An invitation to you...
I was talking to an amazing Massage Therapist recently. She has been practicing for nearly 15 years and has a schedule that is booked solid with amazing clients. By industry standards, she is definitely ‘successful.’
And that’s when she said it: “I feel stuck. I’ve been doing the same thing, day in and day out for years with my clients. And while I love every single one of them, it’s starting to wear on me.”
This was the kicker…“You know the worst part — even though I know I’m amazing at what I do, I still feel like I have to justify myself and my rates to compete with new therapists and the franchises. I’ve done everything I can to be successful and I feel like I’ve ‘made it.’ But inside, I KNOW there is a better way and I just can’t seem to figure it out for myself.”
Can you relate? I know I can — that is exactly where I was just a few years back. Maxed out. On the brink of burn out. And starting to wonder… how I could continue to do the work I love without working myself to the ground?
.............................................................................................................. I knew there was a better way to work, but I had to charter a new path to find it. I made a commitment to myself that I would figure out how to work smarter, not harder (which, as a Massage Therapist, was no small feat!).
I consciously structured my business to honor me so that I could bring my BEST self into my work.
The results were clear:
— Within 6 months, I doubled my income and had my first 6-figure year. — I CUT BACK the number of clients I worked on (from 25 per week to 12 per week). — My clients took empowered action between appointments (i.e. all the advice I had been giving them for years, they finally followed through) and were getting amazing results. — I felt a deep sense of purpose and fulfillment in my work that had been missing for years. I believe it is time for a *NEW ERA* of bodyworkers.
My mission is to support hands-on and heart-centered practitioners to honor themselves, serve their clients and build their businesses in a healthy way. ~Laura Join us...

Have you ever had a time in your life when you were racking your brain trying to figure something out?
I remember one time in particular when I was learning how to make a landing page for my company. I had been at it for TWO WEEKS (technology was not easy for me back then), trying to figure out the fonts, logos, headers, footers and how to include images.
I had set a goal for myself to get this landing page completed, and out of sheer determination, I had figured out almost everything. There was ONE MORE THING TO COMPLETE.
The link.
The all elusive link that would allow me to share my amazing free resource that I had created
......................................................................................................................... for people. I didn’t even know what the link was supposed to look like. I didn’t even know how to create it. I was soooo close to finishing, and I couldn’t figure it out.
I’m no quitter, but I just couldn’t do it.
I wanted to cry, but I didn’t have any tears left.
I would have ripped my hair out, but it was way too knotted and matted to the top of my head for me to even grab ahold of. I hadn’t showered in at least two days. It might have been longer. I didn’t really know because I had been sitting at my computer chair for two weeks straight, 12 hours at a stretch.
I just couldn’t do it anymore.
I pushed myself back from my desk and I said, “I’m going to take a shower.”
What I knew from my years as a BodyMind coach was that my body was talking. My body knew, not my brain, that I needed to let the hot water wash over my scalp, my hair, my body, and just wash away all the fucking frustration and tears.
After about five minutes of letting the hot water pour over my head, my hair, and my shoulders, I started to massage the shampoo into my scalp when all of a sudden, I had this vision of the link and what it looked like.
