In this episode, I sit down with my friend and founder of Pause Breathwork, Samantha Skelly, for a deeply honest and soulful conversation about evolution, alignment, and faith in both life and business. Samantha shares how her journey as an entrepreneur has transformed into a spiritual assignment—one rooted in artistry, service, and surrender. We talk about what it means to evolve past old versions of success, let go of what no longer feels aligned, and allow business to become a living, breathing expression of who you truly are.
We also dive into the importance of slowing down, receiving support, and making peace with change. Samantha opens up about the role faith and prayer have played in her life, her return to her Christian roots, and how she’s learned to invite God into her business decisions. This episode is an inspiring reminder that your evolution is sacred, your alignment is your greatest strategy, and peace comes when you finally trust that you are exactly where you’re meant to be.

QUOTABLES:
“  I think that whatever we're willing to tolerate will always be met. And so no matter if it's relationships, business, what have you, if there's something that just keeps being that spiritual sandpaper for you, you've gotta really ask yourself like, what am I tolerating here? And just simply put, raise the standard.” - Julie Solomon 
“  I couldn't see a pathway of it being something else. And I think I had an ego layering on that because my ego was like, “well, surely we can't simplify because then the revenue will drop, and if the revenue drops, then we're not gonna continually grow.
And what's that gonna do?” So I had to love fiercely, the part of me that was trying to take over by telling me to keep scaling and what I mean by that is like, not destroy it, not cut it off, not badmouth it, but just love the little girl inside of me that's like, “I wanna keep growing.
What if I don't? Who am I gonna upset?” - Samantha Skelly
