About this listen

The Too Grown to Pretend Podcast is hosted by Chipo and Regina. Two very different women, who are clumsily building a friendship in real-time, with a microphone in the room. They talk about navigating faith, family, and Zim-life in a constantly changing world, with all the random thoughts that are sure to pop up along the way.... because neither of them have a filter.Their dialogue promises to be peppered with hilarity, strong opinions…and a fair amount of hyperbole! They hope that their conversations will reveal things about friendship, each other, and the world we live in. And that ultimately, the way they engage with honesty, vulnerability, and a sense of humor in this friendship will encourage their listeners to do the same in their own relationships.© 2023 The Too Grown To Pretend Podcast Christianity Ministry & Evangelism Parenting Relationships Social Sciences Spirituality

  • Too Grown To Pretend: Our Lent Experience is Graciously Complicated
    Apr 6 2023

    Chipo and Regina talk about their individual journeys through the sacred season of Lent this year. The lessons, the gentle and gracious convictions, and the significance. Lent is about sacrifice and the authentic display of our weakness.  Whether you are giving up swearing or sugar, it won't be easy and you won't do it perfectly. And so Lent reminds us that the more honest we are about our frailty, the more hope we experience in our relationship with Jesus.

    Grown Folk, do you observe Lent or something like it? What do you give up or take on during that time?

  • Too Grown To Pretend: Exposure Won't Pay The Bills
    Mar 23 2023


    Chipo and Regina discuss their feelings about exposure...you know, working for free. The halftime show Rihanna  performed was unpaid as it always is, but not all exposure is created equal.

    Grown Folk, have you ever been asked to work for "exposure?" How do you know when to take the opportunity and when to pass?
