Her weekly podcast has been downloaded over 250,000 times, and her story has been featured on YNAB, Debt.com, The Purpose Show with Allie Casazza, and The His & Her Money Show. When she’s not downing caramel coffee or homeschooling her daughters, she’s creating content, collaborating with finance/minimalist organizations, and inspiring women all over the world to live an intentional life. She began this journey with her high school sweetheart, Daniel, and a debt price tag of $490,000. They both took control of their family’s finances by downsizing, budgeting, and changing habits. From this experience, A Sunny Side Up Life was born. Today, Sami owns this business helping women get through dark times and experience the life-altering magic of intentional living.
