Discover how corporate high‑achiever‑turned‑entrepreneur Samantha Kris transformed her natural talent for goal‑setting into the Bossing Up movement, a platform designed to help people step into their inner boss and pursue a more intentional version of success. In this episode of the Montreal Marketeers Podcast, Samantha walks through the shift from rapidly climbing the corporate ladder to building a career around coaching, community, and purpose‑driven work.
After advancing quickly in the corporate world, Samantha realized that her true strength lay in her ability to set clear goals and reverse‑engineer them into practical, achievable plans. Driven by a desire to help others experience that same clarity and progress, she chose to become a success coach focused on supporting entrepreneurs and ambitious professionals.
What stands out in Samantha’s journey is how deeply she cares about both structure and human connection. As someone who loves building communities and interacting with others, she combines goal‑setting frameworks with a supportive environment that encourages people to define success for themselves instead of following someone else’s script.
Today, Samantha spends most of her time growing the Bossing Up movement through coaching, speaking, and storytelling. Her work centers on helping people identify what they truly want, break it into manageable steps, and stay accountable as they navigate the uncertainties of entrepreneurship and career change.
By positioning Bossing Up as both a methodology and a community, Samantha is steadily cementing her reputation as a credible success coach and movement builder. The episode offers a candid look at what it takes to leave a traditional path, build a values‑aligned business, and use your strongest skill—in her case, goal‑setting—as the foundation for helping others thrive.
