REAL TALK: Mental Health Sounds Like This Hosted by Emma G & Rawinia Judson What does it really look like to thrive in your zone of genius — without losing yourself in the process? REAL TALK: Mental Health Sounds Like This is where high-performing humans, creative leaders, and changemakers get honest about the messy, beautiful, and brave work of staying mentally, emotionally, and spiritually well while doing meaningful work in the world. Hosted by award-winning singer/songwriter, author, and empowerment coach Emma G, and life and leadership coach Rawinia Judson, this podcast is a space for candid conversations about the realities behind resilience. From navigating burnout to healing through music, embracing vulnerability to redefining success — nothing is off limits. Emma and Rawinia first bonded over early morning CrossFit sessions in New Zealand, where carpool chats quickly turned into soul-deep sisterhood. Now living on opposite sides of the world (Emma in the U.S., Rawinia in Canada), they’re teaming up to bring you a podcast rooted in realness, laughter, and the deep belief that your story matters. Each episode features intimate, unscripted conversations with guests who are courageously rewriting the narrative around mental health — one story, one strategy, one moment at a time. This is not therapy. This is not perfection. This is REAL TALK. And this is what mental health sounds like.
