150. Redefining Weight Loss and Culture Ft. Samantha Lee By Wellthy Generation Podcast
This was such an amazing conversation I had with my friend Naihomy Jerez who is a health/hormone coach on her WELLTHY GENERATION podcast. I had to share this episode with you because it is THAT GOOD. If you're struggling with being attached to the scale and not knowing where to start for strength training, this one's for ya. See below for the notes from Naihomy :)
In this episode, I’m sitting down with the amazing @superlysam, a health coach who’s redefining weight loss for women of color. Samantha isn’t here for the usual diet culture noise - instead, she’s all about embracing cultural foods, challenging outdated metrics like BMI, and creating a space where our diverse bodies are fully understood and celebrated.
We talk about the complicated relationship many of us have with the scale and how it can get in the way of enjoying life’s big moments, like vacations and family time. Samantha shares her thoughts on why strength training can be a game-changer for women’s health and explains how to ease into it, starting with simple moves that build confidence and strength.
This episode goes deep, touching on the emotional and cultural hurdles that can make prioritizing self-care challenging for women of color. Samantha shares her own journey, including how she’s brought healthier habits into her family and is breaking generational cycles of unhealthy patterns. From setting realistic, lasting goals to embracing wellness as a lifelong practice, Samantha’s story is here to inspire you to rewrite your health narrative in a way that’s true to you.
