A New Season, A New Way to Wake Up

Send us Fan MailSeason 2 opens with a new way to approach growth. Instead of rigid goals shaped by productivity culture, Karen and Jonelle introduce their Bingo Card Intention Framework, a playful system for staying engaged in long-term bias work without shame or burnout. Inspired by a year of learning, discomfort, and community conversations, they explore how shifting from “goals” to “intentions” frees us from perfectionism and opens us to curiosity, joy, and accountability.The Bingo approach encourages listeners to choose a mix of personal, relational, and justice-centered commitments. From reading banned books, supporting BIPOC-owned bookstores, and studying one issue of systemic oppression in depth, to amplifying listener stories, collaborating with other podcasts, and building community through a book club, this episode reframes personal growth as something compassionate rather than punishing. Season 2 begins with imagination, play, and a renewed commitment to waking up together.Calls to ActionMake your own 2026 Bingo Card and choose intentions that stretch you without shaming you.Tell us which intention from our list resonated most and why.Nominate a BIPOC-owned bookstore or creator for us to feature this season.We would love to hear from you!
