Transform

Sami Clarke and Sami Spalter are back, now on opposite coasts, to catch up on where they’re at in life. It starts with two very different mornings: Sami S at Babies First Halloween with Sunny dressed as a sun, and Sami C crawling up her stairs at 4:30am before fainting from period pain.

Tune in as they talk about watching the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and the comparison content that came after it, including the six weeks postpartum Angels and the “train like a model” videos. Sami S explains why she watches the show as art and doesn’t compare herself to the models. Sami C says that if you want to feel strong, sexy and confident like they do, you have to start loving your body now instead of waiting until you look a certain way.

From there they get into friendship. They talk about the difference between support and advice, why you should celebrate a friend leaving a toxic job the same way you’d celebrate her getting married, and what a year in review would look like if it counted the hard conversations instead of the highlights.

Sami C talks about speaking on the NextGen panel in Miami and how being clueless when she started helped her. Sami S shares her first fall in New York. They also preview FORM’s Black Friday offers and the Form Sport collection coming in December.

If you’re tired of only celebrating the big moments, start with this one.

Sami Spalter’s Q+A has a surprise co-host this week. Sam Pezzullo, the guy from the viral sourdough skit, sat in on a recording, asked to come on, and ended up reading your questions Jeopardy style.

Tune in as Sami takes you inside the new house, from the shingled cottage you can’t see from the street to an inside with not one white wall. She gets into her last night in Austin putting Sunny to bed in the first home she and Andrew ever bought, how growing up with her single dad shaped the way she thinks about money, and why she stopped nickel and diming everything. She also covers Sunny’s sleep (no four month regression, because it was hard from day one), why fed is best, her top baby products, and how their nanny Joanie ended up moving across the country with them.

She closes on not drinking. Sami shares why she avoids the word “sober,” what it was like growing up around addiction, and why, coming up on 1,000 days without alcohol, it’s simply her choice.

If you’ve been sending Sami your questions, she’s answering the big ones.

Sami Clarke has spent most of her life trying to get things right. In this solo episode, she shares what changed when she let go of right and wrong and started listening to what feels true to her.

Tune in as Sami gets into the practices that have helped her trust herself again. She starts small, following gut feelings on everyday decisions to build the muscle. She looks at the beliefs running in the background, like the one she found this year: that her worth came from how much she did. She talks about what human design taught her about how she works best, about building a relationship with God on her own terms, and about the boundaries she set on social media so other people's opinions stop drowning out her own.

If you're ready to stop waiting for permission to do things your way, this one is for you.

Sami Spalter and Andrew are recording from their new East Hampton studio, and they’re finally telling the story behind the move. It looked impulsive from the outside. On the inside, it had been building for a long time.

Tune in as Sami shares what it took to let go of her mom’s home in Boca, a house her family held for 40 years that still smelled like her. She talks about learning that holding on to a place isn’t the same as holding on to a person, and about the day after it sold, when a chance open house led them to the home Sami already knew by heart from years of following its interior designer. Andrew talks about being the planner to Sami’s dreamer, and together they get into why leaving Austin wasn’t about running from something. It was about finally answering the pull toward something else.

If there’s a change you keep saying you’ll make when the timing is right, this one might be the push you need.

Sami Clarke and Sami Spalter are recording in New York City with a conversation that started over breakfast and turned into an hour long rant they knew had to be an episode. It started in Sami Spalter's closet. She had over 30 pairs of jeans that didn't fit, and she realized she'd been keeping a whole room of tiny reminders that she wasn't enough as she is.

Tune in as the Samis talk about the energy of proving, the shoulds we never chose for ourselves, and who handed them to us in the first place. Sami Clarke shares how learning she's a projector in human design gave her permission to move differently, and why a mermaid painting she found at an art store reminded her to trust what she actually likes. Sami Spalter talks about her grandma Bubby, a Holocaust survivor, telling her she was too sensitive. She also shares how grieving her mom taught her that no one should shrink their needs to make someone else comfortable, and the night she wore jeans and a sweater while everyone else showed up in gowns. They also get into tall poppy syndrome, why their friendship works because they're so different, and how a relationship becomes a magnifying glass for who you really are.

If you've been dimming yourself to fit in somewhere, this is your reminder that the only permission you need is your own.
