Hi, I’m Virginia Hunter Sampson. I want to share with you some simple practices that will empower you to start creating a life that reflects who you are and what you want.


I discovered my power to live authentically as a result of the many challenges I faced in my life.

I was a litigation attorney in a man's world where I was bullied and belittled. I became a victim of domestic violence. I was a full-time caregiver to my husband for three years after he was diagnosed with A.L.S. while caring for four young children. My youngest child was two weeks old when we received the diagnosis.  Two of my children turned to alcohol and drugs to deal with their pain an grief.

I was a divorcee, a step-mother, a widow and I am a single parent to four children.

I felt like a victim of my life and my circumstances. I felt I had no power to change anything in my life. I started on my journey to becoming empowered when I discovered compassion especially self- compassion. That led me to so much more which I want to share with all of you.

I have been an attorney for over 30 years. I currently practice elder law, estate planning, probate and business law in the Central Texas area.

I am an author, speaker and coach helping others to become empowered and live authentically.

I am an award-winning author of two books on the subject of empowerment and compassion – one for adults, Compassion Magic and a picture book for children ages 2 to 10 called Superhero Sam Saves His Family. It is a raciallly diverse and gender neutral story. I have a program for children available on Etsy at my Compassion Magic shop.

I hope you will join me as we all learn together how to become empowered to live authentically.
