Juanita’s Daily Brew: A Summer Pause – Thank You for 75+ Coffee Breaks (June 5, 2026)

Juanita’s Daily Brew:  A Summer Pause – Thank You for 75+ Coffee Breaks (June 5, 2026) Coffee Swirl Media™   Hello my friends, it's Juanita coming to you from Saskatoon, Saskatchewan CANADA! Today is a little different. Before we begin, I simply want to say thank you. ·        Over the past 75-plus episodes, we've shared a lot of coffee breaks together. We've traveled through history, explored food traditions from Saskatchewan and around the world, and visited cafés, gardens, kitchens, bakeries, fairs, and family tables. We've followed flavors across continents, uncovered fascinating stories, and discovered the people behind the foods we love. And what a journey it's been. ·        For now, I've decided to take a pause for the summer. Not because the journey is over, but because sometimes even the best adventures need a little time to rest, recharge, and see what new roads might appear ahead. This isn't goodbye. It's simply a pause.   ·        All of the episodes will remain available, so if there's a favorite you'd like to revisit—or one you missed along the way—they'll be waiting for you. And if a new story, a new flavor, or a new adventure calls my name, you may just find me back behind the microphone again. So if you haven't already, tap Follow and stay connected. That way, if and when the next journey begins, you'll be right there with me.   ·        If you'd like to say hello, share a favorite episode, tell me where you're listening from, or simply leave a quick message, I'd love to hear from you. You can reach me at: CoffeeSwirlMedia@gmail.com [CoffeeSwirlMedia@gmail.com] Or leave a voice message through SpeakPipe at: www.speakpipe.com/coffeeswirlmedia [http://www.speakpipe.com/coffeeswirlmedia]   ·        And one more thing before I go. While the podcast is taking a summer break, I continue to take on contract work and am actively seeking new opportunities in broadcasting, voice-over, event announcing, emceeing, narration, communications, media projects, and public speaking. Whether you're planning a community event, festival, fair, fundraiser, corporate function, promotional campaign, commercial project, or media initiative, I'd be happy to discuss how I can help.   I'm always interested in connecting with organizations, businesses, and event planners who are looking for an experienced broadcaster, storyteller, announcer, or voice talent.   ·        If you have a project in mind—or know someone who does—I'd love to hear from you. ·        Based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada. ·        Available for both local and remote contract opportunities.   Thank you for every listen. Every download. Every coffee break. And every mile we've traveled together. Until then, take care of yourselves and enjoy your summer. Don't forget to take your coffee break... and stress less. And as always... I'll see you down the road.   — Juanita, Coffee Swirl Media™ Juanita's Daily Brew Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada   Legal: This podcast is prerecorded and produced for informational and entertainment purposes only.
