Sam Lamott is an artist, writer, and host of the How To Human podcast, which explores how to acquire the psychological skills needed to thrive as an adult. How To Human was featured on Itunes New and Noteworthy as well as Apple’s top 200 podcasts in both Health and Self Help.

Sam is also owner of Square 1 Studio in San Anselmo California and founder of Hello Humans, a platform for storytellers to share their trials and capture the truth of what it means to be human. He is also co-author of the New York Times bestseller, Some Assembly Required.

Sam describes himself as a single dad, college drop-out, and ex-meth head, who, at the age of twenty two, came out of a ten-year bender with severe clinical depression, a two-year-old child, and zero life skills.

He knows that life is more than what we show the world on social media, that it’s often much messier, but that the lessons learned from those messes are as valuable as anything on this adventure and creation of being human.

Additionally, in the time we at Cutting For Sign have known and and collaborated with Sam, he has proven to be dogged in his commitment to both self betterment and the projects that have captured him. He's become a friend, someone we can call for personal or professional support, and a fierce advocate for the transformation of the primordial energies we find ourselves steeped within, into the woven gold we call story.
