Episode 55 - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Mending Families is hosted by Melissa Pemberton and she brings you weekly content that is a mix of trauma aware interviews, parenting tips for those caring for kids from adversity, and stories from people just like you as they share their beautiful messy moments. Melissa hopes that when you listen each week, you will feel encouraged, inspired and take a little something away to help you and your family move from broken to mended.
On today’s episode, Jon Pemberton guest-hosts the podcast as the tables are turned on Melissa. He interviews her on all things podcasting and what she has learned over the past year. Jon is one of the funniest people, so you won’t want to miss this one!
Topics Melissa mentions:
*The wedding ring was found! No need to be concerned about Jon getting hit on in SoCal!
*The Happy Hour podcast and Serial were the two podcasts that got Melissa hooked on podcasts many years ago
*Melissa makes an announcement that she has a new sponsor for the podcast, West Plains Roasters! Thank you, West Plains Roasters for being our first sponsor EVER and for being such a blessing to our community!
*Jessica Sinarski’s episode and Robyn Gobbel’s episode were both more than I expected (in a good way!)
*My interview with my daughter, Haley, and the two episodes (#8 and #34) that I share my own story were both the most emotional episodes for me.
*Haley also made me laugh a lot in her interview, as well as Hannah LaBolle and Cassie Day.
*Three episodes that I was amazed that they said yes to letting me interview them was Tori Hope Peterson, Robyn Gobbel and Jessica Sinarski
*My dream interviews would be with Cindy Lee, Jamie Finn, Dr. Becky or Dr. Aliza, and Allison Cook
*If you have connections with Justin Timberlake, it would be a dream to interview him on my podcast mostly because I have a crush on him ;)
