This week on Behind the Mic, Wize is joined by Rachel Renee — co-host of Holdin’ Court Podcast and founder of Goat Moves Inc., a tech platform designed to support small and medium-sized businesses with the infrastructure they need to thrive.

Rachel shares how her journey through tech, entrepreneurship, and family legacy led her to the mic. She opens up about building a business in the middle of a pandemic, embracing visibility after nearly a decade off social media, and finding purpose through community impact and innovation.

She also joins Wize for a round of Overrated or Underrated — and let’s just say, she’s got thoughts on podcast panels, polyester, and bringing tailoring back in style.

Quote of the Episode:

“Now that I’ve conquered this fear of being seen… I love it ’cause it’s been more beneficial than detrimental.” — Rachel Renee

Staying Well as an Island Woman | Island Woman Podcast

In today’s episode, I’m talking about why wellness is especially important to me as an Island Woman surrounded by a high incidence of non-communicable diseases – like diabetes, hypertension and cancer – and 3 things I’m doing to stay well.

This topic is very near and dear to my heart and wellness conversations are ones I’m always willing to have. But wellness actions are even more important to me.

If you have wellness tips to share, especially for women over 50, drop them in the comments. Let’s all learn together.

On this episode of Behind the Mic: Powered by REVOLT Podcast Network, we sit down with Chanelle Reynolds — host of not one, but two podcasts on the network: The Success Playbook and The Double Dose Podcast. From her work in the NFL to her passion for podcasting, Chanelle is carving out space for Black stories and Black excellence in every room she enters.

She talks about her journey in sports, navigating major transitions at the Washington Commanders, and how mentorship and DEI work are central to her identity both on and off the mic.

B-Sides Track of the Week

Chanelle takes it to church with Marvin Sapp’s “Praise Him in Advance.” A gospel pick that keeps her grounded, uplifted, and aligned — especially as her name continues to rise.

“You can’t take DEI out of sports. It didn’t start with us, so it’s not gonna end with us.” – Chanelle S. Reynolds
