In this episode of Got it From My Momma, I sit down with Emily Cole—wife, mom of three, and co-founder of the wildly successful Savannah Bananas alongside her husband, Jesse Cole (yes, the one in the iconic yellow tux!).
But behind the viral sensation and sold-out crowds is a story most people don’t see.
Emily shares what it looked like to walk through uncertainty, financial risk, and seasons where nothing was guaranteed… all while holding onto a dream that felt bigger than logic. We talk about the power of believing in something before you see it, supporting your spouse through big leaps, and raising a family grounded in purpose along the way.
We also dive into their heart for foster care and adoption through their organization, Bananas Foster, and how they’re using their platform to make a real difference.
This conversation is for anyone who’s ever wondered:
What if we actually went for it?
✨ In this episode, we talk about:
- Taking risks when the outcome is unknown
- The real story behind the Savannah Bananas
- Motherhood in the middle of it all
- Foster care, adoption, and living with purpose
