This Week on the Live Your Light Show:

Today on the Live Your Light Show we have Samantha Skelly who is a 7-figure entrepreneur, international speaker, best-selling author, wellness coaching expert, and breathwork facilitator. For years she struggled with disordered eating and body image issues. She was completely disconnected from her body and tried every method imaginable to "fix" herself. It wasn't until she discovered breathwork that I truly began to experience real growth, transformation, and recovery.

Since undergoing her own healing journey, she founded two companies: Pause Breathwork and Hungry for Happiness to help others overcome their own pain and struggles. It's her mission to unite humanity by teaching people to breathe, feel, and thrive.

In This Conversation, We Cover:

0:30 Her journey as an entrepreneur and how it all started
2:48 How she helps her clients through breathwork to clear their mind & emotions to become the best leaders
3:50 What breathwork is and how it can benefit the mind, body, and spirit
8:15 Who is (and who isn't) suitable for breathwork & why that’s important
12:05 Her very first experience with breathwork in Bali (we share a very similar Bali story which is awesome!)
19:30 We talk about her book ,’Hungry for Happiness”, and how it came to life
25:15 How to activate the Embodied awareness to bring us into the present moment
30:21 How she went from being a waitress making $30k/ year to $300k/ year in 12 months -- NOT by strategy or shifting into a new energetic space by working on her energy
“The less I work, the MORE I make. Because the less I work, the more I can focus on elevating my energy and energy comes first!”- Sam Skelly
33:45 She shares tangible steps she would take if she were to start a business from scratch today.

  - This is where I’m going
