🌟 What an amazing day at Concordia Plan Services! 🌟 (https://www.concordiaplans.org/)

Today I had the joy of providing on-site chair massage for the hardworking team at Concordia Plan Services in Kirkwood, where employees are empowered to support the benefits and well-being of ministries connected with The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod .

📍 Concordia Plan Services is a mission-minded organization dedicated to administering employee benefits, retirement plans, wellness resources, and human-resources support for LCMS congregations, schools, and ministries around the country. They care for the people who serve others — and it was an honor to give back today. 🙏✨

From 10:00 AM to 4:50 PM, I helped bring moments of peace, relief, and restoration to their day with chair massage — easing tension, supporting circulation, and giving employees a chance to reset. It was inspiring to see how much appreciation and gratitude filled the room as folks took time for themselves. 💆‍♀️💆‍♂️

✨ Well-deserved quiet moments in the middle of a busy workday matter. ✨

✔ Reduced stress
✔ Increased focus
✔ Boosted morale
✔ Enhanced overall wellness

And that’s exactly what corporate wellness should be about — caring for the people behind the mission.

💛 If your company, office, or team in the St. Louis Greater Area could benefit from a Licensed Massage Therapist for:

🌿 Corporate wellness programs
💆 Employee appreciation events
💺 On-site chair massage sessions
🔥 Private therapeutic massage sessions

…I would love to connect!

Let’s bring more rest, balance, and wellness into your workplace too. 🌈

✨🌿 Grateful for a Powerful Conversation on The Crystal Coach Show 🌿✨

I’m honored to share that I was recently invited as a guest on The Crystal Coach Show: Clarity, Guidance & Practical Wisdom on The Transformation Network — hosted by my friend and fellow St. Louis wellness practitioner, Anahata Roach 💎

You can watch the full interview here:
👉 https://youtu.be/BhKyL00B3BQ?si=V5dvOW3e_gijKNUi

Anahata and I first connected locally at Mystic Valley Metaphysical Supply in Maplewood and later reconnected at First Unitarian Church of St. Louis — two spaces that foster community, curiosity, and conscious dialogue. It’s been beautiful watching our shared paths in wellness intersect again in this way.

In this episode, we explore my journey — from focusing on external appearances to embracing inner validation through contemplative traditions. From Italy 🇮🇹 to New Zealand 🇳🇿 to the United States 🇺🇸, each chapter has shaped the philosophy behind Yogaphora: strength from within, clarity through discipline, and sustainable embodiment.

But I especially want to give a heartfelt shout-out to Anahata Roach, The Crystal Coach

Anahata Roach, also known as The Crystal Coach, is a teacher, healer, and intuitive energy coach who works with the Mineral Kingdom for self-care and transformation. After experiencing burnout in the corporate world, her awakening through energy therapy led her to study modalities such as Reiki, Integrated Energy Therapy, Sekhem-Seichim-Reiki, and crystal resonance work.

She trained extensively in mineralogy, anatomy/physiology, quantum and Newtonian physics, and Eastern energy medicine, eventually becoming a Crystal Resonance™ Therapist. Her work beautifully bridges grounded knowledge with intuitive practice — reminding us that there is both science and sacred wisdom behind energetic transformation.

Our conversation touches on:
✨ Inner strength vs. external validation
✨ Masculinity and mindfulness
✨ Energy, embodiment, and sovereignty
✨ The discipline of inner work
✨ Reclaiming joy

If you’re curious about transformation, energy work, contemplative practice, or simply enjoy authentic dialogue — I invite you to tune in.

🌞 Another energizing morning with the BNI Central Corridor chapter at the Center of Clayton (7:30–9:00 a.m.). There’s something special about being in a room full of local professionals who genuinely want to see each other succeed.

Today I had the privilege of attending as a substitute for Tommy McKee with Big Bear Roofing — your locally owned and operated neighborhood roofing company serving both residential and commercial projects.

Big Bear Roofing focuses on customer experience and provides a one-source solution for most exterior needs. In addition to roofing, they assist property owners with siding, gutters, fascia, and custom copper work.

And as they proudly say:
Big Bear Roofing has the strength to… Bear Any Storm!

It was an honor to represent Tom and support the chapter this morning.

A major highlight of the meeting was an excellent and informative presentation by Courtney Wright, MBA, CFP®, Financial Advisor and Associate Vice President with Bowers Wright Financial Group, a financial advisory practice of Ameriprise Financial Services, LLC.

Courtney shared thoughtful insight into helping individuals and families feel confident, connected, and in control of their financial lives. Her approach centers on truly getting to know her clients and providing customized guidance — with ongoing support through life’s expected milestones and unexpected transitions.
