At Rebel Wellness, we do massage differently. Trauma massage isn’t just about working on pain points—it’s about creating a safe space where your body can truly let go. It's about grounding, understanding, and healing—not forcing, but listening to your body's story. Curious about how this could make a difference for you? Let's start this journey together. 🌿✨

Refocusing the Lens: Lessons from the Drake Business Accelerator

Stepping into the Drake University Business Accelerator was not just about growing my business. It has been about growing me.

Becoming the student again reminded me how powerful it is to stay curious. Sitting beside other dreamers and builders, I realized that growth happens when you drop the ego and stay open to learning.

I won’t lie, fear still shows up. The kind that asks, “What if you are not ready?” But fear often arrives right before expansion. Growth is not supposed to feel comfortable, it is meant to stretch and sharpen you.

Rebel Wellness has shifted in ways I never imagined. My mindset has grown. I am not just running a massage studio, I am building a movement, a space where healing is real, raw, and unapologetic.

This program reminded me that you get out what you put in. Every question, every late night brainstorm, every uncomfortable truth, it all fuels the next step. Success doesn’t come from dreaming. It comes from doing.

Rebel Wellness is dreaming bigger now. The vision is expanding beyond massage tables and into community, empowerment, and deeper healing.

Who knows what comes next?
I don’t have all the answers, but I am deeply grateful—for the mentors, teachers, the zooms, the classmates, the lessons, and every person who believes in this vision. And for you. Thank you for spending time at the table with me.

Here’s to growth, courage, and the beautiful unknown.

Gratitude.
Thank you to everyone who came tonight. Together we raised $120 and filled a full grocery bag for the local food bank. 💜

That might not seem like much, but here’s what it really means:
✨ $120 helps provide over an estimated 480 meals for families in our community.
✨ One grocery bag can help stock shelves that empty fast when families are struggling to make ends meet.
✨ Every can, every dollar, every person who shows up matters, especially now, when more local families (not just those on SNAP) are feeling the squeeze.

Your presence and generosity tonight ripple far beyond this room. You didn’t just show up for sound and rest, you showed up for community.

From my heart, thank you for being part of the sacred rebellion of giving back. 💜

P.S. how does $120 provide estimated 480 meals?

✅ Why the multiple-meals figure works

The marker comes from the fact that many food banks don’t purchase all of their food at full retail cost. They benefit from:

large donations of food (surplus, near-expiration, or bulk purchases)

volunteer labour and strong community partnerships

economies of scale (buying wholesale).

For example: the network Feeding America reports that cash donations are matched with donated food and logistic support, enabling a “$1 to X meals” ratio.
In one case, The Idaho Foodbank shows a cost of $0.35 to $0.50 per meal thanks to those efficiencies."

Rebel Wellness will be donating monies recieved from the group sound baths and cash tips to the local food banks, starting tonight through Dec 31, 2025. Anything and everything helps. Group SoundBath tonight at 6pm. Arrive 15 min early to get settled in.

Because of the ongoing federal shutdown, many families in Iowa are facing increased food insecurity without access to their SNAP monthly benefits. The state of Iowa will use existing state funds to match all cash donations to Iowa’s six regional food banks up to one million dollars beginning November 1. The food banks collectively serve 1,500 local partner agencies, including food pantries across all 99 counties.
