Friends, I’m so excited for you all to listen to this week’s episode of Can’t Be Contained! Today, I’m sitting down with author, nutritionist, and medical exercise specialist Jenn Pike! Jenn and I delve into the fascinating world of human design and women’s health—-especially as it relates to female entrepreneurs. Jenn provides valuable insight on so many topics, including:
➤ Perimenopause Awareness (It Can Start As Early As Your Mid 30’s! 😬)
➤ The Sobriety Movement! (Booze Doesn’t Equal Fulfillment)
➤ The Role of Toxins 🤢in Women’s Health
Jenn guides us through the TRANSFORMATIVE journey of understanding our own unique design, and shares her personal shift from operating in a “GO-GO-GO” manner to adopting a more mindful approach that applies strategic energy use. We unpack her PASSION for health and fitness and how it evolved into a robust career focused on EMPOWERING women through wellness and an understanding of their hormones.
To say that women’s health is filled with intricacies is probably an understatement. But if you’re looking to expand your understanding, or are navigating your own journey—-then Jenn is here to show you how a supportive environment and mindset can profoundly influence your well-being!
With love,
Samantha

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!

Welcome back to a brand-new episode of Can’t Be Contained, where today I couldn’t be more stoked to welcome entrepreneur and personal development advocate James Wedmore! James graciously shares his journey from a logical atheist to embracing spiritual growth—all the while stressing the profound impacts these changes have had on his success in the entrepreneurial space.
Together, James and I share personal stories of managing moments of self-doubt on stage, and the power of words in fostering authentic relationships. James explores the idea of sacred reciprocity and recounts impactful personal experiences with financial hardship that have shaped his business ethos. Our conversation is a deep dive into the idea that true growth often stems from adversity. James shares how the “tightrope walk” that is living in Sedona has proved effective in gaining self-management tools, and how the environment one lives in can shape personal and professional development.
We traverse topics like:
➤ The importance of self-worth in preventing burnout
➤ Genuine connection in business
➤ Manifesting goals
So join James and myself as we delve into just exactly how one maintains balance while pursuing ambitious goals. One shouldn’t cancel out the other, and with James’s powerful insights, listeners can be sure professional pursuits do not have to come at the price of authenticity!
