50 : My Story & Vision for The Mindful FIRE Podcast with Adam Coelho

"I want Mindful FIRE to create opportunity for people to live meaningful and fulfilled lives, aligned with their values and purpose, by connecting them with the ideas of mindfulness and financial independence. " - Adam Coelho

Welcome to the mindful fire podcast where we explore living mindfully on the path to financial independence and beyond. I'm your host, Adam Coelho and I'm so glad you're here.

On today's episode of the podcast, I'm excited to bring you my first solo episode. I've been doing the mindful fire podcast for almost a year and a half now and have produced over 60 episodes in meditations. But I realized I haven't truly introduced myself to you or talked about why I'm doing the mindful fire podcast in the first place.

 And so that's what I want to get into today, who I am, why I'm doing The Mindful FIRE Podcast and what my vision is for the podcast.

And at the end of the episode I make a special announcement and share details for my upcoming Life Envisioning Workshop happening in January. If you'd like to be notified when registration opens for that workshop you can sign up at MindfulFIRE.org/vision.

I also just want to say thank you so much for listening to the podcast and supporting my work. The podcast recently surpassed 5,000 downloads and I'm absolutely blown away and so excited that people are finding the content valuable coming back to hear new episodes and sharing with your friends.

And if you're reading this, you're one of those people. And so I just wanted to take a moment to tell you how much I appreciate you and to say thank you  for all the support you've given me in listening  to the podcast and sharing with your friends.

PS: Introducing the… 🔥 FIRE Starter Group Coaching Program

You did the “money” part. You saved, invested, and built real options. But if you’re being honest… FU money alone isn’t enough—and you might still feel stuck in “one more year syndrome,” unclear on what you actually want next.

In 10 weeks or less, we’ll help you get clear on what you want—and start living it now—using envisioning, mindfulness, and practical mini-experiments (not endless overthinking).

Interested? Let’s chat: https://mindfulfire.org/chat

🔥 WHO I’m creating this for

This is for you if you’re at or near FI (Coast FI or full FIRE) and:

• You feel stuck after “doing everything right,” but you’re not sure what you’re optimizing for anymore.
• You’re caught between freedom and overwhelm (“I could do anything… so I do nothing”).
• You want clarity and momentum—but you don’t want someone to tell you what to do.

🔥 WHAT we’ll do together (over 10 weeks)

In a small group (mastermind-style), you’ll:

• Get clear on what you actually want (beyond expectations, comparison, and “shoulds”).
• Create a big, meaningful vision for your next chapter—one that fits who you are now.
• Learn the brain science behind envisioning (why it works, and how to use it).
