Resilience

Lin Schussler-Williams, Brooke Haynes, and Holly Hartman Season 1 Episode 23

In this heart-centered and deeply reflective episode of Wise Women Collective Radio, hosts Lin Schussler Williams, Brooke Haynes, and Holly Hartman explore the many layers of resilience—not just as a survival mechanism, but as a conscious, empowered way of living.

Together, they unpack:
 • The true meaning of resilience (and how we often define it for ourselves)
 • How trauma, identity, and early life experiences shape our resilience
 • The difference between numbing and navigating
 • Why community, creativity, and connection are essential for healing
 • The tension between holding on to resilience as a superpower vs. letting go to grow
 • How women can reclaim resilience as a tool for leadership, unity, and change

Each host vulnerably shares their personal stories—from early abandonment, birth mother grief, and patriarchal conditioning to how they now build visionary, community-driven spaces rooted in radical authenticity and inner alignment.

💬 Key Quote:
“Your resilience is not survival—it’s active transformation. You don’t just endure—you grow through it.”
