Most women were never taught how our own bodies actually work. So we outsource that knowledge to whoever is loudest. The Through Line is a long form interview podcast for women who are done outsourcing. This isn’t just about the body. Each episode is a real conversation with a guest who has earned the right to speak on their subject, through years of study, practice, or lived experience. Together we cover the full terrain of wellbeing: the mechanics and mystery of the body, our emotions, aesthetics, fertility and hormones, western medicine and alternative modalities, what it means to get to know yourself while still becoming, the exploration of spirituality and femininity, movement, self-limiting beliefs, and the quiet architecture of a sovereign life. Underneath every conversation lies the same foundation: the construction of that internal compass that guides someone’s choices from deep resonance. Hosted by Samantha Schreiber, a former lawyer turned commercial real estate professional and fitness instructor who spent years questioning her habits, her ideals, and where she was putting her energy, until she was forced to seek out her own answers. New episodes weekly.

    12. Arielle Leavitt on Solopreneurship, Why Fearing Failure is Unnecessary, and the Power of Play

    Arielle Leavitt is a renaissance woman. She began her career as an entrepreneur when she became the Director of Operations at Medamerica Rehab at 23 years old, learning as she went along and leading that business into prosperity. Today, she continues to operate Medamerica Rehab and has since co-founded Social Arch, a content creation and networking space, while growing another business called Your Bossy Friend. She has even made the time to date on a podcast, with the intention of meeting her husband. She is also the reason I started The Through Line. In this episode, Arielle and I get into how she has jumped headfirst into all of these ventures without looking over her shoulder, what she has learned along the way and why she simply does not believe in failure as a concept. We also talk about ingenuity, taking inspiration from the people you surround yourself with and how we are all just out here looking for permission to take a leap into the unknown.  Follow Arielle Leavitt on Instagram: @yourbossyfriend.arielle Follow me on Instagram: @samdschreiber Follow The Through Line on Instagram: @thethroughlinepod

    11. Samantha Lemaitre on Evolution, Yoga, & Why the Relationship You Have With Yourself Matters Most

    Samantha Lemaitre is a true inspiration. A wife. A mother. A fitness teacher who fills your heart through movement.  In this episode, Samantha and I get into what yoga actually is (and it has nothing to do with being flexible), what has motivated her to welcome change into her life and move in alignment with that change, and what it looks like to grow as an individual within the framework of true family.  We also talk about building true community, what it looks like to hold boundaries for yourself and for your children and how perfectionism is armor. This episode is so special because Samantha has been a true inspiration for me as a teacher and it is such an honor to share her musings. It is about the quiet subtleties of life we get the privilege to notice, how movement can steady us from the outside in and how it is okay to accept all of the things about ourselves.

    10. Jillian Kenney on Strength, Surrender, and Why Movement Is Medicine

    Jillian Kenney has taken on a number of roles: a Division I cross country runner, an Ocean Rescue lifeguard, a firefighter paramedic for a decade, a national champion rower, a fitness instructor, mother and wife. Underneath every one of those roles is lies a dedication to show up fully.  In this episode, Jillian and I get into what it actually means to teach and not perform, why she can't stand instructors who film themselves mid-class, and what it took to build a life where ambition and family both get to matter. Jillian shares the fear she's faced head-on, from flipping a boat in eight-foot surf before a national championship to stepping into a role that stretched her far past her comfort zone, and why she believes most of the fear we carry is really just ego in disguise. We also talk about the real difference between working out and training, why yoga isn't a lesser practice just because it isn't about pushing the hardest or fastest, and why the deposits you make into your body today are the ones you'll be withdrawing from decades from now. This episode is about strength in every sense of the word and the quiet, stubborn resilience that comes from knowing exactly who you're doing it all for.

