About Resilient Voices - empowering women to transformation
Resilient Voices – In Leadership & Life is a podcast about resilient leadership when change is hard.
Hosted by Jessica Schultz, the show features honest conversations with women and men who’ve faced real leadership pressure—burnout risk, loss, reinvention, and high-stakes transitions.
You won’t find polished “overnight success” stories. Instead, you’ll hear grounded turning points and the behaviours, decisions, and practices leaders use to move forward with intention, integrity, and courage.
Whether you’re leading a team, rebuilding after setbacks, or trying to protect your energy and effectiveness under pressure—this is for you.
Real stories. Human leadership. True resilience.
From Shame to Self-Leadership: Emilies Healing Journey
In this powerful episode of Resilient Voices Podcast, Jessica sits down with Emilie Sickinghe — a social impact leader turned healer — to explore her raw and transformative journey through bulimia, ADHD, shame, and self-discovery.
Emilie shares how she learned to look beyond symptoms and diagnoses to uncover the root causes of her struggles, and how healing became a deep inner journey guided by self-love, soul, and heart-centered leadership.
Together, they unpack how societal norms pathologize pain, how transgenerational trauma shapes our patterns, and why true healing — and true leadership — begins with radical self-compassion and authenticity.
This conversation is an invitation to stop asking "what's wrong with me?" and start asking "what happened, and what wants to heal?"
💛 If you've ever felt labeled, broken, or disconnected from yourself — this episode will remind you: you are not that, and you can heal fully.

From Street Leadership to Self-Leadership: The Battle No One Prepares You For
From Commanding the Streets to Leading Myself: What Marc's Body Taught Him About Real Resilience
20 years on the front lines of the LAPD. Decades of leading through chaos, crisis, and command. Then one day, Marc's own body staged the hardest leadership test of his life — an autoimmune diagnosis that forced him to lead himself before he could lead anyone else.
In this raw, unfiltered episode, Marc Hildebrand shares his journey from commanding the streets to confronting the one person he never trained to lead: himself.
🎙️ In this episode, we explore:
⚡ What 20 years in law enforcement taught Marc about leadership under pressure⚡ The autoimmune diagnosis that changed everything⚡ Why leading yourself is harder than leading a team⚡ The connection between fatherhood, identity, and resilience⚡ How Marc built High Impact Mastery Academy from personal transformation⚡ What real resilience looks like when your body won't cooperate with your plans
Quote from the episode:"I could command a team through chaos. But the hardest leadership test I ever faced was learning to lead myself."

When Your Body Screams: A Burnout Story + Resilience Reset Kit
Resilience Voices episode 41 (Special Edition): My Burnout Breakthrough + The Resilience Reset Kit
In this episode of Resilience Voices, host Jessica Schultz steps in with a solo share—because sometimes life pauses the plan… and forces you to listen.
Today isn’t an interview. It’s a personal short story from Jessica’s own experience with burnout—including the “high-functioning” signs she ignored for too long, the moment she realised her body wasn’t giving advice… it was sending an alarm, and what helped her return to herself.
Because recovery isn’t just about pushing less. It’s about learning how to reset your nervous system, calm the mind, and rebuild your energy with tools that actually work in real life.
And that’s where The Resilience Reset Kit comes in.
The Resilience Reset Kit includes four guided meditations and breathing practices to calm your mind, restore your energy, and bring you back to yourself. Get access to the kit here: Get access here
If you’re a high achiever who’s been running on stress, pushing through, or feeling depleted but still “functional,” this episode is your reminder: you don’t have to wait until you break to choose support.
