How's Your Heart? is a mental health and wellness platform here to go deeper than just, "how are you?" In each episode, your host Jess, will open up the conversation about navigating relationships, ideas of self, therapy and work-life balance. Each season invites guests to share their stories and advice on what it means to create intentional relationships where real conversations are the norm. Instead of perpetuating the stigma around mental health and assuming "yeah, I'm good" is the best answer to "how are you?", we are asking, "How's Your Heart?". @howsyourheartpod
