Sami (@samirosefitness) is a health & fitness coach. From being overweight in her early 20's, to competing at her leanest state in 9 bikini shows, she now lives somewhere in the middle and focuses on living her healthiest, happiest, and most balanced life, and teaches her clients and followers how to do the same!
