CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: JANUARY 2025

Hey coffee friends, and welcome to our January Café Session! We’ve officially made it through the first month of the year—congrats to us. January always feels like it’s about six years long, but here we are at the very end, freezing our way through a Denver winter. Seriously, it’s been cold. The kind of cold that makes you reconsider every life choice that led you to live somewhere where the air hurts your face. At least we’ve had plenty of coffee to keep us warm.

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: DECEMBER 2024

Hello, coffee friends, and welcome to our December Café Session! Can you believe we’ve made it to the final stretch of the year? December always feels like a strange mix of chaos and calm. Everyone’s rushing to wrap up projects, but let’s be honest—most emails at this point end with, “Let’s circle back next year,” because nobody’s really working. It’s that awkward limbo where we’re pretending to be productive while secretly just thinking about holiday plans and cookies.

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: NOVEMBER 2024

Hello, coffee lovers, and welcome to our November Café Session! Can you believe it’s already November? It feels like the world barely had time to peel off the Halloween face paint before diving headfirst into Christmas lights and holiday jingles. But let’s not skip over the greatness of November, okay? It’s the month of epic food, stretchy pants, and, of course, that little thing called being thankful. Plus, it’s the perfect time to start thinking about unique gifts for the coffee lovers in your life. (Spoiler alert: you don’t have to give coffee beans. We’ve got some fun ideas for that in this session!)

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: OCTOBER 2024

Greetings, coffee fanatics, and welcome to our October Café Session! With Halloween just a few days away, we’re officially in full spooky season mode, and what better way to prepare than by talking about candy—specifically, which candies pair best with coffee. Because let’s be honest, we’re all going to have some Halloween candy left over, and it’s practically our duty to find creative ways to enjoy it.

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: SEPTEMBER 2024

Welcome to our September Café Session! As we bid farewell to September, it's supposed to be cooling down, but Denver seems to have completely missed the fall memo—90 degrees as we head into October is just wild! The one upside? Maybe, just maybe, we’ll get a warm Halloween for once. Growing up there was nothing worse than having to cover up a cool costume with a winter coat (still a childhood trauma for many of us).

This month, we’re diving into the cozy world of campfire coffee and...

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: AUGUST 2024

Summer is nearly behind us, even if the temperatures disagree, and that can only mean one thing...football is back! In Colorado, excitement is brewing for the Broncos and their rookie QB Bo Nix, while the collegiate world is abuzz with Deion Sanders and his Buffs, despite last year’s four-win season. But if football isn't your thing, September also marks the return to school for the kids and the end of vacation season. At Enterprise Coworking, we're seeing members return to the office as their kids head back to class, and our student members are hitting the books here in our space.

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: JULY 2024

Greetings, coffee enthusiasts, and welcome to our July Café Session! July is always a standout month, especially for me since it’s my birthday month—yes, I’m a proud July baby! This year, I celebrated with a fantastic park day and, of course, some tequila! I love any reason to celebrate, and I hope you found your own ways to enjoy this month too. That said, as we bid farewell to July and prepare to welcome August, the summer heat remains relentless, especially since we’ve had far less rain than last year. Thankfully, we have iced coffee to help us beat the heat as we head into…

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: MAY 2024

Welcome to our May Café Session! The sun is shining, the birds are singing, and the temperature is finally climbing—it's officially warm weather season! Park days and outdoor adventures beckon, inviting us to soak up the splendor of nature. But before we head out, let's take a moment to reflect on Denver’s beloved sports teams. Sadly, both the Nuggets and the Avs have bowed out of the playoffs, leaving us without a championship run to rally behind. I'd say at least the Rockies are still in it, but let's be real—they're giving new meaning to the term "it’s a rebuilding year." That said, there's still plenty of joy to be found in a day at Coors Field with a cold beer in hand—because even though the Rockies are undeniably terrible, they at least offer us a great excuse to get outside and enjoy a cold one with friends!

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: APRIL 2024

Greetings, coffee comrades, and welcome to our April Café Session! Apologies for the slight delay in posting—we got caught up in the whirlwind of May flowers blooming. As we bid adieu to winter's icy grip and revel in the springtime splendor, there's an undeniable buzz in the air. And I'm not just talking about the caffeine-induced excitement coursing through our veins (though that's certainly a factor).

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: MARCH 2024

Top of the mornin' to ya, coffee champions! With St. Patrick's Day and March Madness converging in a whirlwind of excitement, it's time to don our jerseys and shamrocks and raise a toast with a mug of Irish coffee in hand. As the brackets heat up and buzzer-beaters abound, we're embracing the madness with a dash of Irish charm and a splash of whiskey (just don't tell the leprechauns). But amidst the hoopla and celebrations, let's not forget the real MVP – coffee!

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: JANUARY 2024

Greetings, fellow coffee enthusiasts! As we gear up for the Super Bowl showdown between the Chiefs & 49ers, the excitement is palpable, albeit tempered by the fact that this match-up lacks the thrill of an underdog story or the novelty of a fresh rivalry, having seen these teams face off not so long ago in 2020. Yet, with the promise of an entertaining halftime show featuring Usher, we're ready to settle in for a good time. Also, as we approach the end of January, this week teasing us with almost spring-like weather, we're reminded…

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: NOVEMBER 2023

Welcome back to our caffeinated rendezvous! With Thanksgiving leftovers now devoured and the humorously coined "Black out Friday" in the rearview mirror (cheers to all those post-turkey drinks!), we've officially crossed into the holiday season. Now the tunes of the festive season have started their annual conquest of our eardrums, and though Christmas music isn't exactly my jam, I'll raise a cup to those who revel in it. That said, let’s make sure we…

CAFE SESSION WITH STEVE: OCTOBER 2023

Welcome back to another exciting Café Session! As the ghostly apparitions of Halloween fade into the background and the Halloween costumes have been packed away, (no more debates about whether dressing as a coffee bean is too cliché), leaving behind a trail of sweet memories and sugar-induced shivers, we find ourselves basking in the aromatic embrace of November. And, let's face it, the chill in the air feels like a wake-up call even before that first sip of morning brew. Halloween was a blast, no doubt, but it brought with it a spine-tingling reminder that winter's icy grasp is inching closer…

Greetings, dear coffee enthusiasts, and a warm welcome to our latest Café Session! As we stand on the doorstep of October, it's astonishing how swiftly the seasons have shifted. The lazy days of summer have gracefully given way to the crisp embrace of autumn evenings. Fortunately, this transition has been gentle, allowing us to relish the milder weather and begin to fully immerse ourselves in the magic of the season. In the world of sports…
