It’s the end of the year, did you have plans for the 2022 year that you didn’t quite complete? The ladies of Shaded, Jaded, & Blessed had intentions for 2022 as well. Some we’ve followed through with and others were just forgotten. What do you want out of the new year?

Listen in as we say goodbye and let us know your thoughts on the first season of Shaded, Jaded, & Blessed.
