Welcome to the work of Sam Bell! Coach, Educator, Healer. Speaker, Writer, Podcaster. Overachiever. Good. Bad. Otherwise. No more wheel spinning. No more STUCK!
I’m a big dreamer obsessed with puppies, cats, chocolate, travel, and sunshine. I put my crystals out on a full moon and am happiest walking barefoot in nature. I believe EVERY WOMAN deserves the opportunity to achieve her FULLEST POTENTIAL and that our soul’s wisdom lies within the relationship we have with our mothers. My SUPERPOWER is helping women like YOU become the best version of themselves while pursuing the kind of life they actually want! Life is too damn short! Seeing people SUCCEED whilst doing what they LOVE fires me up! We only have one life and heck, we need to LIVE it, with reckless abandon! That’s the version of life I am living and the one I want to help you live too!

Taken a day for me tomorrow ✨
A dose of my own medicine 💊
While our beta participants dive into their first module, I’m giving myself the space to reflect, rest, and actually digest it all. Because this work? It matters… and so does practicing what I teach.
Spending the day with one of my favourite humans while she works her magic at 💇♀️
Stay tuned… something about slowing down always creates space for something beautiful 💫

Big Day Today!!!
I PRESSED SEND!!!
🙈
There’s a moment that doesn’t get talked about enough…
✨
The moment after the creating.
After the overthinking.
After the doubt.
🙈
The moment where you take a deep breath… and press send!
✔️
Today, I did that.
😉
Not perfectly.
Not fearlessly.
But excitedly!
‼️
Did I forget something in the funnel?
Is there a tech glitch waiting to happen?
Will they enJOY my teaching style?
Did the perfect charter member hesitate before the doors CLOSED to our Beta Cohort?
🔮
Trust Sam, Trust.
🔮
Our Charter Members step inside tomorrow
And pressing send gave them access to the Beta Foundation Module of Burnout to Joy
🥰
After a year of exponential growth — the messy, magical kind — and I have built something so close to our hearts… and tomorrow, we get to welcome a select group of educators and nurses who will pave the way for 10’s of thousands more!!
💯
We’ll be meeting our Charter Members for the very first time, guiding them, supporting them, and walking alongside them as they begin their journey from burnout… to JOY.
✨
If you’ve ever been sitting on something — an idea, a dream, a next step — this is your reminder:
👉 You don’t need to feel ready.
👉 You just need to be willing.
Because magic doesn’t happen in the planning…
It happens in the sending - GULP!!
✨
Allow the magic to happen💫

Today, I’m on a day off.
I’d be lying if I said it’s the first one I’ve had in a year… but it is the first day off without something pressing to achieve.
It’s all done.
This Sunday, we welcome a select group of nurses, teachers, and frontline workers into the Beta Cohort of Burnout to Joy. Tomorrow, I open the doors and grant them access to one of the most robust, life-changing courses I’ve ever created.
And honestly… it feels like a milestone moment.
This past year has been one of exponential growth — some of it painful — as a teacher and a nurse learned to honour their different approaches and come together to create something truly magical alongside my incredible co-founder, April Lara.
Together, we’ve created a full library of support — meditations, worksheets, articles, the Burnout… Find Out Quiz, and a 5-Day Challenge — all designed to support our frontline professionals not just once, but daily.
This work marks the beginning of the twilight years of my 40-year nursing career — not an ending, but a transformation.
What started as burnout has become purpose.
What felt heavy has become meaningful.
This is no longer just work… it’s passion. It’s soul work.
And I cannot wait to see the lives it touches.
✨ Stop Existing. Start Living.

