Today, on Can’t Be Contained, I’m so excited to be joined by the incredible Heidi Stevens! Heidi is a powerhouse coach, speaker, and entrepreneur known for helping women embrace their full potential—with careers, families, and all the nuance in between. In this episode, Heidi and I go deep into the realities of female entrepreneurship, motherhood, and the art of living a life that’s totally aligned and energetically rich.
We get real about the ultimate initiation into motherhood—what’s joyful, what’s overwhelming, and how our identities shift when we step into new roles. Heidi opens up about her own “dark night of the soul,” how moving from L.A. to a San Diego ranch transformed her life, and why sometimes the bravest move is to slow down, simplify, and confront everything that’s out of alignment.
We talk about the messy truth behind building a business “like a man,” why it doesn’t work for every woman, and how the new wave of feminine leadership is actually about nurturing empires, not just building and scaling them. Heidi shares intimate stories about trusting your intuition, surviving burnout, and the power of rest over relentless hustle.
In this episode, we unpack:
➤ The spiritual and practical sides of motherhood—and how to make space for new energies (and kiddos!)
➤ Why sometimes success means burning it down or taking a long pause—and how to know which is right for you
➤ The journey from achievement-driven to energy-driven—creating a business model that’s rooted in alignment rather than overwhelm
➤ Rituals and practices for rest, nervous system nourishment, and coming home to self—plus why gardening, breathwork, and even microdosing mushrooms can be part of the path
➤ The vision for a new paradigm of feminine business, collective dreams, and leading from devotion instead of just consistency
Whether you’re a high-energy go-getter, a mom in the weeds, or a woman forging your own trail in business, this conversation is all about radical honesty, deep permission, and the courage to create an authentic, wild, and totally uncontained life.
Tune in to reclaim your energy, reconnect to your mission, and remember—you really can’t be contained!
Share this episode with a woman who inspires you and let’s keep building our dream lives, together.

Today, on Can’t Be Contained, I’m dropping into the FINAL chapter of our Burnout Series—and this one’s a game-changer. We’re talking all things Spiritual Burnout: what it is, how to spot it when it sneaks in, and the practical tools to find your way home to yourself and Source. I got real about my own experiences with that deep, soul-level exhaustion, and how “white-knuckling” your way through life isn’t the vibe.
In this episode, I’ll be sharing my personal toolkit for navigating the ache of spiritual disconnection—think: breathwork, service, surrender, and actionable ways to reestablish your connection to something greater. We’ll dig into the difference between living all grind, no grace versus actually letting yourself be held and guided. I’ll unpack golden research from Dr. Lisa Miller, and answer the big question: how can we hold all of life, without letting it get heavy?
Within today’s conversation, you’ll hear:
➤ How to recognize spiritual burnout (and why it hits hardest when life looks “fine” on the outside)
➤ The role of breathwork in coming back to Source
➤ Why service is spiritual, and how giving transforms you
➤ Letting go of doing it all, and allowing grace to move through your life
If you’ve been feeling numb, lost, or just over carrying the weight of the world alone, this episode is for you. It’s an invitation to drop what isn’t yours, tune into your own divine guidance, and trust that you’re never, ever alone. I’ll also share my go-to practices (like the Pause Breathwork app) to help you reconnect anytime, anywhere.
So take a breath, and join me as we get radically honest about burnout and reclaim your connection to Soul, Spirit, and true support. Whether you’re deep in burnout or just looking for more meaning, you’ll find tools and heart-centered wisdom you can’t afford to miss.
And if this episode resonates, make sure to subscribe, share, and send it to someone who needs a spiritual recharge—you never know whose day you might light up!

