Samantha was born into a lineage of Healers and Mystics. She has spent decades studying alongside Indigenous Shamans and Elders in the Amazon rain forests, the jungles of Asia, and tribal reservations of the United States, and was named an Honorary Buddhist Monk by senior monks in both Asia and the United States in recognition of her work.
Alongside this path, she built a career of over 30 years advising corporations and startups, and over 20 years consulting for ultra-luxury spas and hospitality brands. That dual life gave her a rare fluency in two languages: the language of the Human Spirit and the language of the P&L.
Today, Samantha brings both worlds together, working at the intersection of Psychology, Ancient Wisdom, and Modern Longevity Science.
She also serves as a bridge for leaders and innovators across industries, ensuring their work is grounded in "Wellness Intelligence": designing products, spaces, and strategies that balance the nervous system rather than deplete it.
Samantha's greatest joy is watching a person transform: from stressed, sick, and overwhelmed, to genuinely, deeply happy, living in a home they love, surrounded by people who love them back. This is the heart of Manifesting Desires: helping you uncover your truest, deepest desires, and watching you grow into exactly who you were always meant to be.
She is endlessly curious. She is always researching, always learning, always looking for solutions beyond the obvious ones. When she discovers something that works, she studies how to weave it into her practice, which is why her approach draws from many tools rather than just one. And when someone else in her trusted network around the world is better suited to what you need, she will say so, and send you to them, because your outcome matters more than being the one who delivers it.
This is what she offers: not a single method, but a devoted guide who will use everything she knows, and everyone she trusts, to help you get there.

Highly Educated. Uniquely Diversified. Deeply Practiced. Entirely Rare.
Since childhood, Samantha has spent her life becoming fluent in both worlds, the boardroom and the ancient path, mastering an unusual number of disciplines: Advanced Shamanic Practice, Metaphysical Alchemy, Medical Intuition, Clinical Herbalism, Spiritual Hypnosis, Ancient Astrology, Advanced Yoga, Life Coaching, and Spiritual Guidance. She didn't dabble in any of it. She mastered it, so you never have to assemble your own team to get the care you need. At 50, she is living proof of what a lifetime of devotion makes possible.
Facing a health challenge, a big decision, or a quiet sense that something is out of alignment? Samantha meets you where you are and gently guides you to find your optimal health, clarity, and peace.
Her work weaves together shamanic wisdom, the best of modern longevity science, and ancient and modern wellness practices, all shaped around you.

Before we talk about AI, let's answer what you want to know first.
Sometimes AI plays a role in Samantha's business, but it will never come before your privacy: if it's needed for your case, that specific private, personal information is handled inside a closed, HIPAA-protected AI system, backed by a signed Business Associate Agreement, and is never used to train AI models, shared, or exposed.
Samantha hand writes, and never uploads your story, session notes, etc. into AI. All of it stays entirely your own, protected from the moment you share it. For complete details, see our Privacy Policy.
