Sheena Johnson on Burnout, Healing, and Strong Black Women
In this powerful episode of Voices of Resilience, host Mary Mosoeunyane speaks with Sheena Johnson, a transformational coach, specialist nurse, and founder of Priority to Wellness. Drawing from over two decades in healthcare, Sheena opens up about her journey through professional burnout, personal grief, and rediscovering purpose beyond the demands of caregiving.
Sheena’s story begins in Jamaica and unfolds in the UK’s healthcare system, where she witnessed first-hand how Black women and nurses often carry invisible burdens. The expectation to stay strong, silent, and self-sacrificing, even at the expense of their own wellbeing. In conversation with Mary, she unpacks the cultural and systemic roots of the “strong Black woman” ideal, revealing how it can both inspire and harm. Together, they explore how silence in the workplace acts as a hidden pathogen, one that erodes confidence, health, and belonging.
Through her signature TrackU framework, Sheena offers practical tools for self-reflection, rest, and empowerment, showing that true resilience isn’t about pushing through pain, but about pausing, healing, and reclaiming joy. This heartfelt dialogue reminds us that wellness is not selfish. It’s essential.
Tune in for an honest and restorative conversation that challenges stereotypes, celebrates vulnerability, and champions a new definition of strength for women everywhere

Duchowość maryjna Fultona J. Sheena
The article concerns the Marian aspect of the spirituality of a well known American bishop, author of many publications, and famous preacher, Servant of God Fulton Sheen. The author shows, on the basis of Sheen’s most important publications, the bishop’s dogmatic teaching on Mother of God, the main forms of Marian piety put forward by him, and the idea of Her as a role model in the Christian spirituality. The Marian spirituality of Fulton Sheen, as early as in the pre‑conciliar time, realized generally ten aspects of devotion to the Blessed Virgin, which later Pope Paul VI indicated in his apostolic exhortation Marialis cultus, in 1974.Autor artykułu bada znaczenie Najświętszej Maryi Panny w duchowości amerykańskiego biskupa Fultona J. Sheena. Pokazuje duchowość maryjną jako aspekt duchowości chrześcijańskiej, opartej na wzorze postawy Matki Bożej. Jego duchowość, oparta na biblijnych i dogmatycznych podstawach, realizuje się w specyficznej pobożności maryjnej. Autor najpierw ukazuje obraz Maryi, jaki wyłania się z pism Sheena. Następnie omawia najważniejsze formy pobożności maryjnej. Na koniec, ukazując jej wzorczość, zastanawia się, na ile ta forma duchowości spełnia zasady pogłębionej pobożności maryjnej zawartej w adhortacji Marialis cultus
Changing worlds of work and occupational health:Insights on working into older age
In order to gain greater insight into the reality of working into older age within a changing world of work, and any health implications of this, Helen has collaborated with Nina Day (a HSE specialist in workplace transport) and Sheena Johnson (an Occupational Psychologist at the University of Manchester, Alliance Manchester Business School), to gather evidence from the GB logistics and transport sector. This is a sector where the average age of the workforce is increasing, and where musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are already a significant problem. There is potential for the prevalence of MSDs to rise as the average age of the workforce continues to increase; with older workers already being more likely to have multiple health conditions.In this short article Helen sets out some of the key findings from her collaborative research on ageing and health in the GB logistics and transport sector. The full findings are published as a HSE research report (http://www.hse.gov.uk/research/rrhtm/rr1104.htm). However, before sharing the findings with you, she begins by setting these in context by briefly looking at some occupational health statistics, as well as HSE’s health priorities, and working into older age

Confidence in Motion: Building Leadership and Visibility in Exercise Science Careers
Success in exercise science and kinesiology requires more than academic excellence or technical skill—it requires confidence, visibility, and the ability to communicate your expertise. In this keynote, WSJ-bestselling author Sheena Yap Chan (The Tao of Self-Confidence, Bridging the Confidence Gap) shares how students can overcome self-doubt, advocate for themselves in research and professional spaces, and step into leadership roles early in their careers. Drawing from her own journey and stories from hundreds of professionals she has interviewed, Sheena will equip students with tools to present research confidently, network authentically, and translate their knowledge into impact. This session inspires the next generation of exercise science leaders to not only excel academically but also become visible voices advancing health and human performance.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this session, students will be able to:
1. Identify confidence barriers that affect how they present their skills, research, and professional goals.
2. Apply visibility strategies—storytelling, presence, and advocacy—in academic and career advancement.
3. Create a personal “Confidence Roadmap” to prepare for graduate school applications, interviews, and professional opportunities
