270 - What If You Let It All Go? with Samia Burton

In this episode, I welcome back Samia—the vibrant creator behind Sexual Essentials, Not Just Another Sex Podcast, and The Art Exhibit—for an honest, raw, and refreshing conversation about reinvention, resilience, and redefining success. Known for her bold takes and fearless transparency, Samia returns in a new light as The Bankrupt Millionaire, sharing the powerful story of what it means to lose everything—and gain yourself.

We also discuss:

💸 Why she walked away from successful platforms and content creation
🧠 The mental toll of pretending everything’s fine when it’s not
🔥 What “Bankrupt Millionaire” really means—and how joy became the goal
📉 The myth of success and why transparency is a revolutionary act

Samia gets real about navigating the messy middle—the part no one talks about—and offers encouragement for anyone questioning their next step. This episode is for the folks at a crossroads, for those who feel like they’re starting over (again), and for anyone learning to trust themselves in the process.
