The Samis on Postpartum Depression, Endometriosis, and Running a Company Through All of It

Both Samis are in New York City, recording back to back, and this one goes everywhere — the kind of shoot-the-shit that only happens when they're in the same room with time to actually talk.

Sami Spalter opens up about what it really looked like to extend her maternity leave when postpartum depression hit its hardest point — the moment she called Sami Clarke and said she was completely unwell, and what it meant to fully step away from a company she'd built from nothing. Sami Clarke shares her own health journey: navigating endometriosis and hormone imbalance, getting off birth control that wasn't working for her body, starting progesterone, and how getting her blood work done through Function Health finally gave her the answers she needed to actually take charge of her health.

Tune in as they talk through what it looked like to come back to FORM after all of it — finding that the team had risen, realizing where their eyes actually needed to be, and remembering who they built this brand to be in the first place. They also get into social media, Sami C's plan to return to YouTube after two years away, and the question they keep coming back to: are you building for the world to see, or building the world you actually want to live in?

If you're in a season where your body, your work, and your sense of self are all asking for something at once, this one is for you.
