What’s the meaning of a name? What happened to you? We are a sum of our life's experiences, and it's up to us to turn them into positive experiences. It’s not so easy to let go of trauma when it lives inside your soul! Parents from opposite sides of the track, abuse, and running away from the farm, sometimes life can feel like a cruel joke. Samantha Hart felt like the blind pony she raised. She says there are a lot of blind ponies out there.
Today I’m talking to a risk-taker, a farm girl, and an incredible mommy! She says as hard as it is talking about generational trauma, she's glad she did. Better Call Daddy: The Safe Space for Controversy.
Samantha Hart's career has spanned music, film, and advertising, earning her a reputation as an award-winning Creative Director. Her creative marketing campaigns brought prominence and Academy Awards to films such as Fargo, Dead Man Walking, and Boys Don't Cry while earning cult status for independent features, Dazed and Confused, Four Weddings and A Funeral, and Priscilla Queen of the Desert.
With her partner, Sam built a successful company in the advertising industry, Foundation, with over forty employees and offices in Chicago and Los Angeles. Under Sam's leadership, Foundation earned distinction as an early disrupter of the traditional production and post-production models combining the two under one roof.
In 2017, Sam and her partner, James Lipetzky, re-branded and started Wild Bill. The team provides creative through finishing for many clients, including luxury brands, startups, and non-profits.
On March 15, 2021, Sam's powerful memoir, BLIND PONY As True A Story As I Can Tell, was released to rave reviews, followed by the audiobook version, which she narrates. She is currently developing a documentary series to direct and is busy writing her next book, a novel.
