Happy Monday y'all! I thought I'd bring back Motivational Monday for one special week!
📢 Long post alert!! But I figure I'm due for an update after ghosting you all for a month 😂
I've been pretty quiet on social media lately partly because I needed a break from socials, but largely because I've been working hard behind the scenes on something I've dreamt of doing for years - and this weekend it officially became a reality!
If you follow me, I'm sure you've figured out by now how passionate I am about supporting families as they journey through pregnancy, birth and new parenthood. A big part of that is using massage to help my clients with their ever changing pregnant bodies, so they can feel more comfortable and balanced during their pregnancy and also to help prepare their body for birth.
Within the massage therapy community I've heard (and known) for years that there is a lack of prenatal education in our field and often times therapists feel like they are missing the techniques to help their pregnant clients fully. So I thought, I could do that! I could teach other therapists how to do what I do!
Fast forward about 2 years - and a whole lot of hard work, self doubt (major imposter syndrome moments!), roadblocks, mini successes later - this weekend I had the privilege of teaching these 10 incredible therapists everything I know about treating pregnant clients with my first ever Treatment of the Pregnant Pelvis workshop!
I'm incredibly proud of them for investing in an area of massage that's largely overlooked - so that they can make a real difference in their pregnant client's lives.
And I'm proud of myself. What's that saying?
"You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face."
~ Eleanor Roosevelt
I'm so very grateful to my friends, family and colleagues that have supported, encouraged and taught me - I definitely could not have done it without you all ❤️
As always - it's takes a village!
I hope this post helps motivate you to push your limits, do the thing that drives you and scares you at the same time - and see how amazing it feels to watch your dreams become your reality
