We call these choices “ridiculous” because none of this is what massage therapists are usually told to do.
Most of us are taught the only way to make more is to add more sessions, work longer hours, or push our bodies harder.
At the time, this felt wildly outside what we were trained for, but it is the reason we now take clients only 15 days per month, our practice grosses around 14k, we typically bring in around 10k online, and the other half of the month is for rest, family, travel, and work that is not tied to our physical capacity.
Here are the “ridiculous” things
💸 We decided early on that our income could not be tied only to our hands if we wanted longevity in this career, so we started building online income while still seeing clients.
💸 We became obsessed with learning content marketing and online business even when it felt unrelated to massage, spending nights, nap times, and days off studying and creating.
💸 We showed up online consistently even when engagement was low and it felt pointless, because consistency comes before momentum.
💸 We spent months building an audience before expecting sales and created digital products before anyone bought anything.
💸 We reinvested in education, software, mentors, ads, and systems before we had proof it would work.
💸 We worked on funnels, emails, launches, and products whenever we could fit it in while still maintaining our practice so we did not have to gamble our financial stability.
💸 We shifted from trading time for money to building
assets that could earn while we rested.
💸 We kept going even when people were confused about what we were doing and trusted the long game.
The truth is this work feels ridiculous until it works.
Then it becomes freedom.
That is exactly why we separated the Online Income Blueprint from the Bodywork Business Blueprint.
Building a practice and building online income are two completely different paths, and this is the roadmap we wish we had when we started.
