Sami you are an INSPIRATION!!! I lost my job due to the pandemic. Since then, I’ve started a RU-vid channel on Money...and it is GROWING!!! Thanks for all of your great content, and to everyone else...NEVER GIVE UP!!!
Please post more videos documenting your hormone imbalance/hair loss/acne journey!! These issues affect SO many women and it's so comforting and helpful to see someone publicly documenting their struggles (and wins!) with these things
Hi lovely! I have found my testosterone was out of whack from working out intensely/doing hiit and weights. I switched to more Pilates and yoga and that really helped balance me out! Wishing you all the best with your journey xx
Love that you talk about your hormone journey, I am currently struggling through the same things. It's comforting to know someone else is going through the same things. Cant wait for your hormone update video! Love you videos!
I love how self aware you are and how much you strive to feel good about yourself, physically and MENTALLY. I think that so often, people cut out the mental part of health and promote only physical appeal. I hope you keep looking and finding what works for you! I have watched your channel for so long, and I truly look up to you and your health journey. I have dealt with some mental/physical health problems and I am on my own wellness journey now. Love you Sami!!!!
as someone who really suffers with hormone imbalance and pcos it’s so so nice to hear someone i follow speaking about having the same problems. wishing u all the best on your journey xxx
Hi Sami! New follower of yours here. I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2018. Been a long hard journey, but after seeing an endocrinologist, I was prescribed Metformin & spironolactone (didn’t lose weight), and that combo has helped loads for me. No more symptoms, and blood tests are finally normal. However, I am much happier/have less anxiety now than in 2018... I think hormones are so related to our inner emotions, more than we know
im obsessed with you and your lifestyle! You are seriously such an inspiration to me, and you motivate me everyday to be the best version of myself! I LOVE YOU SAMI!
You are so welcome to update more here on youtube. I love your vlogs and you inspire so much. Keep doing what you do and hope it works out for you with everything!

Hi Sami! the limit of caffeine that it's safe to have in a day is actually a lot higher than you would expect! It's about 400mg a day, which corresponds to 4 or 5 cups of coffee. That said, if the coffee you're drinking isn't the highest quality, maybe the caffeine intake is the least of your worries. Make sure you research that as well! I drink 100% arabica coffee from my moka pot, it's my absolute favorite
Hello Sami, caffein is actually a good and benefiacial for your body, if you drink it in good time (because of the light intensity and the level of your hormones, which changes in the day). You can actually drink 3-5 of these cups (espresso is i believe 25 mg per pot) and it's still "good". But half-life of caffein is like 4 hours so don't drink it too late in the afternoon. And there is one rule, that you need to stic and that's listen to your body:).
I started trying to do the 5 minute journal because of you! And I am hoping to take up meditation as well! I hope I am able to keep it up 🤞 Thank you thank you for being so motivating. Absolutely love your videos and can't wait for SoulSync!! ❤️❤️ Much love from Vancouver Canada!
I’m struggle because I can’t understand so many things. The fitness program that I have give me movements with heavy weights. But seeing you seem enough doing light weights and body bands. I don’t know what type is the best .
You and Sanne are my biggest welness / fitness inspirations ! You two are so genuine and down to earth / natural 💓 thanks for being so open and vulnerable with us. I really admire that. Also CANNOT wait for you guys to launch the new wellness program. Lots of love
I absolutely LOVE your videos! I’ve made myself workout playlists out of your workout videos for every day of the week , I’m really seeing results AND I’m super motivated. Can finally keep a schedule!
Re: caffeine I think it depends on the person. The half life of caffeine can be quite long meaning it’s still in your system when you go to sleep. Even if you’re falling asleep, it impacts sleep quality... similar to how alcohol before bed prevents a truly restful sleep. I’ve noticed that since I stopped drinking coffee after 12pm that my sleep quality is better :)
Wow , 100 % . I used to drink coffee and sleep but not anymore. Lately I have been drinking coffee just in the morning and still can’t sleep at night . I stopped drinking coffee and now I sleep happily.
@@noufalsulaiman8650 Oh, interesting! Everyone metabolizes caffeine differently, so I think it's just a matter of experimenting with your own body. I even started to switch to just a black tea some mornings vs. a cup of coffee. It still has caffeine but way less. "One 8-ounce cup of brewed coffee contains an average of 95 mg of caffeine, compared with 47 mg in the same serving of black tea." - Still getting a bit of a kick, but not as much!
