Let me share a bit about how I started this whole health and fitness journey and what was my personal “tipping point” of enough is enough. And in case you’re newer here it’s also a little bit about myself that will hopefully allow you to get to know me a heck of a lot more….
The newsletter is late…shocker… Honestly it’s been a crazy start to this year for us. But instead of sharing why it’s been so busy, let me first ask you if you let your busyness derail you already from goals you’ve set for yourself this year? Why do you think that is? Is it a cycle…
Merry Christmas! I honestly love the holiday season and all the joy that surrounds it. Seeing the wonder and happiness through the eyes of my daughter has brought even more fun to this time of year for both my husband and I. But for many the holidays brings a lot of stress. What to get…
The last two months have been busy… like always… Last month I was able to go to Corfu, Greece for a week on a fantastic retreat with Elise Joan (our super trainer and creator of Barre Blend). It was such a wonderful week full of rest, yoga, barre, amazing food, and the best company I…

I challenge you to write down three small seemingly simple things that you might otherwise over look each day…
I am sitting in Mons, Belgium writing this letter to you amidst my travels that are FINALLY able to happen for us. We’ve spent 14 of the last 16 months sitting in our home, starring at our same walls, rearranging the furniture time and time again, and purging all the belongings. Trust me when I…
Last letter I promised I’d give a good recount of the Ultimate Reset I just finished. I’ve been looking for the right words for the experience and have been struggling to find them. It was amazing and truly eye opening! There’s a saying “abs are made in the workout, but show up in the kitchen.”…
Welcome to Inside Happiness with Samantha Mans. I’ve been coaching and focused on living a healthy lifestyle that is about living fully, happily, joyfully, and isn’t focused on the outward appearance or that damn number on the scale for over 4 years now. I’ve learned a lot, lost, gained, and all the things. This newsletter is…
