An Inspired Chat with Samone Raenelle of Pearland

We’re looking forward to introducing you to Samone Raenelle. Check out our conversation below.

Good morning Samone, we’re so happy to have you here with us and we’d love to explore your story and how you think about life and legacy and so much more. So let’s start with a question we often ask: What do the first 90 minutes of your day look like?
The first 90 minutes of my day.. I start with stretching to wake my body up, followed by prayer and meditation to align my spirit. I give myself time to sit still in quiet reflection, drink plenty of water to refresh my system, and then move into some form of cardio. That rhythm sets the tone for my day-physically energized, spiritually centered, and mentally prepared to show up fully in purpose. I strive to have days like this often.

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
Hi, I’m Samone Raenelle- a life coach, author, speaker, and founder of From Defeat 2 Victory LLC and Victorious Woman University. I help women heal, evolve, and walk boldly in their purpose by embracing their true, authentic selves. My work is rooted in faith, emotional wholeness, feminine power, and self love.

My journey hasn’t been easy. I’ve overcome divorce, deep emotional pain, and identity loss, but each chapter shaped me into the woman I am today. What once felt like defeat became the foundation for my purpose. And now, I hold space for other women to do the same — through coaching, community, storytelling, and transformative events.
I’m currently relaunching my nonprofit, continuing to grow Victorious Woman University, and preparing for my upcoming Amplify Your Voice Masterclass. I’m also pursuing my degree in social work, with the ultimate goal of opening my own therapy practice. Everything I do centers around creating safe, soul-nourishing spaces where women feel seen, supported, and victorious.

Great, so let’s dive into your journey a bit more. What part of you has served its purpose and must now be released?
The part of me that over-explains, over-functions, and overextends just to feel safe, seen, or worthy.
The version of me that thought love had to be earned through proving, pleasing, or performing.

She served me when I needed survival…
But I’ve outgrown survival. I’ve learned to just BE.

What have been the defining wounds of your life—and how have you healed them?
One of the deepest wounds I carried was abandonment wrapped in performance. I spent years believing I had to do more to be loved, serve more to be accepted, and shrink myself to stay safe. It showed up in relationships, in faith spaces, and even in how I treated myself, constantly proving, never fully resting.

Another defining wound was divorce — not just the ending of a marriage, but the unraveling of who I thought I was supposed to be. It stripped me down emotionally, spiritually, and financially. I had to face myself without the titles, the roles, or the applause.

And yet… that was the doorway to healing.

I healed through stillness. Through surrender. Through learning to mother myself. Through redefining my faith outside of performance. Through honoring my body, using my voice, and creating spaces for other women to do the same.

Healing didn’t happen overnight — it happened every time I chose me, every time I broke a cycle, every time I gave myself permission to rest, receive, and rise again.

Sure, so let’s go deeper into your values and how you think. Is the public version of you the real you?
Absolutely, but it hasn’t always been.

There was a time when I showed up publicly as who I thought I had to be- the strong one, the church girl, the encourager. I wore confidence like armor, even when I was breaking inside. But the more I healed, the more I realized that authenticity is my true power.

Now, the woman you see online, whether I’m teaching, walking through a transition, or posting myself doing my cardio- it is me. Unfiltered. Aligned. Feminine. Free. I’m not perfect, but I’m genuine. And I’ve given myself permission to evolve out loud.

There are sacred parts of me I protect, but the voice, my softness, my passion, my humor, the healing you see?
That’s the real Samone. And she’s just getting started.

Okay, we’ve made it essentially to the end. One last question before you go. When do you feel most at peace?
I feel most at peace when I’m in full alignment- not rushing, not proving, not reaching. Just being.

It’s in those quiet, still moments- early morning walks, worship, the sun hitting my skin- when I remember that I’m not behind, I’m not broken… I’m becoming.

Peace finds me when I’m journaling after a long day, praying with no performance, or laughing with my sons. Or having deep transparent conversations with my sisters or friends.

I used to chase peace in perfection and people-pleasing… now I cultivate it through boundaries, stillness, softness, and choosing myself without guilt.

I protect my peace like it’s purpose- because it is.
