Samantha Skyring
In today’s episode of Through the Fog, I sit down with the remarkable Samantha Skyring, aka The Salt Queen and founder of Oryx Desert Salt and an unstoppable force of nature.
This isn’t just a story about salt.
It’s a story about how a paper round at 13, a dream on an island, and a vision during a juice fast led to a brand that now sits on shelves across the world, including Whole Foods in the US. It’s also a story about spiritual hunger, lucid dreaming, and what it takes to keep going when everything falls apart.
Samantha shares road that brought her from inner-city Johannesburg to the heart of the Kalahari. We talk about purpose, intention, and what it means to lead with soul.
If you’re a founder trying to make something meaningful in the world, this one’s for you.
Listen in for:
Why real salt matters (and why table salt should be banned)
What building a brand for 15 years really looks like
The connection between lucid dreams, leadership, and legacy.
How to help your team dream again
My best line from the sessions: “We are living oceans”
Find this episode wherever you get your podcasts. And bring your own salt. Preferably Oryx.