Oh my gosh!! I am also on spirolactine because I have unstable hormones and love exercising. It has caused me to struggle with weight, insomnia, mood swings, etc. It feels really nice to hear someone speak on the same problems I am currently struggling with.
I had a brand reach out to me today called "Veracity Self Care" & they offer at-home hormone testing kits for skin problems, coming out in June. I thought this was the best idea ever!! I have hormonal acne too so I'm excited to try. Love these videos! I always get good ideas
Hey Sami! Liked your video very much! About your caffeine question: a total daily dose of 400mg is totally fine, you can even go up to 500mg without any disavantage for your health (200mg for pregnant women). Nespresso capsules differ in caffeine content, but an espresso roughly contains 60-70mg and a lungo 90-100mg.
Not sure if this is helpful but I used to work at starbucks and remember that 1 shot had approximately 75mg of caffeine versus a tall/small cup of coffee that has 175-250mg or so. Also, the lighter the roast, the more caffeine it has.
I would highly suggest you to check out the cycle syncing method by Alisa Vitti! This is truly life changing information. Don't give up you will get there! ❤
Omg!!! I also had super bad effects while taking spironolactone! I started working with an acupuncturist/alternative doctor and also taking maca... It's been a journey but im finally getting better :)
I think it’s totally fine! We have a drip coffee maker with an espresso option and I have regular coffee and then as a treat or if I’m really tired I’ll have an espresso.
Sami you're the best. I really like this video because my favourite videos are generally about what I eat in a day or my workout routine kind of things , so this is sooo good. Also, I would like to know that how many hours or minutes you usually workout in a day ?
Hi sami thanks for your Videos - I Love them - they are always an Inspiration! And about your Period i also lost it, I think Its from too much Sport.. If you have any tipps How u got it back please let us know in your Next video 😘
Hey sami! I am Wondering if you take any gym supplements or took any before and if you know they have an impact on hormones. Thank you for talking about that topic I am now thinking about that!
I love my nespresso! I have drip coffee in the am, then in the afternoon I'll either make a latte (with the biano legerro, less caffeine than the other pods) orrrrr I love the half decaf pods!
Everytime I see Sami standing in front of that mirror with the camera I get paranoid that she’s going to accidentally step back and fall down the stairs 😂😂 but it’s the best spot for full length outfit pics ❤️❤️
I have a hormonal imbalance too but it is a little different I haven't had my period for almost 3 years since I use to have anorexia. still trying to get it back even tho ive been recovered for sooo long I hope I get it back soon 😭 I have increased my calories and decreased my exercise intensity only sticking to strength training and pilates....no cardio or high intensity
good video! :) keep it up! :) for me when it comes to nutrition you don't wanna be overly obesssed with it nor feel like it's torturing you (80 percent of the time is eating healthy and 20 percent of the time is about treating yourself with sweetz) if you're a foodie and love talking about it in your videos you think you'll create your own website in the future to post all your recipes down? let me know
I remember in a video you did with Sanne you mentioned that you are on hormonal birth control, is that still the case? That probably goes without saying it will affect your hormones, especially the combination pill. I had really bad side effects from that so I am on progesterone-only birth control pills now, and that has been awesome for me. Sore boobs first month but that was it. Zero period pain now which is so nice, and I’ve noticed less body hair growth (I’ve always had it in weird places too). It could help you since you have low progesterone.
Sami! I really want to hear your process about the whole hormonal imbalance thing.. i got tested a couple of months ago, and I had the same thing( high levels of testosterone)& i had cysts in my ovaries before(where my period stopped for a while), and the endocrinologist diagnosed me with pcos and just said to take birth control!!!! But i didnt wanna go on birth control .. I’m taking some herbs & i am trying to take a holistic approach to heal my body (bc western medicine is not gonna cure this thing& i just am not a fan of pills) So, i reallly wanna hear what you are doing about this
Caffeine level differs with each person, if you start not being able to sleep, hyper, or diarrhoea etc. That's usually a sign it's too high for a person, each person's caffeine tolerance varies with genetics :)
Just found you, love this video!nI had all of your issues and solved every one of them with the carnivore diet. Sounds drastic but I was considering accutane and this is no more drastic than that.
