A Year of Becoming, And We’re Just Getting Started

This 2025 stretched me in ways I never expected. 

As a woman, as a leader, and as a CEO.

A year ago, we expanded the studio.
A year ago, we opened our doors for the longest soft opening ever.
And a year ago… I had no idea how many chapters were waiting to be written.

Running a business is one thing.
Running a business while building new programs, updating our Academy curriculum, editing manuals I never knew I’d be writing, and launching a full activewear line at the same time?
That’s a different universe.

But here we are.
Still standing. Still evolving. Still growing, beautifully and chaotically.

Most days, it feels like I’m juggling ten roles at once: owner, instructor, creator, editor, designer, student, leader.
My mind never stops.
The to-do list never ends.
Sleep is rare.
But passion? Passion is the heartbeat that keeps everything moving.

Someone told me recently, “Samia, look at everything you accomplished this year.”
And it honestly shook me.
Because from my perspective, it never feels like enough.
It feels like we’ve barely touched 2% of the dream.

But sometimes you need someone else to hold up the mirror,  to show you who you’ve become while you were too busy building everything for everyone else.

So this blog is my pause. 

My deep breath.
My gratitude letter.

To every client who has walked into Pilates Goddess Studio, past, present, and future… thank you.
To the incredible women training through Pilates Goddess Academy, the next generation of leaders… thank you.
To everyone patiently waiting for Unleash Your Goddess activewear… thank you for cheering me on while we build something truly special.

This community has carried me through some of my hardest moments and fueled some of my biggest dreams.

As we step into Year 5, I’m more grateful, grounded, and inspired than ever.

To my team, the backbone of this entire world, thank you for showing up with heart, loyalty, and light.
People may not always see your work, but they feel it. I feel it.

To my community, my Goddesses, thank you for choosing me, trusting me, and growing with me.

Here’s to the holidays.
Here’s to 2026, a year of strength, softness, power, and purpose.
And here’s to becoming the women we were always meant to be.

With Love & Gratitude,
Samia 🤍✨
