I’m back for a solo episode! This week we're getting deep and diving into a topic that many women can relate to, but often feel alone in discussing: the journey of losing and regaining a menstrual cycle. I'm opening up for the first time about my own experience of losing my period for 13 months and the emotional and physical challenges that came with it.
I discuss the impact of stress, training, and nutrition on hormonal health, and how I learned to listen to my body’s signals. From my history with birth control to the stress of intense marathon training, I reflect on the lessons learned and the importance of prioritizing health over aesthetics.
Whether you're experiencing similar struggles or just looking to understand more about women's health, this one's for the girls and a reminder that your cycle is a vital sign of your overall health.

About Samantha Christine:
Hi, I’m Samantha Christine—a boy mom, Certified Nutrition Coach, Certified Personal Trainer, and Fitness Entrepreneur with over 10 years of experience in the health and wellness space. But here's the thing—I wasn’t always athletic. Growing up in the arts, I was more into singing and dancing than lifting weights or running races. The idea of hitting the gym or playing sports felt intimidating. It wasn’t until after college that I made the decision to prioritize my health, and once I joined a gym, I was hooked. The more I moved my body, the more I realized how empowering it was to challenge myself in new ways.
In 2018, I ran my first half marathon, and that was the beginning of my love for endurance events. Since then, I’ve completed multiple half marathons, a full marathon, and several Hyrox races. Along the way, I created my own hybrid training programs and fell in love with coaching others to reach their fitness goals, discovering how movement can be both a physical and mental transformation.
As I continued to train and push my limits, I also realized the powerful role nutrition plays in how we feel and perform. This led me to dive deeper into the science of fueling our bodies, and in 2023, I became a Certified Nutrition Coach. Now, I help others not only train harder but also eat smarter, so they can perform at their best. This will be a place for us to connect, learn, and grow together, building a community of like-minded individuals on a mission to feel better, live healthier, and empower each other every step of the way.
