This conversation has been a long time coming and lands at exactly the perfect season—one where both Julie and I are feeling into what it means to honor our deepest truth, beyond any pressure to perform, achieve, or fit ourselves into outdated boxes. Julie is a bestselling author, world-class messaging coach, and host of The Influencer Podcast. She brings such a fiercely honest but always loving energy to this episode as we unpack what it’s really like to evolve in our ambitions, shed old identities, and find joy in being instead of just doing. We both get real about the sometimes-boring (but actually super juicy) side of business when it’s finally in flow, and how letting go of needing constant hustle opened up space for creative play like pottery, songwriting, or just learning French for the fun of it. Julie’s wisdom on moving away from past-based branding and learning to mirror the highest version of yourself, so that your dream clients naturally calibrate UP, is honestly a game changer. Inside these powerful minutes, we’re diving into: ➤ Shifting from performative achievement to embodied presence (and why breathwork is my not-so-subtle secret!) ➤ How to let boredom be a sign you’re on the right track (instead of a call to burn it all down) ➤ The truth about pain-based marketing and why speaking to your future self is so much more magnetic ➤ My and Julie’s personal rituals for “being her now” and embodying the next-level version of ourselves in every part of life This episode is truly one for the women and humans who are ready to ditch the old rules, reclaim their creative spark, and lead with uncontainable truth and permission. Julie brings so many mic-drop moments, and you’ll feel like you’re right here with us, having the realest chat about business, ambition, play, and presence. Come hang with us. Let this be your invitation to step all the way in, loosen the grip, and just be her now. You belong.

345: From Burnout to Rebirth: Embracing Slow Business and True Alignment 07/02/2025

345: From Burnout to Rebirth: Embracing Slow Business and True Alignment 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!

343: Spiritual Burnout: God’s Not Ghosting You, You Just Forgot to Listen 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.

342: Your Body's Breaking Point: How Burnout Hijacks Energy, Fertility & Longevity 06/11/2025

342: Your Body's Breaking Point: How Burnout Hijacks Energy, Fertility & Longevity 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.

341: Emotional Burnout: Why You Feel So Much and Still Feel Empty 06/04/2025

340: Why Women Are Mentally Burned Out (and How to Fix It) 05/28/2025

340: Why Women Are Mentally Burned Out (and How to Fix It) 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.

337: Letting Go of Perfectionism: Energetic Clarity in Life, Love, and Business 05/08/2025

337: Letting Go of Perfectionism: Energetic Clarity in Life, Love, and Business 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 and my , 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.

332: Why AI Will Replace Mindset Coaches — But NOT Somatic Coaches (Here’s Why) 04/03/2025

332: Why AI Will Replace Mindset Coaches — But NOT Somatic Coaches (Here’s Why) 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.

331: 4 Steps To A Healthier Nervous System 03/29/2025

331: 4 Steps To A Healthier Nervous System 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: Let’s breathe life back into our bodies, our work, and this wild, beautiful human experience — together. 💫 All my love, Sam About Can’t Be Contained Can’t Be Contained’ is the unscripted, unedited – fully uncontained journal entries & real-life experiences of those who follow their bliss & intuitive hits, the freedom seekers, the sacred rebels – the ones who are here to disrupt what preceded us & create what is ahead of us.
