In this deeply moving and expansive episode of Soulful Self-Care Conversations, Pearl welcomes Silvia Resnik, a life purpose coach whose journey spans continents, cultures, grief, healing, and awakening.
This conversation explores what happens when success on the outside no longer matches how we feel on the inside — and what it truly means to reconnect with yourself when you’ve spent a lifetime wearing roles, expectations, and emotional armor.
Silvia shares her personal story of growing up as a lone-born twin, navigating lifelong melancholy, depression, and identity questions — and how her experiences in Tanzania with the Maasai people sparked a profound reconnection to joy, belonging, and purpose.
This episode is raw, honest, and expansive — touching on grief, family reconciliation, spirituality, healing modalities, and the courage it takes to live an authentic life.
