Coach. Athlete. Strategist.
For women who lead — and want their bodies to show it.
I’m Sami—
Women’s Performance Coach. Nutrition Strategist. Higher Ed Leader. Lifelong Athlete. Founder of RESOLVE Coaching — built for women who are done starting over.
I’ve always been an athlete — but I haven’t always trained smart.
Like so many women, I spent years chasing performance with no real plan.
More running. More lifting. More pushing.
Ignoring my body’s signals and calling it “discipline.”
Eventually, I realized: I wasn’t building strength. I was building burnout.
And I wasn’t alone.
Too many high-functioning, driven women are caught in that same cycle:
Doing more. Getting less. Feeling stuck. And blaming themselves.
I built RESOLVE to break that cycle.
These days, I don’t train to prove anything — I train to protect everything.
My strength goals aren’t about perfection or PRs anymore.
They’re about staying resilient, metabolically healthy, and fully here for the people I love.
After losing both of my parents—one suddenly, one slowly—I made a decision:
My kids will never have to watch me decline.
My parents didn’t have access to the science, support, or systems we do now.
I carry their memory with me — and I coach from a place of choosing differently
because I can.
That commitment is at the core of how I coach.
Why RESOLVE?
Because most fitness advice wasn’t built for women like us.
Not for the leaders. The decision-makers. The ones carrying pressure at work and at home.
Not for women in midlife who want longevity and strength — not just another round of macros and motivation.
I coach women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond —
Women who lead teams, raise families, run businesses, and still want to feel sharp, strong, and fully present.
At RESOLVE, we don’t chase perfection.
We train with purpose.

And beyond the titles: I’m a runner, lifter, mom of two grown kids, and a woman navigating this season of life right alongside you.

You don’t need to start over.
You need RESOLVE.
