About Our Guest
Emma Worrollo is an entrepreneur, mother of 3, writer, podcaster, and a big dreamer. Emma's biggest skill is her imagination, which she used to grow an international agency specializing in child and family insights, The Pineapple Lounge, for some of the biggest brands on the planet! Think Google, Nike, Adobe, and more!
For 12 years Emma taught the world's biggest brands on how to innovate for Generation Alpha and empathized with today's parents. Mid-pandemic, on maternity leave with baby number 3, Emma took the leap to step aside from her big girl job to...play more.
Her new venture, The Playful Den, emerged off the back of a thriving social media community and Emma now focuses her work on helping individuals, businesses, and families to play more. Emma is on a mission to inspire people to make play a part in their well-being tool kit and make small lifestyle tweaks to #LivePlayfully.
