Today we’d like to introduce you to Kangie Rae.
Hi Kangie, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstory with our readers?
The path to becoming Bliss Haven Collective began with a major life pivot. Last year, Kangie made the difficult decision to leave her marriage and rebuild life as a single mom with her two boys. Like many people navigating a big transition, she found herself in a space where she had years of experience and a strong skill set, but struggled to find work that truly aligned with the life she wanted to create for her family.
Around that same time, she learned that a wellness studio she had long admired—and previously rented space from for her Walking Earth art meditations—was for sale. The timing felt almost surreal. Her house was in the process of selling, and the equity from that sale would become the foundation for whatever came next. Purchasing the business meant putting essentially all of that equity on the line. It was a huge risk, especially with kids depending on her, but it also felt like a moment where she had to choose the future she wanted to build for them and for herself. She decided to take the leap.
A few months into running the business, another unexpected piece of the story unfolded. She met Meghan and quickly discovered that she had also been planning to purchase the studio if Kangie hadn’t moved forward. What could have been a missed opportunity for either of them instead turned into something much more aligned. They connected immediately and realized they shared a very similar vision for what the space could become.
Meghan, also a single mother, brings her own depth of experience to the partnership as an NLP practitioner who has navigated and overcome significant life obstacles of her own. Their shared values, resilience, and commitment to personal growth created a natural foundation for collaboration.
It didn’t take long before it felt right to join forces. Meghan came on as a partner, and together they began reimagining the business. They rebranded and announced Bliss Haven Collective in January 2026, launched their app, and are currently in the final stages of completing the new website.
Kangie now works as an Embodiment Practitioner, supporting clients through body-based practices that help release emotional imprints, restore energetic balance, and reconnect people to their authentic selves. Meghan complements this work through her NLP sessions, where she guides clients in shifting subconscious patterns and integrating new perspectives. Her sessions also incorporate an aura scan device, offering additional insight into energetic patterns and helping clients deepen their self-awareness and integration. Together, Kangie and Meghan lead the collective with a shared intention to live and operate in alignment with the highest good of all—a philosophy that shines through in the experiences they create and the community they are building.
What started as a leap of faith during a very uncertain season of life has grown into something much bigger than imagined: a space devoted to helping people reconnect with themselves, move through life’s thresholds with support, and experience wellness in a deeply embodied way. In many ways, the courage it took to begin was rooted in their roles as mothers. They wanted their children to see what it looks like to choose alignment, take meaningful risks, and build a life that reflects their values.
In many ways, the work they now offer mirrors that same journey—supporting people as they move through their own turning points, reconnect with themselves, and step more fully into who they are becoming.
I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
It definitely hasn’t been a smooth road, but it has absolutely been worth it. Like many small businesses, there’s a lot people don’t see behind the scenes. Running a business is already a full-time commitment, but what we’ve created at Bliss Haven Collective is really several businesses operating under one roof.
We run a full and diverse calendar of offerings, which means we’re constantly coordinating events, practitioners, and community experiences. Each month we host our free Aligned Living workshop series, weekly sound baths, somatic membership classes, breathwork collaborations, retreat days, and meditative art gatherings. The space also holds private events like baby showers, mother blessings, intimate weddings, ecstatic dance nights, and even open mic events.
Alongside the events, we also host Kalie and the Coven Boutique, offer shared therapy and consultation room rentals, and maintain a lounge space where guests can relax and enjoy a self-serve menu of cacao, tea, coffee, and healthy snacks. When you add it all together, it’s essentially like running four different businesses at once.
There have definitely been moments where the learning curve, logistics, and responsibilities feel like a lot. But at the same time, we feel incredibly grateful. Watching people walk through the doors, find community, and reconnect with themselves makes all of the effort behind the scenes deeply meaningful. It reminds us why we took the leap in the first place.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
At Bliss Haven Collective, our work centers around creating spaces where people can slow down, reconnect with themselves, and experience wellness in a deeply embodied and accessible way. While many wellness spaces focus on a single modality, what sets us apart is the way we bring a variety of practices together under one roof to support the whole person—body, mind, and energy.
Our offerings include embodiment work, somatic movement, breathwork, sound healing, meditation, and NLP-based integration sessions, along with creative and community-centered experiences like meditative art, ecstatic dance, and open mic nights. Kangie specializes in embodiment work that supports clients in releasing stored emotional patterns and reconnecting with the wisdom of the body, while Meghan offers NLP sessions that help people shift subconscious beliefs and integrate change, incorporating insights from her aura scan technology.
What we’re most proud of is the environment we’ve created. Bliss Haven Collective isn’t just a studio or event venue—it’s a community hub where people can gather, learn, celebrate, and move through life’s transitions with support. On any given month we host everything from weekly sound baths and somatic classes to free personal growth workshops, retreat days, and private ceremonies like mother blessings or intimate weddings.
Our intention is to cultivate a space where people feel safe to explore, grow, and be authentically themselves. We lead the collective with a shared commitment to living and operating in alignment with the highest good of all, and that intention tends to ripple through everything that happens in the space.
More than anything, we’re proud of the community that has formed here. Watching people come in as strangers and leave feeling connected—to themselves and to each other—is what makes this work so meaningful.
Do you any memories from childhood that you can share with us?
Kangie’s: Anything outdoors, it’s hard to choose. Boating, fishing, camping, snowboarding, being in nature has always grounded and inspired me. There aren’t words to describe the way I experience a sunset at the top of a mountain.
Meghan’s: One of my most favorite childhood memories is exploring in the forest with my dad, stepmom and siblings. We collected acorns that we made crafts with. I felt so small in the forest and everything around me felt so vast. My stepmom would imagine with me that there were fairies living in the forest and the whole thing felt magical.