Alright, my loves—today on Can’t Be Contained, we’re jumping right into a topic that so many of you are quietly wrestling with… burnout. I’m back on the mic and, let me tell you, I had a hilarious flashback to my Hungry for Happiness days. (Yes, I almost welcomed you back to the wrong podcast! Maybe Hungry for Happiness will make a comeback one day—who knows?)
But listen, this episode is all about those sneaky signs of physical burnout. You know what I’m talking about: the irritation for no reason, blaming full moons and launches, overriding our nervous system with constant ambition. Whew. It’s exhausting. And it’s SO normalized in our culture to hustle ‘til it hurts, but honestly, it’s time to flip the script.
Here’s what we’re getting into:
➤ Why burnout is so silent and so easy to miss (until you’re deep in it)
➤ The science behind physical burnout and how your mitochondria are begging for some TLC
➤ How something as simple as breathwork can actually boost your energy, turn on your body’s healing, and even slow visible signs of aging (real talk: it took anti-aging research to finally get my mom on board!)
➤ The truth about slow productivity, doing less really well, and why your body needs you to rebel against hustle culture
Plus, I share a client story that will blow your mind: 20 minutes of breathwork a day turned her chronic fatigue completely around. We’re covering practical basics, too—food, water, sleep, all the stuff you already know, but probably aren’t doing. (Let’s be real.)
So if you’re feeling stuck, tired, or just “off,” this one is for you. Come hang with me, get rebellious, and let’s start restoring your body and your energy from the inside out. Oh—and if you’re not already on the Pause Breathwork app, grab your free 14-day trial. Trust me, you’ll want that lifeline when you forget just how powerful you actually are.
Don’t forget to subscribe and follow so we can keep pushing out the real-talk, high-value content every single week. Your support means everything—and I promise, I’ll keep pouring my heart into every episode.
Love your face. Let’s break burnout together!

Today on Can’t Be Contained, I’m diving deep into one of the most misunderstood—and straight-up sneaky—challenges most of us face in our lives: burnout. If you’re a go-getter, a high achiever, or just trying to keep up with all the demands of daily life, I see you, and I made this episode just for you!
This is the kickoff to a brand new mini-series where I tackle all the different faces of burnout—mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual. In this first episode, I’m zeroing in on mental burnout: what it looks like, why it’s especially rampant for women (hello, invisible labor and social pressure!), and exactly how I’ve learned to outsmart it over the past 15 years.
I’m sharing my own reflections, research, and honest stories about running on empty, plus the best tools I’ve discovered to reclaim my energy and sanity. I break down how burnout likes to hide—sometimes showing up as indecisiveness, mental fog, or just that “blah” feeling of losing yourself—and how you can actually batch, systemize, and delete so much of the mental overload that’s weighing you down.
I’ll walk you through:
➤ The real signs of mental burnout—and why it’s often overlooked
➤ How screen time and constant input fry our brains (and how I set boundaries with technology)
➤ The power of energy audits and making room for what truly nourishes you
➤ Why sometimes doing nothing is the most productive thing you can do
➤ How to stop wearing that Superwoman cape, ease up on the proving and performing, and actually feel freedom in your day-to-day
I talk about digital detoxes, breathwork resets (including how I use the Pause Breathwork app—go check out the Midday Reset track!), and why setting outrageously firm boundaries with your time is the biggest gift you can give yourself.
If you’re ready to ditch the overwhelm and reclaim your clarity, creativity, and life force—this episode is for you. Whether you’re a busy parent, in the midst of a big career, or just craving more space and ease, I hope these practices will support you in living a life that feels more free, connected, and completely uncontainable.
If this resonated with you, it would mean the world if you subscribe, share, or leave a review—the more of us who break free from burnout, the better. Here’s to living a life that truly can’t be contained—let’s do this together!

