What if the "perfect life" is actually the most convincing hiding place for emptiness? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Sylvia Resnick, a fulfillment and purpose coach for high-achieving women. Sylvia shares how a lifelong ache for connection shaped her drive to achieve. The conversation also goes deeper into the tension between honoring cultural traditions and evolving practices that harm women, including the urgent reality of female genital mutilation and how Sylvia's organization, Empower Her, is working from within community partnership to create change through education, support, and empowerment. What You Will Learn: Why "looking successful" can coexist with feeling emotionally empty. How early experiences of not feeling seen can quietly shape adult identity, ambition, and relationship patterns. The hidden motivation behind perfectionism: trying to earn love, belonging, and "enoughness." Why external achievements don't automatically create self-worth. How a single experience of deep community can interrupt lifelong loneliness and recalibrate what matters. What true connection can feel like in the body. How indigenous culture can offer profound healing while still containing traditions that require conscious evolution. A grounded explanation of FGM in the Maasai context, including the rite-of-passage framing and the high human cost. Why sustainable change must be led from within a community, not imposed by outsiders. How education becomes a protection strategy for women and girls. What it means to "bridge two worlds" in coaching: bringing connection back to high achievers while also resourcing underserved communities. How travel can become transformational when it's relationship-centered rather than consumption-centered. What a purpose-led business transition can look like when it grows out of lived experience, not branding. Connect with Sylvia Resnick Simple Life Journey EmpowerHer Connect with Anjel B.

The conversation goes beyond filmmaking into the real-world implications of building “to code,” exposing why minimum standards often fail homeowners when disasters strike. George shares the motivation behind the documentary, the systemic issues uncovered during production, and why resilience, mitigation, and long-term thinking are missing from most housing decisions. Together, they explore how poor construction practices amplify disaster losses, why recovery is rarely straightforward, and what buyers, policymakers, and communities must understand before the next catastrophe. This episode is essential listening for anyone interested in disaster resilience, housing risk, emergency management, climate impacts, or the hidden vulnerabilities baked into modern development.

Constance grew up believing she shared the same father as her siblings, though she always sensed something was off. Decades later, an AncestryDNA test and unexpected messages from strangers unraveled the truth—leading her to her biological father living just 20 minutes away. Their emotional first meeting, the highs and lows of building a relationship at midlife, and Constance's journey toward grace, understanding, and identity make this a deeply meaningful NPE story.Constance can be reached via email constancethenpe@gmail.comNPE Stories PatreonNPE Stories facebook pagehttps://www.facebook.com/NPEstories

"We wake up every morning as a soul in a human body. That alone should be so incredibly fascinating to us." What if the hardest things you've lived through weren't punishments, but assignments your soul chose to help you grow? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Steffani LeFevour, modern-day soul strategist and author of You Are a Badass Mom and the forthcoming book Soul Assignments. Stteffani shares how childhood trauma, an alcoholic father, and the tragic loss of her sister cracked her open to a lifelong search for spiritual truth. What You Will Learn: The impact of childhood trauma and grief on emotional development and identity. How growing up with an alcoholic parent shapes beliefs, coping mechanisms and adulthood patterns. Why families often end up on "grief islands" when they lack tools, language or support to process loss. How early exposure to death can spark a lifelong search for meaning, spirituality and healing. The role spiritual teachers and books can play in offering language and comfort when religion wasn't present at home. How alcohol can become an unconscious way to avoid feelings, fit in socially, or suppress unresolved pain. What it looks like to break generational chains of addiction through awareness, boundaries and intentional behavior. How to examine your own relationship with alcohol and shift from unconscious use to empowered choice. The importance of creating an alcohol-free "safe house" environment for teens and modeling a different norm. The concept of soul assignments and how reframing painful experiences can move someone out of victimhood. Why radical acceptance of past experiences becomes the foundation for emotional freedom and conscious creation. How thoughts, words, feelings, beliefs and stories function as "power tools" that shape every experience. The difference between using those power tools unconsciously vs. consciously. How to identify outdated stories and rewrite them into truer, more empowering narratives. The process of finding gifts inside even the most difficult events and how that transforms inner resilience. The value of viewing life from a soul-level perspective rather than only through a human-level lens. The path from learning spiritual principles to embodying them, teaching them and serving others with them. How a long-held dream can manifest through clarity, courage and consistent sharing of one's message. Why owning your unique perspective allows your voice, work and mission to expand in powerful new ways. Connect with Steffani LeFevour Coach with Steph Connect with Anjel B.

