About Dr. Samuel A. Martinez

When you work with Dr. Samuel A. Martínez, you’re not just getting a coach — you’re partnering with a world-seasoned executive leader who has spent 33 years at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guiding national and international teams, managing multimillion-dollar programs, and leading crisis-response operations across the U.S., Haiti, and the Dominican Republic.

You get someone who has walked into chaos, redesigned systems, restored order, and built leadership capacity at every level — from government ministries to local communities. And now, you get that experience focused entirely on your growth, your mindset, and your leadership journey.

As Founder & CEO of Yes2Hope, Dr. Martínez blends executive science, behavioral psychology, NLP, emotional intelligence, and practical leadership experience to help you break patterns, dismantle limiting beliefs, and design a future that reflects your true potential. His approach is uncompromisingly real: grounded in evidence, shaped by decades of cross-cultural leadership, and infused with the belief that hope is not naïve — it is a disciplined strategy for transformation.

He has built national teams, trained leaders in more than 49 countries, partnered with global organizations, and developed performance frameworks that strengthened entire public-health systems. But what sets him apart is his ability to translate complex science into clear, actionable coaching, delivered with compassion, humor, and laser-focused honesty.

When you join his webinars or VIP coaching, you access:

  • A leadership strategist with deep expertise in organizational performance, emotional resilience, and executive behavior.

  • An NLP-trained coach who understands how to rewire patterns so you can lead with confidence, clarity, and purpose.

  • A mentor who has guided hundreds of professionals toward breakthrough careers and unshakeable self-belief.

  • A transformational voice who empowers you to reclaim your agency and design a life with intention, courage, and vision.

If you’re ready to level up your leadership, rewrite your internal narrative, and build success with science-backed strategies — you’re in the right place.

Dr. Martínez will challenge you, support you, and equip you with tools that upgrade your life far beyond the coaching room.
