Woman with a playful smile waves in a dim restaurant, wearing a black top and bracelets. Text reads: "Samantha Jones: Wild woman who owns it!"

Ah, Samantha Jones. If there’s one character who embodies unapologetic confidence, sexual freedom & true personal empowerment, it’s her. When you think of Sex and the City, you probably think of her boldness, her no-nonsense attitude and her fearless approach to life. Samantha is the Wild Woman we all need to embrace, even if her unapologetic approach to sex and life can sometimes make us uncomfortable. But isn’t that exactly what makes her such a powerful, magnetic force? She lives life on her own terms & that’s something every woman can learn from.


Samantha doesn’t fit into the neat little box society wants to put women in. She doesn’t apologize for her desires and she doesn’t let anyone tell her what is or isn’t acceptable. In fact, she turns society’s expectations upside down and does whatever she wants. Samantha is a reminder that we, too, have the right to define our own lives and desires, and no one, no matter how close or distant, should make us feel less than for doing so.


The Power of Sexual Freedom


Let’s be honest, Samantha has one of the most liberating attitudes toward sex that we see in TV or film. She’s not just about casual hookups (though she enjoys those too), she’s about owning her body, her desires & her pleasure. Samantha teaches us that sex is not something to be ashamed of, nor is it something to be hidden or confined to certain norms. For her, it’s about freedom and expression, a celebration of the self.


We’ve all heard the phrase "sex-positive," but Samantha’s approach takes it to another level. She doesn’t just embrace her sexuality, she owns it with fierce pride. In a world where women are often shamed for their sexual appetites, Samantha challenges that stigma head-on. And let's not forget her self-awareness: she knows what she wants, and she is never afraid to ask for it.


Take, for example, her journey with Richard, the one man who almost made her fall in love. Despite her fears and the emotional risks involved, Samantha never loses herself in the relationship. She still maintains control over her own identity, her desires and her boundaries. She doesn’t apologize for her choices, she owns them, fully and completely. Isn’t that the true power of a Wild Woman?


Unapologetically Independent


Another standout trait of Samantha is her independence. Unlike some of the other women in Sex and the City, Samantha isn’t looking for someone to complete her. She’s already whole on her own. She thrives in her career, her friendships and in the way she lives her life. The idea that we need to be “saved” or “completed” by another person is something Samantha would laugh at. She reminds us that we, as women, are whole just as we are & we should never settle for someone who doesn’t see our worth.


Her confidence isn’t about arrogance, it’s about authenticity. Samantha knows exactly who she is and she lets that shine in every aspect of her life. She’s a woman who knows her worth, refuses to dim her light and chooses to surround herself with people who support her bold, unapologetic self. Isn’t that the essence of self-love and power?


The Fearless Wild Woman


At her core, Samantha is the embodiment of the Wild Woman spirit. She follows her desires with courage, doesn’t let societal pressures dictate her actions & refuses to apologize for any part of who she is. Even when faced with illness and the possibility of losing her power, she shows us the strength and resilience of the Wild Woman energy. Samantha teaches us that even when life challenges us, we can still rise, embrace our wildness and stay true to ourselves.


What Samantha Teaches Us


Samantha’s character teaches us that we can be confident, bold and powerful in all aspects of our lives, whether it’s in our careers, our relationships, or in how we experience our own sensuality. She reminds us that we don’t need to conform to anyone’s standards but our own. We should embrace our sexuality without shame, be fearless in our independence, and always honour ourselves, no matter what.


Samantha’s life is a beautiful example of a woman who has mastered the art of self-love, unapologetic freedom & living life on her own terms. She’s not about playing it safe or staying within the lines. She’s about blazing her own trail and in doing so, she creates a life that’s truly hers.


Answer the Call


So, what can we learn from Samantha? How can we start to embody her confidence and unapologetic power in our own lives? Maybe it’s about letting go of societal expectations around our sexuality. Maybe it’s about stepping into our independence, embracing our desires & owning who we are, flaws and all.


So I invite you to ask yourself:


What would Samantha do? How can you bring her fierce, unapologetic energy into your own life? Embrace your wildness, own your desires & live unapologetically. Your power is yours to claim, just as Samantha has done!