I’m here with a solo episode that honestly feels long overdue. I know we’ve done solo episodes before, but this time I’m diving into something I use every single day—a powerful tool that I’ve never actually dedicated a whole episode to until now: The 30 Second Reset.
Inspired by a heartfelt email from one of our listeners, Emily (thank you, love!), I’m sharing what to do when life feels overwhelming and emotions start to take over. Whether you find yourself losing your cool with your kids, getting caught in frustration, or just need a quick energetic reboot, this episode will walk you through how to shift your state quickly, reset your nervous system, and come back home to yourself in the span of just 30 seconds.
Inside, I cover:
➤ Why unfelt emotions don’t just disappear (and how they can snowball if we’re not mindful)
➤ How to check in with your energy before things spin out of control
➤ A step-by-step breakdown of my go-to 30 Second Reset breathwork practice—super simple, super effective
➤ How to use this practice anytime, anywhere (even if you’re handling a million things)
➤ Real-life examples from parenting, relationships, and everyday triggers, and how this tool helps me show up with more presence and power
You’ll also hear a bit about what’s new in the Pause Breathwork app, including our newest music and the most-loved sleep tracks, plus how you can get an exclusive extended trial as a listener.
If you try the 30 Second Reset, I’d absolutely love to hear from you—send me a DM or tag me and let me know how it impacted your day. And if this episode brought you value, please subscribe, rate, and share with someone who could use a little more calm and joy in their world.

Today on Can’t Be Contained, I’m bouncing off the walls (and sipping from my brand new, totally not sponsored Stanley Cup) to bring you a solo episode packed with everything you need to break free from burnout and actually feel alive again. Whether you’re in early stages of burnout, or feeling completely burnt out - I’ve got your back.
In this episode, I’m getting super real about what true, soul-level burnout looks like—and trust me, it’s more than just being tired. I’m talking about that deep, “I can’t even send a text” kind of fatigue that seeps into your bones and makes you question everything. But it’s not all doom and gloom! I’ll take you through why our culture is so good at numbing out with quick fixes and why it’s time to ditch the “band-aids on bullet wounds” and actually FEEL your emotions (spoiler: you are the drug, you hold your own antidote).
You’ll hear my rituals for reclaiming energy, how I use breathwork to regulate my nervous system, and why a simple identity shift is the real secret sauce for lasting change. Yep, I’ll even guide you through my favorite 30-second breathwork reset right here on the show!
Inside this episode, I’ll walk you through:
➤ Why burnout isn’t just physical exhaustion—it’s emotional, mental, and spiritual
➤ My signature Sunday energy audit ritual for identifying your true drains (and what to do about them)
➤ How turning towards your pain and emotions becomes pure life force (seriously, you’re that powerful)
➤ Simple, doable shifts—like breathwork, movement, and moments of stillness—that spark aliveness
➤ How to embody a new identity, so taking care of yourself becomes automatic rather than impossible
If you’re sick of white-knuckling your way through the day, ready to swap out overwhelm for inspiration, or just need a reminder that your energy and joy actually matter—this episode is for you. We’re talking practical steps and a radical permission slip to stop just surviving, and finally start thriving.
Subscribe, follow, and let the algorithm know you’re here for the vibes! I’m so grateful you’re tuning in, and I can’t wait to keep growing together. Remember, you CAN’T be contained—so let’s do this, together!

