Today we’d like to introduce you to Tanisha Sam.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
I am a Creole Fitness Queen originally from the bayou of Opelousas, Louisiana. I am a 43-year-old Fitness Specialist and mother to 3 amazing beings… Alexsor Lillian, Shamosa Aziah and my only son Lance! This year will mark 20 years that I have been VEGAN! It is truly the best and most healthiest decisions I ever made! Back in 1998, I balloon to 208 pounds and was struck with high blood pressure!
At 24 years old, I said to myself, “YOU ARE TOO YOUNG TO BE THIS BIG WITH HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE!!” Therefore, I cut all meat and dairy out and started power walking. In one month, I lost 25 pounds. Then, I started jogging and creating my own workouts. To make a long story short, I got certified to be a Fitness Specialist.
As time went on, I achieved my diploma in Holistic Fitness, Kickboxing Fitness, and Nutrition. It has always been my goal to help others achieve success through a holistic lifestyle that us MEAT FREE! My journey and drive to reach others led me here! I relocated to Atlanta in 2005.
Since then, I helped to change the views of many through vegan meal plans and Bodysculpting Fitness. You will never TRULY understand what your body is trying to tell you unless you TRULY listen to it!
We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc. – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
My journey has not been easy due to the negative aspects and hardships of a bad ex-marriage. When you are in a negative relationship, it is hard to achieve your goals and reach your level of success. It’s like planting a seed in the damaged soil.
So let’s switch gears a bit and go into the Right Face Fitness story. Tell us more about the business.

I am so proud to be partnered with the man of my dreams. It is the Great Gift to work alongside another beast of a trainer and truly connect!
What sets me apart from others is the fact that I am a jack of all trades. I am a Natural Figure Competitor who is VEGAN and trains clients in ancient Bellydance. Plus, our business is a combination of over 40 years of training experience combined.