"Horses don't care if you're afraid. They care if you're honest." In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Sue Willoughby, founder of Willoughby Coaching, certified equus coach, real estate investor, and a woman who has rewritten her life more times than most people dare to dream. Raised by a single alcoholic parent and a two-time high school dropout, Sue charted a path from instability to a six-figure career, a multidimensional portfolio of work, and a coaching practice rooted in the intuitive wisdom of horses. If you're feeling the whisper that something in your life or career needs to change, this episode gives you permission, perspective, and possibility. What You Will Learn: The emotional and psychological impact of being raised by a single alcoholic parent and how early instability can shape lifelong patterns of independence and resilience. What it feels like to reach the moment where corporate life becomes unbearable, and the emotional complexity of leaping from stability into entrepreneurship. How passion projects and side ventures can become bridges out of corporate life without risking everything at once. How horses instantly sense incongruence between what you say, what you feel, and what your body is actually communicating. Why humans store emotional stories in the body while horses process, react, and release without carrying narratives, resentment, or drama. How corporate teams can use horse-led experiences to learn authentic leadership, strengthen team dynamics, and understand each other's communication patterns. Why it is never too late to reinvent yourself, take risks, pursue a new career, or bring long-buried creative visions into reality. A simple daily practice for reconnecting with presence and intuition. Connect with Sue Willoughby Willoughby Coaching Connect with Anjel B.

In this episode of ASCP Esty Talk, Ella and Maggie explore the difference between routine and ritual—and why it matters in self-care. Most of us go through the motions of skin care and wellness without truly being present, but when we shift from task to intention, even the simplest steps become transformative. To put this idea into practice, Ella and Maggie swap skin care rituals—each assigning one for the other that blends breathwork, visualization, affirmation, and a healthy dose of humor. The result is a conversation that's both grounding and giggleworthy, reminding us that real self-care isn't just what you do, it's how you do it.

Looking for more DTP Content? Check us our here: www.thereadinesslab.com/dtp-linksFor the 250th episode of the Disaster Tough Podcast, host John Scardena turns the mic on himself to share three core lessons that have shaped the show, his career, and how he shows up in the emergency services space: gratitude as a persona, how to influence, and “come what may and love it.” John starts with gratitude—not as a cliché, but as an intentional persona. With every guest and every episode, his rule has been: treat people with respect, even when you disagree, and appreciate the experience they bring to the table. That mindset has opened doors, deepened conversations, and kept the online persona aligned with the person he is in real life. He then breaks down how influence actually works. Influence isn't just about title or rank; it's the compound effect of doing your homework, producing professional-grade work, building credibility over time, and treating people—at every level—as equals. He talks about moving from recording in a car under a blanket to hosting generals, chiefs, CEOs, and operators because the work quietly built trust before the big asks ever happened. Finally, John shares the philosophy of “come what may and love it”, quote by Joseph B. Worthlin —taking the long view through wildfires, family life, deployments, changing FEMA and grant environments, and the roller coaster of running a podcast and business. The message: accept the hard, adapt, keep your sense of humor, stay mission-focused, and don't run faster than you have strength.Major EndorsementsImpulseBleeding Control Kits by Professionals for Professionalshttps://www.impulsekits.comDoberman Emergency ManagementSubject matter experts in assessments, planning, and traininghttps://www.dobermanemg.comThe Readiness LabTrailblazing disaster readiness through podcasts, outreach, marketing, and interactive eventshttps://www.thereadinesslab.comFor Sponsorship Requestscontact@thereadinesslab.com314-400-8848 Ext 2#Leadership #Motivation #Mindset #Resilience #Inspiration #Success #Growth #Innovation #ProfessionalDevelopment #CareerDevelopment #SelfImprovement #PersonalGrowth #BusinessLeadership #LifeLessons #WorkCulture #PositiveLeadership #Goals #HumanPerformance #DecisionMaking #PublicSafety #EmergencyManagement #CrisisManagement #HomelandSecurity #MilitaryLeadership #FireService #LawEnforcement #FirstResponders #Veterans #DisasterResponse #Gratitude #Influence #MentalStrength #LongView #KeepGoing #NeverQuit #StayReady #LearningEveryDay

