Finding Belonging, Purpose, and a Cause That Matters with Silvia Resnik – Ep.355
Episode 355
Wednesday, 17 December, 2025
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 Silvia Resnik, a fulfillment and purpose coach for high-achieving women. Silvia 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 Silvia'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 Silvia Resnik Simple Life Journey EmpowerHer Connect with Anjel B.
