CoffeeFitnessUnicorn was created as a healing tool/persona after becoming a widow and turning to fitness from a coffee-lovers perspective.

Everything I did when I was training was to get healthy in body and mind. I worked hard, I trained hard and I learned valuable tools and gained a great foundation for fitness. So much so that I considered becoming a Personal Trainer.

Then my life kept changing and I kept learning and growing and finding my new voice.

That voice was in my blogs, my Instagram posts and then became my podcast.

The podcast became my new tool. By connecting with others as guests, as listeners, I kept growing and healing and learning.

The show started as one thing then evolved. Like I did.

The show is still coffee-centered, of course, just with a new take on things.

Coffee Fueled Stories seemed like the right name, the right time and the right fit/feel/vibe.

I am still your Pocket DJ and I look forward to sharing the podcast with its new updates and will bring you mini-episodes (Mini-Mondays will be back) again.