✨ Emerald Light & Regulated Hearts ✨
Announcing Sam’s offering!
💚Mothers Day Healing Experience with Archangel Raphael 💚
On a day that so often asks women to give…
this is your invitation to receive.
Motherhood — in all its forms — is sacred.
But it can also be heavy, unseen, and deeply demanding on your nervous system.
This intimate healing circle is a space to soften.
To exhale.
To be held.
Guided by the gentle, restorative presence of Archangel Raphael, we will weave together angelic healing with powerful nervous system regulation practices — allowing your body to shift from stress into safety, and your heart to open to true restoration.
Through breathwork, somatic grounding, reflective ritual, and a guided emerald light meditation…
you will be supported in releasing what you’ve been carrying silently.
This is not about doing more.
This is about coming home to yourself.
🌿 You will leave feeling:
• Calmer
• Grounded
• Replenished
• Deeply supported
This Mother’s Day… let yourself be cared for.

La Luna…reminds us… 🌙✨
We were never meant to live in constant output.
We were created in cycles.
The moon doesn’t apologize for waning.
She doesn’t rush her becoming.
She trusts her phases — and so can we.
In a world that glorifies hustle, cyclical living is radical.
It’s honouring your energy instead of forcing it.
It’s recognizing when you’re in a season of visibility… and when you’re in a season of restoration.
It’s understanding that rest is not weakness — it’s wisdom.
Just like the moon:
🌑 There are dark phases where clarity hasn’t arrived yet.
🌒 There are building phases where momentum quietly grows.
🌕 There are radiant phases where you shine fully and boldly.
🌘 And there are releasing phases where you soften and let go.
None of it is wrong.
None of it is behind.
All of it is sacred.
This is exactly why we include cyclical living inside Burnout to Joy.
Because burnout doesn’t come from lack of strength — it comes from ignoring our natural rhythms.
When we teach clients how to understand their energetic seasons, track their patterns, and plan life in alignment with their cycles… everything shifts.
Energy becomes sustainable.
Boundaries become clearer.
Self-trust returns.
You stop managing time…
And start managing energy.
Stop Existing. Start Living!!!
Tonight, ask yourself:
✨ What phase am I in right now?
✨ Where am I pushing instead of honoring?
✨ What would change if I trusted my rhythm?
La luna already knows. 🌙

Don’t get burned out…
🔥 get fired up and love your work again!
Nurses and teachers give endlessly—
to patients, students, families, systems.
Burnout isn’t a lack of resilience.
It’s a sign your nervous system has been carrying too much for too long.
✨ We’ve got you covered.
The Burnout to Joy (BOTJ) Foundation Program – Pilot is here to help you reconnect with your energy, purpose, and joy—without adding more to your plate.
Because the work you do matters… and so do you.

It’s not just the difficulty of making the decision.
It’s everything that comes after.
The questions.
The accusations.
The looks that say “But they’re your parent.”
Going no contact isn’t a single moment—it’s often a decades-long process.
For me, it wasn’t sudden. It was something my body and soul knew long before my mind could accept it.
It was the little girl who tried to run away at 10, desperately searching for safety she couldn’t name.
It was the teenager at 17 who ran again—this time successfully—creating distance and minimal contact just to survive.
And finally, at 39, it was no contact. Not impulsive. Not dramatic. But inevitable.
I had tried. Over and over.
Conversations. Understanding. Caretaking. Hoping that if I loved enough, explained enough, waited long enough, a parent might mature into what I needed.
Like so many estranged parents, the story told later was that the decision “came out of nowhere.”
It didn’t.
It came after years of effort, grief, and quiet endurance.
Choosing no contact made me deeply vulnerable—to criticism from family, from society, from people who weren’t there and don’t want to know the impact.
And that’s the truth many don’t want to sit with.
If you’re moving toward low or no contact—or already living it—don’t lose sight of your truth. Prepare yourself for criticism, especially from those who aren’t interested in hearing your story.
Their discomfort is often rooted not in your decision, but in their own unwillingness to feel the complexity of family, grief, and harm.
They weren’t there.
And you don’t owe anyone your pain as proof.

