You need to take care of yourself first. When you get on a plane and they tell you to put your mask on first in case of an emergency, it’s because you’re no good to anyone else if you pass out first.

Day-to-day life is no different. The best version of yourself is one that’s taken care of. This looks different for everyone—and it might even change from day to day.

For me, exercise and coffee are non-negotiable. When I start there, everything else falls into place much more easily. I’m in a better headspace when I have both, and when I feel good, I have more capacity to help others feel the same.

How do you take care of yourself?

Hi! I’m Sam, owner of Foster Wellness & Performance.
I help people move freely and fully—and I got here through my own journey of change and growth.

I’m originally from Galesville, WI, a small town of about 1,700 people. I grew up around a lot of great people, but I always knew I would leave. I played a lot of sports, but track and field was my ticket out of there—and I ran with it. Disclaimer: I’ve been a Chiefs fan since I was 10, and my Kansas residence was coincidental. I am NOT a Packers fan.

Track brought me to Kansas, where I attended Wichita State as a member of the track team for five years. While there, I went from majoring in Psychology to Exercise Science, and eventually to Elementary PE.

After college, I spent six years teaching PE at Stanley Elementary. I loved it, but over time, burnout and the need for more balance pushed me to make a change.

My wife Jenny and I met in college, and our two boys are the heart of everything I do. I wanted a life where I could show up fully for them—and still support others in their own health journeys.

Starting Foster Wellness & Performance has allowed me to do just that. I get to live the life I envisioned for my family while helping others do the same.

The start date for Fit With Foster Bootcamp is moving back ONE WEEK. Due to unforeseen snow and wisdom tooth removal, we will be getting started NEXT Tuesday, the 14th. Sessions will still run 12 weeks, but will go from January 14th - April 3.

However, this means you’ve got a bonus week to signup if you’ve been in the fence. Stay safe in the snow and see you next week!

Happy Holidays from Foster Wellness!
