Episode 09: Colorado Coffee Cruise....Family, Failure & Figuring It Out

Episode 06: Coffee & Life’s Speed Bumps

Sometimes life hits you with a speed bump you never saw coming. Grief doesn’t follow rules—and it definitely doesn’t come with a roadmap. In this episode, we get real about loss, healing, and what it actually looks like to keep moving forward when everything feels heavy. We also open up about cancer—survivorship, caregiving, and the impact it has not just on the person going through it, but on the people who love them. Disclaimer: This episode includes discussions around grief, cancer, and medical experiences that may be emotional or difficult for some listeners. Please take care while listening.

Episode 16: Choosin' Texas – A Coffee Cruise Adventure

EPISODE DESCRIPTION 🤠☕ We came for the music... but left with a story. In Episode 16 of Coffee Cruise, my husband and I head to Austin, Texas for the Two Step Inn Music Festival and end up creating our own Austin Coffee Trail along the way. From hidden coffee gems and creative coffee concepts to incredible food, local breweries, a DIY craft bar, and even a Texas hailstorm, this trip turned into much more than a weekend getaway. Join us as we explore Austin's unique coffee culture, visit spots like Cosmic Coffee, Brew & Brew, Maaribu Coffee, Teal House Coffee & Bakery, Lazarus Brewing Company, and The Salty Donut, and share our favorite memories from one unforgettable adventure. Of course, Texas had a few surprises waiting for us—including a canceled festival day, a Bass Pro Shop hailstorm shelter, and one perfect night of live music featuring Chris Stapleton, Red Clay Strays, Avery Anna, and more. So grab your favorite drink and come take the long way through Texas with us. ☕ Austin Coffee Trail 🎸 Two Step Inn Music Festival 🌩️ Texas Storms & Unexpected Detours 👜 Upstairs Circus Craft Bar 🍩 Incredible Local Eats 🚙 Adventures on the Road Ahead
