Who we are.
We’re on a mission to—
To help middle-aged black women age boldly through community,
self-discovery, and a sense of adventurous risk taking.



Midlife isn’t the end of anything. It’s the first chapter where you’re not only a mother, a wife, or a professional—you’re the author, director, and main character of your own story.
Full Grown was born for the moment when the house grows quiet, the titles feel heavy, and you whisper, “Now what?” This space is where you learn to restructure all that brilliance—business, marriage, parenting, purpose—so your life finally centers you.
What is Full Grown?

“Be brave enough to break the template and choose more.”

Meet Samara
I’m Samara Stone—therapist turned multi-business founder, wife, mother, and card-carrying member of the grown-woman club.
For twenty years I helped entrepreneurs build thriving practices and brands. Somewhere between boardrooms, ballgames, and burnout, I realized success felt good on paper—but not in my body.
Full Grown is my reclamation and my offering: a movement that lets Black women lead lives, loves, and businesses that feel as good as they look.
This is the first season where I’m not leading with my titles—but with my truth. And I know I’m not alone.
The truth is, it takes courage to rebuild your life in midair—to ask deeper questions, to want something softer, to stop shrinking and start shining. Full Grown is where that courage meets strategy. Where Black women redesign their lives with vision, vitality, and voice.
