About this episode
Alana reflects on emotional growth and nostalgia triggered by the finale of the show Growing Pains.
This one was sparked by me seeing the last scene of the SERIES finale from the 90's show Growing Pains ... I started crying ... a little unsure on exactly why ... but it was a moment I wanted to capture ... So I hit record. This one talks a lot about as we grow ... as we change... as we become different versions of ourselves ... sometimes we still miss, or grieve, or even become nostalgic about who we have been in the past .... this one starts off pretty emotional but I seem to taper out as it goes on ... so please stick with me on this one! Love Always, Alana