"I had my ladder on the wrong wall. I was putting all my energy into getting people to want McDonald's instead of Burger King. Who cares, really?" In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Kate Grant, CEO Emeritus of the Fistula Foundation and author of No Woman Left Behind. Kate explains what obstetric fistula is and how a relatively low-cost surgery can restore a woman's health. She shares the practical steps she took to move from advertising into nonprofit leadership and why investing in your own retooling can be the most powerful career move. If you're thinking about leaving corporate for mission-driven work, this episode is full of tactical and emotional wisdom. What You Will Learn: How working in advertising at big agencies means using dark arts of consumer research to create psychological needs for products. The decision process of choosing to go back to graduate school and completely retool rather than making a lateral move into nonprofit communications. The reality that career change doesn't happen on the plane ride home from your transformative trip, it happens gradually like a pair of shoes that doesn't fit anymore, and it takes time to empower that voice that says you're done with this chapter. What an obstetric fistula actually is. How women with fistula are often stigmatized and how they're frequently blamed for an injury that's caused by a lack of medical access. Why Fistula Foundation went from being one of several support organizations for a single hospital in Ethiopia to becoming the global leader doing more surgeries than the UN or US government. The strategic decision not to take government money. Why 90% of the fistula surgeries are successful and truly give women their lives back. The permanent pay cut that comes with leaving the private sector for nonprofit work.

At 50, I thought my body was broken. I knew everything about nutrition, but nothing was working anymore. In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Heather Awad, MD, a family doctor and certified coach, helps professional women in perimenopause and menopause lose weight without counting or deprivation. Learn why kindness precedes confidence, how insulin resistance shifts at midlife, and why moving from grazing to real meals restores energy, focus, and leadership clarity. Professional photos can be retaken. But kindness and confidence can start today. What You Will Learn: Why eating less and moving more, does absolutely nothing during perimenopause, revealing that something fundamentally different is happening in the body. The moment at age 50 of wondering if the body was broken and questioning how someone with extensive nutrition knowledge could be failing at weight management. How combining an understanding of the biology and nutrition of menopause with coaching to address emotional eating made weight loss simple and sustainable. Why many professional women including those in corporate leadership hold themselves back from seeking promotions or starting businesses because they feel their body isn't under control. The critical distinction that mindset work and being kind to yourself is a completely separate track from getting your body under control or losing weight. How kindness to yourself is the precursor to confidence, and that being kind doesn't cost anything except intention and time unpacking the parts of yourself that don't want to be kind. The fundamental difference between the weight loss world that asks us to work hard, measure, and count calories, versus nutrition that can be simple and nourishing without ever going hungry or counting anything. How our culture has normalized overeating to the point where having a stomach ache after meals seems normal. Why this meal-based eating pattern helps with the natural bump in insulin resistance that comes at menopause. The biological reality that when estrogen drops during menopause, it affects the entire body including digestive hormones. Why insulin resistance means the body suddenly needs much more insulin just to process the same food. Why grazing becomes the default feeding pattern during intense parenting years. Why nourishing your body becomes increasingly important at midlife. Connect with Heather Awad, MD Website Connect with Anjel B.
