When I think of strength and resilience, I think of Sam. She’s been one of my closest friends for years, and in so many ways, I look up to her. She’s the kind of person who radiates positivity—someone who truly loves fitness, nourishing her body with healthy food, and curling up with a good book. But beyond that, she’s also a devoted wife and an incredible mom to two beautiful girls.
This past year, Sam faced something unimaginable: a battle with Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Through it all, she never lost sight of who she is. She leaned into the things that fuel her—movement, mindset, and the unwavering love of her family and friends. Her journey is one of resilience, determination, and finding light even in the darkest moments.
Her story is a reminder that even when life throws its hardest challenges at us, we have the power to fight back with strength, support, and belief in ourselves. 💜
Watching Sam fight—and win—this battle has been nothing short of inspiring. From day one, she approached her diagnosis with a mindset of determination. She knew that while she couldn’t control everything, she could control how she showed up for herself each day.
