Meet Samantha

Hi there! I’m Samantha – multi-passionate writer, seeker, safe space holder. Believe it or not, that sentence has taken me decades to write.


WHERE I WAS


As a young adult, I struggled to find my way, my purpose, my passion. I struggled to make decisions and often failed to honor commitments made to others and even to myself. I was a mess of contradictions and confusion, hopping from one job to another on an annual basis with a resume that screamed flight-risk. I threw myself into relationships that were predestined to end and take me down with them.


I was 95% defeated and 5% hopeful. There were moments when I dreamt about a better life and how I could get there, but most of the time, I felt defeated and alone. What was the point of all this pain, confusion, and failure upon failure? I felt like a jerk for wasting so much time and resources doing everything wrong. I was broken and unrecognizable to myself.


MY A-HA MOMENT
 

It wasn’t one moment that shifted things for me. It was a series of events – panic attacks and gut-wrenching nausea – that pushed me to pay attention. I finally realized that if I wanted to stop feeling like a total fuck-up, I had to get real with myself, take an honest stock of my life, and respond with meaningful action. We need to be willing to put our energy where our hearts are. 
 

MY LIFE ON THE OTHER SIDE


Today, I do life differently. I learned to take in the present and be where my feet are. Through the hard work of building awareness and prioritizing resolute honesty, I met myself where I was and been here ever since. I stopped trying to control everything, made space for the unexpected, and honored the natural progression of life around me. What a gift that has been.
 

My journey inspired me to help others by sharing the trials, triumphs, and lessons learned along the way.
