Samantha Skelly didn't always have a great relationship with food or her body, for that matter. For years she struggled in silence. Hiding her binge eating from friends and family, and masking it with over-exercising and fitness. It was only after a life situation forced her to leave England and move back home to Canada, that she really started to face her own demons.

Years of hard work, getting to know herself again, peeling away deep problems and facing them head on, has led her to where she is now. She's strong, focused and driven more than ever to flip the weight loss industry on it's head, and help women take back their power, while gaining a positive relationship with food and their bodies. She didn't set out with this mission and we find out how she's been building her mini-empire in this episode. First lesson -food is not the enemy here, folks. 

Through one-on-one coaching, events, her own podcast, a book and speaking engagements, Sam is spreading the message loud and clear. Love yourself first.
