Adventure, Advocacy & Influence with Emily Hibard

We’re back with another incredible episode of the She Speaks podcast, and this time, we’re joined by Emily Hibard—an adventurer, author, nonprofit leader, and advocate for justice. Emily’s life is anything but ordinary. She has traveled to all seven continents, climbed Mount Kilimanjaro, kayaked in Antarctica, and explored some of the world’s most historic places. But beyond her travels, Emily is a calculated risk-taker with a deep passion for helping others, advocating for justice, and empowering change. From starting a nonprofit recording studio to working with trafficked women and those leaving the commercial sex industry, Emily has dedicated her life to making a lasting impact. She currently serves on the national board of the Hoving Home and was elected to the Los Alamitos City Council in 2022. Emily’s story is a powerful reminder that God calls us to step out in faith, take risks, and use our influence for good. We pray this episode inspires and equips you to live boldly in your purpose!

✨ In this episode, you’ll hear about:

  • Emily’s bold journey of adventure, leadership, and faith

  • Her passion for nonprofit work and advocacy

  • Fighting human trafficking and empowering survivors

  • How faith has guided her in politics and public service
