Hi, I’m Samantha Wendt!
From a young child, I was taught how to wear my clothes, how to style my hair, and, most of all, how to hide my emotions so no one would see the pain inside. Those lessons followed me into adulthood. By my mid-20s, I was over 240 pounds, exhausted, and trapped in a sugar addiction I called comfort—but it was really my crutch in a world that dismissed me. I followed every doctor’s order, every diet, every rule… until it nearly cost me my life.
I carried trauma like a shadow—bullying, harassment, abuse, and silence—but I survived. Then a naturopathic doctor looked me in the eyes and said, “If you don’t change, by thirty you’ll be gone.” That moment shattered me—but it also lit a fire I couldn’t ignore. I began reclaiming myself—losing over 80 pounds, breaking free from sugar, and awakening spiritually and physically.
Life didn’t pause. Miscarriage. Years of longing for a child. A car accident that left me with an undiagnosed concussion and broken hand. And in 2020, when the doctor who first saved me passed away, God whispered, “Now it’s your turn.” That was the moment my calling ignited.
Through all the storms, my husband stood with me, and together we welcomed our daughter—the child who became the heartbeat of our home and the reminder that restoration is possible, even after deep brokenness. My family witnessed my healing firsthand: my trauma, my faith, and the God-led restoration that became my mission.
I pursued certification not for accolades, but for obedience—becoming a Certified Master Herbalist, Facial Analysis Master, Trauma-Informed Coach, and SHAPE ReClaimed Practitioner. Today, with God, I lead Empowered by Nature Wellness Center, guiding women who have been silenced, dismissed, and overlooked to reclaim their bodies, identities, and God-given purpose.
When I’m not ministering healing, you’ll find me hiking in the woods, swimming, or enjoying time with my husband, daughter, and dog. I am reminded daily that ashes truly can become anointed.




Officially opening its virtual doors on March 21, 2021, Empowered by Nature Wellness Center was birthed from ashes, obedience, and a divine mandate to restore what hell tried to steal. Rooted in Yahweh’s truth and trauma-informed care, we are a Spirit-led sanctuary for the wayward, the weary, and those dismissed by Western medicine.
Here, healing isn’t surface-level. We combine God’s voice/word, Why the Face™ (WTF) Facial Analysis, and Master Herbalism to reach the root of your struggle, not just mask symptoms. SoulForge Alchemy is the heartbeat of Empowered by Nature Wellness Center: a monthly transformative journey that guides women from burnout, trauma, and identity loss into commissioned, restored, Spirit-led wholeness.
Our clients come burdened by trauma, chronic cycles, sugar addiction, and exhaustion. They leave renewed, awakened, and walking in divine alignment, carrying the fire of God’s restoration into every area of their lives.
This is not fake healing. This is full restoration—body, soul, and spirit—through the One True Healer. At the very center of our work is Isaiah 58:12, guiding us to rebuild, restore, and raise up the broken as vessels of God’s glory.

Vision
At Empowered by Nature Wellness Center, we envision a world where women, who have been dismissed, misdiagnosed, and silenced by Western medicine, are fully restored—body, identity, and purpose. We believe in divine healing that doesn’t just cover symptoms, but reaches the root, bringing forth wholeness in body, mind, and spirit. Our vision is to break the chains of broken systems and to empower each woman to rise into the fullness of her calling, living free from the lies that hold her captive. We are a movement of healing, truth, and holy restoration, where the power of God transforms lives and ashes are turned into anointed purpose.

Mission
Our mission is simple: to guide women from the depths of misdiagnosis, trauma, and exhaustion into a life of true healing and restoration. We stand against the system that abuses, overlooks, and harms with false promises, instead offering a path rooted in God’s design for holistic well-being—mind, body, and spirit. Through Spirit-led healing, divine intervention, and personalized care, we restore what has been stolen and equip women to live in their true identity and purpose. This is not a wellness center; this is a battlefield of restoration. No more survival—we are here to thrive. We are here to heal in the way God intended.
