Finding Strength in the Ashes: Angie Leone’s Story of Resilience after the Lahaina Wildfires
Description
When everything you’ve built disappears overnight, how do you begin again?
In this episode, we sit down with Angela “Angie” Leone, founder of Coconut Condos in Maui, to share a story of loss, faith, and rebirth after the devastating Lahaina wildfires.
Just days after finding a buyer for her thriving vacation rental company, Angie’s world changed forever. The wildfires destroyed her office, her vehicles, and 45 of the 50 homes she managed — a lifetime of work gone in an instant.
But what followed wasn’t the end of her story.
Through faith, family, and community, Angie found a way forward, creating new meaning, new strength, and a renewed sense of purpose in the ashes.
She opens up about:
1️⃣ The day Lahaina burned and how her family faced unimaginable loss together
2️⃣ The “5 Fs” that became her foundation for resilience: Faith, Family, Fitness, Friends, and Focus
3️⃣ The healing power of cold plunges, saunas, and daily routines
4️⃣ Building the Lahaina Dreamers Cohort: a community helping women rediscover purpose after tragedy
5️⃣The power of faith, perseverance, and post-traumatic growth
