Adult Puberty
Adult Puberty Podcast is for those of us who didn’t receive a silver spoon into adulthood and who dare to live authentic, unscripted lives. My name is Ebonie and I value self-development, or "the work" as I call it, in the areas of physical health, mental/emotional stability and spiritual maturity. I have experienced the transformative power of doing the work, so I want to empower and encourage you to embrace "the work" for the sole purpose of being the best version of yourself. Mountaintop experiences happen every so often. Does that mean we stop living or growing? Not at all! There’s so much untapped opportunity for personal growth in everyday living. You are not alone and we are all trying to figure it out, so I hope you hear something that makes you think, laugh, grow or seek God for your self.
