Episode 14: Bringing Summer Vibes to the Colorado Cold
Brrr, it’s cold in here! But don’t worry, we’re about to warm things up! On this episode, Carly and Lauren are diving into all the best ways to beat the winter blues in Colorado Springs. From hot yoga and cozy cafés to wave pools, tiki bars, and even mermaid school (yes, really!), we’re finding summer in the middle of a snowstorm.
Plus, we chat with Little Fins Swim School about why now is the best time to get your kids prepped for water safety. And let’s be real—these instructors have heard it all from kids (and parents), so expect some hilarious behind-the-scenes stories!
So grab your warmest drink (or flaming tiki cocktail) and join us as we uncover the best places to escape the chill!
Let’s dive in!
