Season 1 · Episode 15

Friday, September 5, 2025 • Duration 01:06:07

We sat down and chatted with the energetic, wonderful, and fun Sam Hirschmann Boskey.

Sam is endlessly inspiring and just full of light and joy! She is a mother, an author, an actress, a breathwork teacher, and so much more.

We talk about everything from being a college athlete, to Sam’s early career in finance, to her switch to acting school and breathwork, and then we also dive into motherhood. We have a slight unexpected interruption to talk about Taylor and Travis (!) and then (as always) we conclude the episode by chatting about shopping and some of Sam’s favorite things.

Follow Sam on instagram at @ SamMooves or on her substack Eat the Croissant.
