Why live in pain when there is another way?
I've spent the last 20 years studying pain, working with pain and helping people get out of pain as fast as possible.
When I first started in the coaching industry, I was told that pain doesn't sell, so I stopped focusing on what I love and started focusing on what I thought would sell.
What a HUGE MISTAKE that was.
I struggled, couldn't find my footing. Went from failure to failure feeling unsupported by the Universe and unsure of what I was supposed to be doing.
When I sat down and asked myself, "What do I love?", I knew exactly what to do.
I love helping people out of pain.
Any pain.
Physical pain, emotional pain, mental pain and spiritual pain. I love it all. I love that I can sit with people in their darkest moments, in person, and love them.
To show them the light of who they are without the pain and give them the perfect treatment plan to get them back to living.
As a massage therapist, I have always been a coach. It was never separate for me.
Ask any massage therapist, we may be the only person someone who just lost their job talks to. We may be the only person a teenager talks to about the stress of school and the future and the crippling fear of failure they don't tell anyone else about.
We help people when their backs go out, they lose their identity because of a concussion, they experience the unbearable grief of losing someone they love.
We give them stretches, exercises, remind them to drink water, take care of themselves, breathe, sleep, manage their stress, ask for help. We have always been Wellness Coaches and Inspirational Leaders in the fight against suffering.
We just love touching people while we're doing it. Because touch heals. Connection, love, vulnerability, presence and being able to sit with someone who isn't going to judge us is how we heal.
If you haven't hugged your Wellness Coach (aka Massage Therapist), go give them a huge thank you for all they do. They are what the world needs more than ever right now and they fight a hard battle to do what they are called to do. They are warriors guiding people to empowerment.
If you are a massage therapist and you don't know how much the world needs you, remember that you are more valuable than you have been told.
That brings me to our new mission, to support Unsung Heroes who do the soul led work of helping others and often go unseen.
We are launching our November Promotion a day early. If you know a massage therapist who is in pain, can't work or just needs some nurturing care, tag them in this post and tell us why they are amazing. One lucky winner will receive a FREE treatment at Soma Massage.
The drawing will take place on Friday, 11/8/2024.
We can't wait to take care of you!
