Bring your dreams to life, one action at a time!
Hello there,
Here is something deeply personal, a dream I have had on my mind for a very long time: producing and hosting a show where transformative conversations happen. I am happy to share that I am finally recording the show I envisioned for many years.

For context, my Dad was a bonafide journalist, a news anchor and a university communications professor in Congo, Brazzaville. As a little girl, I watched him countless times preparing to go live on TV and Radio. This may well be when I caught the storytelling bug.
I embraced storytelling by starting a fashion blog back in 2008. My goal was to inspire and empower others through the stories and interviews of designers/creatives I met and connected with. While I enjoyed blogging and became good at it, a part of me never quite fully let go of the idea of producing and hosting a show.

Along the way, I started freelancing as an online branding consultant and social media manager. I opened and ran a thriving agency for a few years until it became clear that I was not operating in my zone of genius. This led me to explore and record the Boss Women Unfold video podcast. An experience I cherish for everything it opened my eyes to.

Today, I have decided to stop beating around the bush. I am investing the time and resources necessary to record the first episodes of The Noëlly Sam Show, a series of transformative conversations to encourage you and give you the tools to activate your zone of genius. I aim for the show to be a collection of musings, meditations and moments you can always go back to when the going gets tough, and it will.
The Noëlly Sam Show is my answer to a dream left dormant for far too long. We don’t know how much time we have. Start now, start small, take action and evolve along the way.
If you’re reading this and haven’t already, I hope this personal note inspires YOU to take action on your most cherished and perhaps even secret dream. Your first step doesn't have to be huge. Baby steps count too.
I leave you with this question: what is the one small action you can take over the next three minutes, to help bring your dream to life?