I’ve become really intentional about how I care for my skin and my health — not from vanity, but from reverence.
Years ago, I lived in Spain on an olive farm. I watched ancient olive trees thrive through drought, wind, and time. I learned that olives don’t rely on excess water — they hold wisdom, resilience, and potency within. That stayed with me.
That’s why waterless beauty feels so aligned for me now.
My skin doesn’t need dilution — it needs concentration, nourishment, and respect.
I choose Oliveda because it replaces water with olive leaf cell elixir, rich in Hydroxytyrosol — one of the most powerful antioxidants found in nature.
✨ Supports skin barrier health
✨ Helps calm inflammation
✨ Protects against oxidative stress
✨ Feeds the skin at a cellular level
This isn’t about quick fixes.
It’s about preserving vitality, honoring longevity, and choosing products that work with the body — not against it.
Caring for my skin has become part of my nervous system care.
A daily ritual.
A reminder that thriving doesn’t come from overdoing — it comes from rooted, intentional nourishment.
From olive groves to everyday rituals 🌿
This is skin care that makes sense to my body and my soul.

Sam Bell’s personal transformation in the face of adversity has become her own ‘Journey to Joy’ and has established her as a leading Empowerment Coach. Through her own inspirational transformation, she has created a valuable resource incorporating the JOY Coaching Programs and the Mother Ship Events, each designed to provide women (and men) with the tools to ‘Stop Existing, Start Living’, embodying their full power and potential.
An ‘accidental’ entrepreneur, Sam says: ‘This was never supposed to be a 'business'... It started out as a personal blog and a book to be left as a legacy for my son. But as my journey progressed, as I healed and emerged from 'broken', the value in the lessons I learned along the way became proven tools that have helped others do exactly the same’
Today, Sam Bell’s enterprise includes her signature Health and Empowerment Coaching Programs ‘JOY: Journey of You’ and The Mother Ship - a series of live events and retreats and an Online Membership, designed to bring the magic of Sacred Circle to women the world over.
She is also President of the Calgary South Holistic Chamber of Commerce, a vehicle through which Sam works tirelessly to empower small business owners and entrepreneurs.
Sam has established herself as a recognised specialist, primarily working with women who deeply struggle in their relationship with their mother, and have for years (or decades).
The women she works with have often been to counsellors, intuitive, support groups, read books, or done courses… but their relationship with a toxic mother is still influencing their other relationships, money, happiness, body image etc. in a profound way.
What began as a blog entitles ‘Mamaita’s Journey’ has evolved into a truly unique Resource and Empowerment Coaching Practice. Sam has proven repeatedly to improve her client's health and well being through her unique combination of clinical and intuitive coaching skills and healing practices.
What's in the name?
'Mamaita' is the pet name given to her by her now teenage son, and as this all began for him five years ago, it seemed only fitting that this should be the name given to her blog, and later, her business.
'Journey' is a metaphor for 'Life'. It represents Sam’s determined journey to find JOY. A 'Happiness Project' that is now entering its 8th year and has empowered her to develop and engage in healthy mindsets and behaviours.
‘My unique approach to learning and teaching is based upon my own incredible journey and the many adventures I share to discover my inner truth, to understand those around me and discover my life purpose’
She has grown to understand and accept the many challenges that have been placed in front of her: daughter of a narcissistic mother and the survivor of emotional/psychological abuse; daughter of an alcoholic mother and father; survivor of r**e; bankruptcy; and finally a divorce leaving her a single mum. And now, an entrepreneur, public speaker, published writer, coach and powerful change agent.
‘It took the breakdown of my marriage to make me determined to be happy for the sake of our son. Determined to understand what had happened to me and why. Determined to turn the bad into good. Determined to like the person I had become and accepted me for being me. Determined to enjoy the journey to happiness ~ the journey that has evolved into something so amazing I can no longer keep it to myself. I want to share this with others and empower individuals to do this for themselves. Using evidence-based theories and practices, I share with my clients the simple philosophies that encompass all aspects of you and your life - a Truly Integrative Approach'.
Working with Sam, whether it be one on one, attending her workshops or completing one of her many online coaching courses, empowers you to improve your own health and well-being through personal responsibility and self-motivation.
‘With an open mind and a traveller's spirit, my clients realize the many possibilities that their own journey holds and I help get them to where they only once dreamed they might actually be’