    9. Michelle Galoob on Intuition, Surrender and Learning to Trust the Voice Inside You

    Michelle Galoob is an intuitive guide, but she didn’t come to that title easily. For most of her life, she thought her intuitive gifts were simply her very own thoughts. It took a rock bottom moment, a string of synchronicities and a brave leap to make her realize she was meant to fully step into her role as an intuitive guide.  In this episode, Michelle and I talk about what intuition actually is: not a mystical gift reserved for a chosen few but a language everyone already speaks. We get into how she finally learned to trust the downloads she was receiving instead of second-guessing them into silence, why surrender isn’t the same as giving up, and why so many of us stay stuck at the train station waiting for the “right” train instead of just getting on one. Michelle shares what it means to write a personal mission statement instead of chasing a personal brand, how she’s teaching her own kids to trust their inner voices before looking outward, and why every hard, disorienting season of her life turned out to be preparation instead of punishment. This conversation is not about predicting the future. It’s about learning to hear what you already know, and having the courage to move on those knowings imperfectly and often before you feel ready.

    8. Nicole Lotterman on Acupuncture, Chinese Medicine, and Learning to Go Where the Peace Is

    At any given time, our bodies and our gut instincts are communicating to us through sensations and subtle signals. Most of us, however, have never been taught how to listen. This episode is about what it takes to learn that skill, to get quiet enough with ourselves to willingly participate in that self-conversation. Acupuncture is a modality that reinforces the quiet stillness and that skill-building.  Nicole Lotterman is an acupuncture physician and Chinese medicine practitioner. She is also MY acupuncturist. Her path started with years of being dismissed by Western medicine, being offered suppression instead of understanding, until something in her insisted there was another way. What she found wasn’t just a new treatment. It was an entirely different relationship with her own body, one built on paying attention instead of waiting for a crisis to force the issue. In this episode, we get into what acupuncture and Chinese medicine actually offer women beyond pain relief: a framework for reading the body’s patterns before they become emergencies, a practice that forces you to sit still enough to hear what you’ve been avoiding, and a philosophy built on getting the basics right first. Nicole talks about why she believes proactive care and noticing what your body is telling you before it’s screaming are some of the most powerful things a woman can do for her own health. This episode isn’t only about acupuncture. It’s about trust, the kind you build with yourself, one quiet moment at a time, until you finally know how to hear what has been resonating within all along.

    7. Dr. Leah Roberts on the Truth About Fertility, Egg Freezing, and Why Knowledge is Power

    Dr. Leah Roberts is a reproductive endocrinologist and the medical director at Boca Fertility. She has also lived within the exact uncertainty she helps women walk through in her role as a fertility doctor: a difficult pregnancy with her son, a diagnosis that made carrying again unsafe and navigation of the path through IVF to have her daughter.  In this episode, we get into what facing fertility challenges really means, why your tracking menstrual cycle is a vital sign most of us were never taught to take note of, and why AMH (the number everyone's chasing) is more nuanced than the internet makes it seem. Dr. Roberts breaks down the difference between IUI and IVF, why egg and sperm freezing timelines matter more than people realize, and why waiting for a fertility appointment to feel "necessary enough" often costs people time they didn't need to lose.  We also talk about what it's like to sit on both sides of the exam table: the loss of control she felt as a patient and why she believes the answer for women is to advocate for themselves.  This episode is about fertility and proactivity, why facing the hard questions early is so much easier than facing them in crisis and why learning to understand your own body is vital to a women's health.

    6. Holly Bertone on Emotional Eating, Nervous System Safety, and Why Every Insult Is a Confession

    Holly Bertone spent 13 years as chief of staff for FBI counterintelligence until this work began to affect her health profoundly. In the years that followed, she realized that the exact skills she'd used to track patterns and spot threats in her role at the FBI were the missing piece to gain an understanding of something much more personal: her own relationship with food. In this episode, we get into what emotional eating actually is, why it's not a willpower or calorie problem but a nervous system one, and why trying to fix a fast, automatic, emotional response with logic and meal plans rarely works. Holly breaks down her framework for spotting the patterns, interrupting them, and eventually shifting them into an identity where the healthy choice stops requiring a fight at all. We talk about the shame that keeps this struggle hidden, why naming a pattern is the first real act of power over it, and the mantra that's carried Holly through putting herself out there publicly: every insult is a confession, and it says more about the person saying it than it does about you.
