What does it take to transform an idea into a movement? Prepare to be inspired in this episode of The Fire Inside Her, where host Diane Schroeder connects us to the journey of Tina Guiller, the innovative mind behind a line of dolls that’s changing perceptions and encouraging young girls to envision themselves as firefighters. You’ll discover how Tina’s entrepreneurial spirit helped her navigate change, led her through the maze of overseas production, got her through a global pandemic, and led her to seek mentorship from top-tier business minds. Hear how a touching story from a grateful mother redefined Tina’s purpose, and hear the exciting news that’s on the horizon for this impactful project. You’ll also learn about the community for women Tina has launched, kindness in leadership, a bit on generational gifts, and the importance of play. This episode is a powerful testament to perseverance and community—don’t miss it. 

Tina Guiler has been as a Lieutenant for the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue since 1999. She is a firefighter, paramedic and fire inspector. She also co-manages the prominent Facebook group “Fierce Female Firefighters,” which was originally founded in 2013 by her colleague and friend. This group was created as a supportive platform where female firefighters could convene to tackle common issues in the fire service and support one another. The private group has over 7,200 female firefighters from 58 different countries. It is the largest social media group and support network for women in the fire and EMS services. She also designed the female firefighter plush dolls to help inspire & empower little girls and show them they can be anything, even a firefighter.
