From TV Bonding to Real Conversations

Ever wondered how a shared love for a TV show could spark a heartfelt project? Join us, Emily and Trina, on the debut episode of the Mind Your Heart Podcast as we recount the spontaneous moments that led us to create this space dedicated to mental health. Inspired by the bond between Lorelai and Rory Gilmore, we aim to explore real conversations about anxiety, depression, and self-acceptance with warmth, humor, and authenticity. From our golden doodle Kobe's walks to Emily's immediate excitement, we share the fun and genuine stories behind our podcast's inception.

Kickstarting this journey, Emily dives into her new venture in confidence coaching while we reflect on the years of counseling that have shaped our perspectives. We cherish the tradition of watching Gilmore Girls together and hope to bring that same sense of connection to our listeners. So, grab your emotional support water bottle, settle into your comfiest chair, and join our mother-daughter duo as we mind our hearts and aim to make minding yours a little easier.

Be sure to follow us anywhere you get your podcasts. That way you will get the episode each week. Plus, we would LOVE a review! That will help more people find us. Thank you so much!

I know I was actually walking one day and with my dog. I have a dog, a golden doodle, named Kobe. So Kobe and I were walking along and I'm like I wonder if Emily would do a podcast with me, because I have two podcasts. So I thought why not add a third podcast? Why not do more? Why not do more? And I thought you know, a podcast with my daughter. That way she's like kind of obligated to talk to me at least once a week and I don't get to see her. Like that is really exciting. So I thought surely she's going to say no. But she said yes, immediately.

Speaker 1: 1:48

Yes, you texted me and you were like you want to do a podcast. And I said yes, exclamation point. And you were like, wait, what? And I was like you mean you want to record a podcast together? And you're like that is what I mean.
