We talk about what it means to grow in the coffee industry, the power of approachable education, and the kind of intentional culture that makes a company like Stone Creek stand out. It’s a laid-back, thoughtful conversation that's sure to make you look at your next cafe drink a little differently.

In this episode of Tiny Sidecar, we're taking a cozy ride through Wisconsin’s coffee scene. From roastery tours to heartfelt coffee chats with family and friends, I recap my recent trip and the moments that made it special. Tune in for nostalgic sips, surprise lattes (hint: Coca-Cola dreams do come true), and reflections on how connection brews best when shared. This is your invitation to pull up a chair and come along for the ride. Welcome back to the Sidecar!

Big shout out to Discourse, Likewise, Stone Creek Coffee, Valentine Roasters, Colectivo, and Tucknee Coffee.

It’s been a month of Tiny Sidecar, and we’re riding side roads and celebrating milestones... some intentional, some delightfully off-course. In this episode, I’m reflecting on the first few episodes, sharing some behind-the-scenes moments, and chatting through what’s coming next. Plus, a little preview of an upcoming roadtrip to Wisconsin that may or may not include an excessive amount of coffee stops.

If you’re here for polished structure... maybe skip this one. But if you’re into cozy catch-ups, caffeinated chaos, and the magic of just starting something new - hop in let's go.

Big thanks to @ustreamcoffee for your voice memo this week!
