Sam Castle

Life Coach & Podcast Host

I am Sam, a Master coach, and the first black trans man thought leader to change the narrative in the LGBTIQQ community. I am the husband to my beautiful wife of 4 years MSW Vanessa Castle who reserves on a mobile crisis unit as an ASW providing crisis mental health services. Her fervent dedication lies in supporting the LGBTQ community, employing various therapeutic techniques to aid in healing and empowerment. She is deeply passionate about assisting individuals in overcoming trauma and personal struggles, guiding them towards healing and personal growth.
I am currently building a successful coaching business that is going to allow me to leave my 9 to 5 corporate job. I desire to be the first trans man to have difficult conversations around victimization, blaming, and judging other groups while teaching that we are all worthy and that no one deserves our judgement. I stand before you confident in who I am, and it is my desire to end the suffering for others, while being love and compassion. I am going to spend my days teaching others in the LGBTIQQ community what I have learned about life and how doing the self-work ultimately helped me. We don’t need a pride or any other celebration to validate who we are. We are visible. I will spend my time teaching how to create the life you want, breaking limited beliefs, building confidence all while listening from a place of love and understanding.
it breaks my heart that someone would rather commit suicide than to live as who they are. it is my duty to inspire my LGBTIQQ community that life is worth living and it is possible to fulfill your dreams. I am becoming the stable foundation of belief for others that they can be, do and have anything they want in life no matter how they identify. I want to help stop the discrimination and divisiveness within the community as well. There is enough room in the world for everyone’s human experience. I am going to create opportunity for other black trans men to be able to offer their ideas and innovative creativity to this space of healing.

I am dedicated to bringing about change in the community. it is my desire that we start building each other up and helping one another prosper. We don’t need corporations or other entities to prove our worth. We will know we are worthy based on the self-work we do and from our being.

I desire to create a system where people know who they are and are not afraid to show up to be the best they can be. I am teaching people to look outside of their identity and have their own voice. I am teaching people how to be unique and think for themselves. I am teaching people how to create their own lane. This is my magnificent obsession and I dare you to be bold enough and show up for you. It is time to be you do you and live life courageously as you are!
