THE PERSON BEHIND ONE SHIFT

I’m Samantha Wines, an ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC), Yoga for First Responders® Licensed & Certified Instructor, and integrative wellness practitioner.

HOW I GOT HERE

I spent more than 15 years working in high-performance environments where pressure, deadlines and constant demands were part of the job. I learned how to perform at a high level and I also learned how easy it is to normalize operating under pressure.

Over time, my work shifted toward understanding what happens beneath performance: the patterns, expectations and habits that shape how we respond to pressure and change.

That became the foundation for One Shift.

Growing up in a Navy family, I have lived overseas on many occasions which has given me an appreciation for different cultures, perspectives, and ways of seeing the world.  It has also taught me that regardless of where we live or what we do, we all carry patterns that shape how we respond to pressure, relationships, and change. 

Since my teenage years, I’ve navigated anxiety rooted in difficult life experiences. Like many high achievers, I became very good at pushing through. What I eventually learned is that pushing through isn’t the same as thriving.

That realization sparked a lifelong commitment to understanding human behavior, performance, and well-being. I am excited to partner with you.
