In this powerful episode of Emotional Business, Olga Skipper is joined by Dana Pavlychko—entrepreneur, transformation mentor, strategic advisor, and co-founder of Empower Impact Academy.
Dana’s story is anything but ordinary: she rebuilt her life and career after fleeing Ukraine with her family, sold her publishing business in the middle of a crisis, completed her Executive MBA at Oxford, and now helps leaders thrive in chaos—not by escaping it, but by moving through it with purpose and clarity.

- What effortless resilience really means (and how to develop it)
- How Dana pivoted careers, countries, and industries without losing her core self
- The mindset shift that helped her lead a transformation—from burnout to joy
- The reality of building a meaningful career while raising three young kids
- Why motherhood makes her a better leader—and vice versa
Whether you're a founder, a mother, in transition, or simply questioning your next move—this conversation will shift your thinking on what it means to live and lead with purpose, even in uncertain times.
