this podcast the first time I listened. By the second episode I was hooked. Now I low key hate y’all cuz I’m sitting in my house watching Married at First Sight instead of reading. I feel so left out when y’all are talking trash about the show and I felt the need to watch. This is all y’all’s fault! For the actual meat of my review, I love that y’all are authentic, unapologetic and amazing!!!
  • MsRaeLove
    My saving grace
    This show has been my saving grace through some really tough times. Adulting truly is the ghetto, but with Jade & Keia, it’s definitely a little more tolerable. Thanks for all you do ladies!
  • Hawaiilivinme
    Yesssss
    Love this show. So relatable.
  • ConfettiBetch
    Yep
    Love the show. Don’t love the misophonia when there is snackin’ and chattin’.

  • Ness2U
    Great podcast
    One of the best things to come out of this pandemic was my discovery of this podcast!! I enjoy listening to these two educated ladies while I’m doing stuff, always have me Ki-Ki-Ing with their bluntness.
  • Aukeya
    Great podcast!
    It’s a highlight of the week.
  • CUBANGAL
    KEIA TYPING
    Please please please stop trying while recording It’s very distracting and a bit rude Still love the show and have been a listener since day 1 🙂

    Everything I need weekly to get me though the Ghetto-good ADULThood
    I am a newer listener and I am now a sista! Thank you all for just being another reason to smile weekly while adulting mommying, careering... joying and all the other made words I can think of! We love you! Chi-city Jenny
  • AshBze
    So dang good
    I just had to write a quick review. This is one of my favorite podcast. This episode took me out because I can relate to Khia and Jade just laughing at Noah’s description of these Korean boy and Girl bands😂 Every week they bring just real life topics. Love them and Bless em!
  • jayrobby4938539
    Great Balance
    Jade brings all the humor that we live for and Keia brings such in depth reflections! Yess to this balance! Right what we need!
  • Tabella Sea
    My spirit is fed from y’all!!

  • TellzS
    Podcast vs talking to people
    I’d rather listen to you dolls, than to interact with humans. I’ve learned so much. Some of the conversations have hit home for me, spiritually. So glad I found this podcast. Blessings ❤️
  • blksugabae
    👏🏽❤️
    I love y’all! I’m so grateful for every single episode! 🙌🏽❤️👏🏽 y’all are definitely apart of my weekly black woman self care! I pray for peace and blessings to both of you!

    THE TRUTH PERIODT!!!!
    Sent by Good Moms…this definitely a GOOD Choice! Love how y’all speak your truths and give life to me speaking mine UNAPOLOGETICALLY!!!
  • Yrallih
    Gauranteed to take something from listening
    This most recent episode with Erica and Mila really goes down as one of my favorites ever. It was exactly what I needed to hear and each of them had something beautiful to offer. The transparency and vulnerable is appreciated because as a woman in my 30’s, I’m navigating some of these very things. This is what it truly means to “get grown”!
  • deetoone
    Good moms sent me
    And I’m staying! Loved it
  • Chel P.
    My big sisters
    I love their dynamics. I listen every morning. It’s that good 🤗
  • MajorG90
    My fav!
    I absolutely love this podcast! They make me feel like I’m just hanging out around the kitchen table cutting up with them. I’m always excited for a new episode to drop and they’re the only drop I highly anticipate!!!