Today on Can’t Be Contained, I get to sit down with someone who is not only a dear friend, but one of the most honest, energizing voices I know—John Wang! John is a champion of Big Asian Energy (yes, he literally wrote the book on it!), an advocate for anyone who’s fought to be seen, and a living, breathing example of what happens when you shatter the boxes the world puts you in.
As I recorded this intro, I was literally packing for a Vegas keynote, thinking about how wild life gets when you set your intention and fully claim it. It’s not magic—it’s clarity. And clarity? That is where today’s conversation begins.
From there, John and I roll deep. Like, deep enough to laugh about our inner children, roasting each other about country music (Amy, we love you!), and unpacking what it actually took for both of us—after lifetimes of being the achievers, the pleasers, the strong ones—to let go of old scripts and let ourselves feel. Not just feel, but receive, expand, and own the space we’re meant for.
Listen in as John shares his journey growing up in a culture that taught him to silence his own greatness, how breakdown led to breakthrough (men’s group, what?!), and how being honest about the messiness actually brought more love—and power—into every area of his life.
Inside, we dig into:
➤ How a “burnout breakdown” became the catalyst for John’s true calling
➤ Rewriting the story of worthiness—especially for high achievers and “model minorities”
➤ The step-by-step way to bring your inner child (and all your parts!) back online so you can lead and love from wholeness
➤ Real tools for couples wanting more emotional connection, even if your partner “doesn’t get” inner work yet
➤ Why receiving—compliments, support, rest, JOY—matters just as much as being productive
If you’ve ever felt unseen, like you’re living below your potential, or trapped in patterns that just don’t fit anymore—this episode is your permission slip to break free. We talk relationships, power dynamics, joy over productivity (yes, I quit an $11 million offer that drained my soul!), and why “having it all together” is so last season.
This isn’t just about Asians, or men, or entrepreneurs—it’s about anyone who’s ready to let their light all the way out, even if it gets a little awkward, a little messy, or a LOT real.
Grab John’s new book Big Asian Energy and my free 3-minute breathwork for imposter syndrome, because whether you’re on the edge of a breakthrough or just searching for your voice—trust me, you are SO worthy. And the world needs exactly what only you can bring.
Join us as we laugh, get raw, and remind ourselves (and you!) that your energy cannot—will not—be contained.

Recently, I immersed myself in the transformative experience of our Advanced Energetics retreat. Picture a room filled with remarkable women, each letting go of their fears and stepping into their potential. It was a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we come together.
Standing by the pool at the retreat center, watching everyone connect and support each other, really drove home how impactful the Pause Breathwork community has become. We're doing more than just healing; we're discovering freedom and potential through somatic practices.
Alongside these reflections, I delve into the evolution of coaching in the age of AI. While driving to a dance class, I tested ChatGPT with a business decision, and I was surprised by the insight it provided. Still, it reaffirmed for me that human connection and the body's wisdom are irreplaceable, especially in somatic coaching where genuine change happens.
This is also a last call for anyone interested in the 2025 Somatic Coaching certification—a six-month journey of becoming a certified coach while deeply understanding and harnessing your gifts. It’s about making an impact in ways that truly matter.
In this episode, I explore:
➤ The essential role of human connection and intuition in coaching
➤ Why somatic coaching is crucial for lasting transformation
➤ Adapting to the future of coaching with AI advancements
Join me as we explore why "AI cannot replace human connection" and how integrating somatic tools can elevate your coaching practice. Whether you’re a coach, passionate about personal growth, or just curious about where coaching is headed, this episode is definitely worth a listen.

Hey love,
I just dropped a new episode of Can’t Be Contained and ooooof — this one hit deep.
I’m diving into something I haven’t shared quite like this before: how to actually heal and regulate your nervous system without just looping in trauma talk or mindset work (because let’s be real, that only gets us so far).
If you’ve been doing all the “right” things — journaling, affirmations, therapy — but still feel stuck, numb, or disconnected... this one’s for you.
In this episode, I’m getting super real about my own journey from feeling flatlined in life to tapping into deep, electric aliveness again. We jam on:
➤ How to clear the blocks that choke out your life force
➤ Why emotional and mental patterns keep us from feeling good (even if we "know better")
➤ How breathwork became my bridge back to me — and how it can be yours too
And yep, I’m also breaking down something brand new: the Aliveness Quadrant. It’s a tool I created to help you tune into your physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual energy — and figure out where you’re leaking power.
You’ll also hear why I believe somatic healing is the future of coaching and why it’s time we start leading with the body, not just the mind.
And hey — if you’re a coach, healer, or facilitator who feels this call in your bones… just a heads up: the doors to our Somatic Coaching Certification are closing real soon. If this path is for you, now’s the time to trust that pull.
You can snag your spot right here: pausebreathwork.com/somatic
Let’s breathe life back into our bodies, our work, and this wild, beautiful human experience — together. 💫
All my love,
Sam

