Now I live an active lifestyle. I feel in tune with my mind and body and I feel like I can take on the entire world. I’m no longer helpless and have really come to love myself now more than ever. I love food and have confidence and control around it (no more emotional attachment). 

My body feels comfortable to be in and I can wear all kinds of clothes without feeling self conscious. Overall I feel like I’ve come out of my shell and grew up to be a wonderful person that I enjoy being around. I can almost feel myself shine with how vibrant I’ve become.

My relationship with food and desserts has completely changed. I eat sweets without judgement and now I can have them around me without finishing the whole thing. 

My workouts are now actually consistent and I'm much stronger. I went from not being able to do a single pushup to now doing multiple regular pushups in a workout. I don't dread working out because I listen to what my body needs, and I don't shame myself for not "pushing hard enough". I've changed my relationship with the scale.

A CERTIFIED NASM PERSONAL TRAINER, CORRECTIVE EXERCISE SPECIALIST AND IP PRECISION NUTRITION COACH

samantha lee

MEET YOUR COACH

She is a Hmong-American from Saint Paul, Minnesota, the eldest daughter of refugee/immigrant parents. She has been in her weight loss journey for 11 years.

When she first started, Sam was pressured to conform to Westernized standards of healthy and avoided Hmong food for a long time as Asian foods were seen "unhealthy" to lose weight in mass media.

She stripped her cultural identity to eat the white diet only to find that it wasn't sustainable. It didn't allow her to eat her momma's cooking without guilt.

After healing her relationship with food, her mission is to voice the cultural differences in the weight loss industry to empower women of color (WOC) to reclaim control over their bodies, encourage them to embrace foods from their cultural backgrounds without shame.

I am more attuned with my body; I know how to listen to it. I know when I am hungry and full or when something doesn't sit well. Addressing the shame I had around food and getting to the root and purpose of emotional eating is life-changing.

My confidence has also increased and not dependent on my body image. I feel more comfortable in my body and honoring it more when I am shopping. Now, I exercise daily and am okay with having a rest day if I want to. I no longer fear the intensity and know what feels good for my body.

Before, I was overeating, emotional eating, ate out 4-5 times a week, couldn't stick to workout routine. I wasn't confident in taking pictures and it felt hard walking up the stairs without feeling out of breath. When I couldn't stay consistent, always made myself feel bad for not going to work out. 

Now, I have control and confidence with food whenever I eat. I workout 3 times a week, fit into the clothes I want and I feel more excited to take pictures because I am not asking if I look fat as soon as I see it.

I love myself more than ever now. I can keep myself accountable. I no longer label food as "good" or "bad" and can eat my Hmong food and my mom's cooking. In this program, I had to unlearn the fad diets I've tried and it blew my mind because I know what's best for my body now.

"i lost 10 pounds"

I love my body more and I feel more confident. Wearing a two piece bikini doesn't make me feel sh*tty and I don't stress eat as much because I handle stress much better now. My workouts are also consistent because it's just a decision away. I'm not going back and forth with myself anymore.

"I lost 5 inches off my waist"

I don't find losing weight that difficult anymore when it used to consume me a lot. I feel much more confident in clothing now. I have a healthy distance with the scale and I have confidence in all my food choices. I know when I am full, when I am hungry, what time I eat would give me good energy AND I'm eating whatever I want!

I highly recommend the program to anyone looking for support, accountability, and guidance in losing weight without pressure and eating the food they love without shame.

Everything we've been told about weight loss is basically a lie. If you can find the courage to be willing to start over doing it YOUR WAY, you'll will lose weight this time.

If this has been bothering you for so long, and you're wondering "is this just like another diet out there", I can tell you this is a totally different program because Sam will guide you to cure those unhealthy patterns we hold around our body, food, and exercises for good. This is not a quick fix, but it's a permanent fix.

Sam is the most genuine and caring coach I've ever encountered. She really cares about your success and really helps you dig deep into your own thoughts and feelings. She knows more about me than my best friends and that's something I appreciate so much!! From personal life issues to fitness Sam really helps you work though it all. She's so amazing. 

The program is 100% worth it. It was a life changing experience to no longer struggle with your weight anymore. The moment you say yes, you are already one step closer to the healthy life you’ve always deserved. 

1:1 coaching has been life-changing. Before the program, I was doing many unsuccessful programs such as the eight-week challenge, Vshred, and taking supplements and protein shakes. Now, I can enjoy the foods I love, i no longer have  low energy. I stay active and my body feels healthy.

Sam is provides the best of both worlds. She creates space for you and helps you uncover your blindspots as a coach, AND she knows what's she's talking about when it comes to safe and effective fitness and holistic nutrition.

you've made it this far. chat with coach sam and get started

I used to feel self-conscious about my belly and thighs. I bloat easily and didn't feel comfortable in it. I was eating to survive and didn't think much about food because I was stressed. Whenever I workout, the motivation would last for a few weeks but it would stop when something comes up. Now, I take care of my body and health consistently and show up for it.

My body is always changing and this won’t be the final stage. I am more fit, strong and flexible. Working out consistently is easier. I love taking care of my health for me versus from a place of “I want to look like an Instagram model or fit society’s beauty standards. After the program, I am the healthiest version of myself.
