This week, we meet Samantha Wendt, a sugar addiction survivor turned generational restorative health mentor. She's not just a wife and mother, she's a trauma-to-triumph queen. In her darkest moments, when suicide seemed like an option, her faith in God proved stronger. Samantha is the visionary founder of the Empowered by Nature Wellness Center, dedicated to helping others heal, restore, and thrive. Join us on her extraordinary journey of transformation and empowerment.
Your host is Janet Sandberg, a former gothic punk girl with a dragon tattoo who is now a Doc Marten wearing spiritual badass. She’s an intuitive channel, coach, energy master, and author. After a 23-year-old family friend ended her own life last year and after having survived many years of darkness and despair herself, Janet started this podcast to talk about the darkness so that if you're in it, you'll feel less alone. She also wanted to let you know that it gets better by sharing inspiring stories from those of us who have made it out the other side and are now thriving.
