{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"Traversing Tuesdays","slug":"traversingtuesdayswithemkay","podcastDescription":"

Traversing Tuesdays is a cozy, character-driven storytelling podcast for creative minds, spoonie hearts, and fans of whimsical audio fiction.

Each week, host EmKay shares her personal journey of finding time and energy for creativity while navigating the realities of chronic illness, neurodivergence, and everyday life. Alongside her unlikely co-hosts — Rupert Kettle (a squirrel newscaster), Sister Cat (window correspondent and official nap lifestyle consultant), Fenwick the Snail (a fast-talking slow-living guru), and a deeply philosophical water glass — she explores the absurdities of life through humor, reflection, and slow-living philosophy.

Part whimsical fiction, part heartfelt memoir, part gentle rebellion against hustle culture — this podcast is for anyone trying to live thoughtfully, laugh quietly, and create anyway.

🐌 Ideal for fans of quirky fictional podcasts, personal storytelling, and practical ideas with a side of tea.