Welcome back everyone to this week’s thought-provoking episode of Can’t Be Contained! Today, I’m honoured to be joined by a master at navigating the intricate dance of human relationships—--relationship coach Annie Lalla!
Annie shares with me her philosophy that TRUE intimacy comes from working through challenges as opposed to avoiding them. It’s a lens through which she likens relationship tensions to an opportunity for growth—--much like the way going to the gym strengthens muscles through resistance.
Annie and I cover a complex range of topics, including:
➤ The Art Of Fighting! 💪(Ok, Hear Us Out!)
➤ Communicating Needs & Desires (Communication is sexy! 👅)
➤ Perspectives on Non-Monogamy (Yes, it can work!)
Together, we go over the difference between toxic and healthy fighting (Some fighting CAN BE HEALTHY!), and we discuss how partners can elevate disagreements to build STRONGER connections! She touches on common pitfalls in love—and sheds light on just how important autonomy is in creating healthy dynamics. (YOU’RE STRONG & INDEPENDENT Y’ALL!)
Finally, Annie reveals techniques that can be used for more effective communication (and who doesn’t love an effective communicator, am I right?), that can in turn inspire partners towards mutual growth without blame or coercion. So whether you’re in a relationship or just find yourself confused by the complexities of love, this conversation with Annie is TRULY transformative!
So settle in, and let’s get a little intimate.
With love,
Samantha

This episode truly shows why I’m so proud to call Mark a friend—-his work has empowered so many people around the world—-including myself.

Friends, I'm still buzzing from this week's episode of Can’t Be Contained! I had the INCREDIBLE honor of sitting down with Neale Donald Walsch, author of "Conversations with God" and someone whose work has deeply impacted my own spiritual journey. This conversation touched my heart in so many ways, and we explored everything from:
➤ How to recognize when God is speaking to us (Neale's perspective on this is fascinating!)
➤ The surprising spiritual potential of AI
➤ Understanding time as an illusion (Mind = BLOWN)
➤ Making JOY our JOB
What really moved me was Neale's core message about our lives not being about us, but about everyone whose life we touch. As someone who's spent years working with people through breathwork and personal development, this resonated so deeply with me.
And you know we’ve got a BONUS for you, babes — Neale is offering all of you FREE access to his digital manuscript "The God Solution". This is such a gift, and I know you'll find it as valuable as I have. Find it HERE!
Alright lovelies, if you're looking to deepen your spiritual connection, ready to challenge traditional religious perspectives or seeking a more authentic relationship with DIVINE WISDOM — this episode is for you! Pour yourself something warm, find a quiet space, and join us for what I believe is one of our most meaningful episodes yet.
With love,
Samantha

It’s time for another brand new episode of Can’t Be Contained! Today, I’m honoured to be joined by author, breathwork facilitator, and founder of the Living Proof Institute, Sachin Patel! Sachin sits down with me this week to share his journey into the world of breathwork, which began with his Wim Hof training in 2018.
We discuss the holistic benefits of breathwork, including its impact on physical health, mental clarity, and emotional well-being. Together, Sachin and I delve into the science behind breathwork, as he highlights how it can aid in detoxification, improve metabolic health, and even assist with issues such as snoring or chronic pain. Our conversation touches on often overlooked contributors to quality of life, including stimulating the vagus nerve. These elements, when harnessed correctly can have profound effects on maintaining optimal health.
Sachin and I get into:
➤ Identifying dysfunctional breathing
➤ Optimizing light exposure to our circadian rhythm
➤ Lung capacity as a predictor of lifespan
Though breathwork seems simple at first glance, it’s an immensely sophisticated practice that holds tremendous power to impact one’s everyday life. So whether you’re simply looking to deepen your existing breathwork practice, or you’re new to it altogether, Sachin has the wisdom you need to transform your health from the inside out!
