Entrepreneurship shouldn’t = self abandonment… Ever feel like you are just rushing around doing stuff - OR - you are staring blankly at your to do list trapped by overwhelm?

Sometimes we confuse business leadership with hyper-productivity. Never off, always moving to goal post, barely noticing when we’ve hit a milestone…

That’s not sustainable.

Growing a business is an investment in yourself, your future, and your freedom. To do that well, you have to be aligned on all levels. You must commit to your own well being and belong fully to your own joy & peace.

It’s not easy for most of us. And if it feels that way for you…you are not alone🤗 taking the leap to start your own business is HUGE, even 1 step in that direction should be celebrated. Even if you don’t make it all the way, you should be proud of yourself ❤️

I’m celebrating you and my guess is that there are many people who are inspired by your bravery.

Ever feel like clients leave your table saying:
 “Thanks… bye forever!” 🙃

Here’s the truth: retention isn’t built with discounts or fancy marketing, it’s built with reminders.
 One simple follow-up like, “How’s your shoulder today?” shows you care and keeps them coming back.

✨ Little texts = big loyalty. And if you don’t want to spend your nights typing follow-ups, Practice Promotor can write + send them for you while you’re still in session.

👉 Do you send follow-up texts right now, or nah?

“Have Your Ai call my Ai” - are you ready for it? I got an email from today about my AI pro plan including a new feature: search calling on your behalf to find pricing or book appointments (not entirely new but still…)

It got me thinking. AI reception is also on the rise and I imagine someday many businesses will be using ai in that capacity. Which leads me to 🥁🥁🥁 ai talking to ai to do all the things we can’t or don’t want to. Weird!!! Crazy!! Scary!!! Cool?!?!

What do you think? Give me a 🫣 if it’s a no for you and a 🤗 if you can’t wait for it.

Most massage therapists I meet are undercharging, not because they don’t care about their worth, but because they’re guessing.

Guessing what clients can afford. Guessing what’s “normal” in their area. Guessing what they need to live well and keep their business running.

The truth is: you can’t build a sustainable practice on guesswork. You deserve clarity, confidence, and numbers that support your life and your work.
And here’s the part many therapists forget: pricing isn’t really about money in your client’s eyes, it’s about the value you communicate.
 For example, if you say “$100 for a massage” it may sound like a cost. But if you say “$100 to release the shoulder pain that’s been limiting you for months and finally get a full night’s sleep,” that same $100 becomes an investment in their quality of life.

That’s why I created the Aligned Pricing Tool, it does the math for you, based on your situation, so you can stop second-guessing and finally set rates that feel aligned.

Balance, for me, means choosing presence over pressure.

It’s remembering that I don’t have to earn rest, that slowing down often makes me more creative and more effective, not less.

In a world that constantly pushes us to hustle harder, balance looks like creating space to breathe, move, connect, and just be. It’s reminding myself that success isn’t measured by how busy I am, but by how aligned I feel.

Unwinding that old conditioning takes practice, noticing the voice that says “do more” and gently asking, “but what if I don’t?” Each time I choose balance, it gets a little easier.

✨ This week, I’m actively working toward choosing balance over burnout.

What does balance look like for you right now?

Most wellness providers overthink SEO. But here’s the truth: you don’t need to do everything at once.

✨ Try these 3 simple steps this week:

1. Add your city + service to your homepage headline
2. Write a short blog post answering one client question
3. Make sure your contact info matches everywhere

These small steps compound into BIG visibility, so clients searching locally actually find you.

How much is your peace worth?

We live in a world that constantly asks for more…more of your time, more of your energy, more of your heart. And if you’re not careful, all that “more” can quietly chip away at your peace until you don’t even recognize yourself anymore.

Here’s the truth: peace isn’t a luxury. It’s not something you “earn” once everything else is done. Peace is survival. It’s what allows you to think clearly, show up for the people you love, and keep moving toward the life you actually want.

The hard part? No one else can protect your peace for you. That boundary, that choice, it’s yours alone.

So if you’ve been feeling stretched thin, let this be your reminder: you are allowed to say no, to rest, to step back, and to ⭐️honor your own needs⭐️ without guilt.

Protecting your peace is protecting your future, your freedom, and your longevity.

That’s just me.

No amount of hardships or frustrations will change that. Period.  Because at the end of the day, how we show up for people matters more than anything. 💜

✨ A little reminder for the version of me that’s still building, still questioning, still dreaming…

The late nights, the doubts, the tiny steps, they all add up. You don’t have to take a giant leap to be successful, just keep choosing heart over hustle and alignment over overwhelm.

Future you will be so grateful you kept going 💌

👉 Drop a ❤️ if you needed this reminder too.
