Episode #308: 2025 Mid-Year Resolution Check-In
Grace and Alvina do a mid-year check in to see how they're doing on their new year's resolutions! They talk about their words of the year, and give updates on their goals and aspirations.
For the Fortune Cookie Segment, they talk about the seven types of friends everyone needs. And, Alvina tells Grace about the middle grade book SILVERBORN by Jessica Townsend. And they end as always with what they're grateful for.

Grace has been hanging out with Kate Milford and Jeanne Birdsall.
