What does it really take to build a personal brand that not only makes you money, but gives you the freedom to live boldly and love deeply?

In this episode, Laura Patricia Martin (@itslaurapatriciamartin) sits down with Samantha Smith (@_samanthadaily)—7-Figure Personal Brand Consultant, creator of Million Dollar Messaging™️, and host of the Makeshift Happen Podcast (1.8M+ downloads)—to talk about what it means to chase big dreams while also building a fulfilling life.

Sam shares her raw story of moving to Spain, starting her business from scratch, and the challenges and triumphs that shaped her journey to seven figures. Together, Laura and Sam unpack:

- How to navigate the tension between ambition and intimacy

- Why courage is the secret ingredient to building both brands and relationships

- The role of supportive partnerships when pursuing your boldest goals

- What it really looks like to align your business with your purpose

This is a conversation about choosing courage over comfort, finding safety in your ambition, and building a brand that lets you live fully on every level.
