Student Doctor Alexus Jackson joins Stranger Fruit Vol V, Episode III to explore the concept of Developing—a process that is always unfolding in real time. Growth isn’t just about moving forward; it’s about recognizing the seasons of preparation, navigating stagnation, and learning how to restart when the process feels stalled. In this episode, we reflect on the active work of shaping ourselves, the role of self-awareness, and the importance of adaptability in personal and professional development.
