In this special episode, we sit down with one of Coco’s Heart’s original fosters and foster mentors, Marissa—an “OG” who’s been part of the rescue’s journey since the early days. From helping shape the foundation of the organization to witnessing its incredible growth, she shares heartfelt stories, behind-the-scenes memories, and what it’s like to see fellow volunteers and fosters “out in the wild” continuing the mission of saving animals. Whether you’re a seasoned rescue veteran or just starting your fostering journey, this episode is a beautiful reminder of the power of community, compassion, and the difference one person can make.
