Reignite with Reet

What if the missing link in your growth wasn’t a system or strategy, but someone who believes in your vision as much as you do?

In this episode, Stephanie Bowles—founder of Goalgetters Collab—shares how she’s creating a space where women entrepreneurs don’t just dream big—they take bold, courageous action. She gets real about the gap between having a vision and actually making it happen, and why pairing visionaries (big-picture dreamers) with integrators (practical problem-solvers) can change everything.

From the evolution of her membership to the challenges women face in leadership, Stephanie pulls back the curtain on the power of community, the kind of accountability that actually works, and why success feels different when it’s built on your own terms.

If you’ve been trying to do it all alone—or wondering why your next level still feels out of reach—this conversation might be the shift you’ve been looking for.

What if the key to healing isn't just understanding our pain, but actually feeling it in our bodies?

A transformative conversation exploring emotional vulnerability, mental health, and holistic healing practices. We dive into DBT techniques, somatic therapy, and the profound shifts that come with life transitions like perimenopause and menopause.

Join us as we speak with René Connolly, a trauma-informed mental health counselor and somatic educator based in Hawaiʻi, who blends clinical expertise with body-based healing to support clients through complex trauma and relational challenges. René specializes in weaving together Somatic Experiencing, DBT, and breathwork, and serves as Partnership Director at Moms on Mushrooms, where she guides women through safe and intentional microdosing journeys. Her integrative approach creates space for nervous system healing and authentic self-connection, believing that true healing happens through felt experience rather than insight alone.

This conversation goes beyond surface-level wellness to explore releasing stored trauma, finding your voice, and embracing radical self-acceptance through embodied practices.

What happens when you start leading with your whole self?

In this episode, Fé María Vásquez—filmmaker, fine artist, and founder of Fé Vásquez Fine Art—shares her journey from Caracas to Hawai‘i, and what it meant to rebuild her career, identity, and sense of self from the ground up. She reflects on navigating a male-dominated industry as a woman and an immigrant, and how she taught others to respect her by respecting herself first.

Fé dives into motherhood, divorce, and the vulnerability of art-making. She shares the emotional reality of letting her teenage son move across the world to pursue his dream—and how that mirrored her own early decision to pursue film despite being told she’d “starve as an artist.”

We talk about leadership, emotional intelligence, and why personal development isn’t a luxury—it’s a responsibility. Fé’s story is a reminder that your identity isn’t a limitation. It’s your power.

How can our dedication to mindfulness also be an act of rebellion?

In this episode, Dr. Gaby Toloza—psychologist, mindfulness coach, and founder of The Mindful Rebels Collective—shares what it means to reject hustle culture, embrace emotional freedom, and meet life's challenges with curiosity instead of judgment. She dives into her experiences working in prisons, protection centers, and private practice, and what they have taught her about the resilience of the human spirit.

With over 20 years of experience supporting families, individuals, and communities through grief, trauma, and growth, Dr. Gaby goes all in on mental health, motherhood, and the quiet power of trusting yourself. We explore the power of slowing down, how mindfulness can help us access more self-trust, and why the stories we tell ourselves matter.

In this conversation, we discuss:

• Why mindfulness is rebellion in a hustle-driven world
• How to rebuild self-trust and live aligned with your values
• Lessons from working with diverse communities in healing
• The intersection of science and soul in mental health
• Creating safer spaces for authentic connection and growth

What if the path to healing meant letting go of who you’ve always been—and learning to breathe your way back to who you really are?

In this episode of Reignite with Reet, Reet welcomes Andrea Migliore, a retired military officer, mother, coach, and breathwork facilitator whose journey has spanned war zones, divorce, motherhood through IVF, and a powerful return to self.

Together, they explore the unraveling that happens when we shed roles we’ve long held—soldier, wife, perfectionist—and reflect on profound questions about who we truly are. Andrea shares how the military saved her life, how motherhood reshaped her values, and how breathwork became the tool that cracked her open.

They dive into parenting with presence, navigating pressure and people-pleasing, and learning to trust their inner knowing instead of chasing approval. From sending shoes to children in Iraq to quiet, intuitive moments with her son, Andrea’s story is a testament to resilience and personal development.

If you’ve ever felt like you had to “hold it all together” or wondered what’s left when old identities fall away, this episode is an invitation to breathe deeper, soften the grip, and reconnect to your inner badass (we know she’s in there). Let’s reignite!

What if you stopped caring about what they think—and started trusting what you know?

In this episode of Reignite with Reet, we sit down with Lyne Frank, an educator, coach, and best-selling author who’s navigating midlife with courage, creativity, and a deep commitment to personal growth.

Together, they explore what it means to move through fear of failure, unlearn social conditioning, and embrace the messy beauty of self-discovery. They dig into how building intentional friendships, navigating the loneliness of entrepreneurship, and releasing people-pleasing can open the door to real clarity and self-trust.

Lyne shares how writing, grounding practices, and gathering in community have helped her reconnect with her purpose—and how choosing herself became the catalyst for something bigger.

If you’re a woman in midlife feeling the weight of old expectations or the pull toward something more true, this episode is your permission slip to get honest, get grounded, and choose a path that actually fits.
