Samantha Lee a Hmong-American, the eldest daughter of refugee/immigrant parents, a speaker, and a health coach who helps people of color lose weight and break out of following racist diet culture rules, joins the Money Noticias podcast to discuss the similarities between health and money journeys, particularly when it comes to creating habits

Samantha is also the host of the 'Your Winning Journey' podcast and shares weight loss teachings with her 10-year experience. Her work was inspired by her weight loss journey where she felt the need to strip her cultural identity to fit into society's standard of "white healthy". Samantha's mission is to voice the cultural differences in the health/fitness industry so POC can take control of their bodies by eating the foods from their background without shame. She is a POC stop dieting/emotional eating expert and a health advocate for her community. You can get involved with Samantha through her 6 months 1:1 coaching program and social media platforms.

In this episode, you will learn:

• Samantha's journey of weight loss and how she started her career as a health coach.
• The importance of self-awareness and intentionality in both health and money habits.
• The impact of trauma on our relationship with food and money.
• The need to shift the blame from ourselves to the system and to be gentle with ourselves in the process.
• And more!
