    This week we're going to expand our view a little bit as we move out of the world of business resilience and crisis management and go out to the public sector view of Emergency Management. As we go inside the yellow tape. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 209 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week we're joined by emergency management professional and podcast host Laura James. Laura gives us a glimpse of life inside the yellow tape, including her view of the word "unprecedented" when it comes to disasters and emergencies. Laura says, EM professionals are paid 365 days a year to be prepared for the unprecedented. She talks about the Resilient Heroes podcast, which gives a voice to women in emergency management. Laura tells us that until you put the humanity into what you're doing - EM is just a job. And Laura's advice to women in emergency management is simple: Never say no.

    Episode 206 - Transitioning From Military to Civilian Life with Jodeci Solomon
    Oct 20 2025

    This week's guest is a soldier and a communications and cybersecurity specialist. He understands "mission first". He also operates against a standard in which his work must be squared away. These are two excellent qualities for someone who is transitioning from military to civilian life. Hello everyone and welcome to episode 206 of the Resilient Journey Podcast, presented by Anesis Consulting Group! This week we're joined by Jodeci Solomon, who has spent the past 7 years in active duty in the military. His job? To secure communications, cybersecurity, and cryptographic key management in the U.S. Army. But this episode is not about cyber or secure communications. As fulfilling as Jodeci's military career has been, it's time to move on. So this is about Jodeci's own resilient journey as he works to transition from his military career to civilian life. Jodeci's work ethic translates to a standard where it's not enough to be accurate, the work must be precise. .
