Sara was brought to our couch by Joyce, a former guest, RMT, and friend who thought that we would love to hear Sara’s amazing story. Sara is not a RMT but is involved in the health and wellness realm through her healing yoga retreats that she runs to facilitate people on their healing journey. Sara is a somatic healing and neuroscience specialist who has a cool backstory that starts with her joining the military at a very young age, meeting her partner, going into academics and neuroscience, starting a family, and ultimately tying it all together through yoga.

Liane is the organizer of the Massage Championships here in Canada and wanted to speak to Canadian therapists and educate them on what this event is truly about. For Liane who is a passionate therapist and always looking to be better, it’s about the experience of meeting and learning from therapists from all over the world, and building community and networking with other passionate professionals. This year she is hosting the Massage Therapy Summit in Laval, Quebec, that will include the Championships, a large tradeshow, and lectures for RMTs. We were joined briefly by Luisa Vargas, the 2023 World Champion to speak about her experiences and why we need to forget the word championships and focus on what matters.

Agyness is a client and a hair stylist that is on the verge of taking the leap to open her own salon. She asked us for some advice on where to get started in this new journey as an entrepreneur and since we have brainstormed with many Massage Therapists about going out on their own and clinic ownership, we invited her to the couch! Listen to a discussion about opening up a business and what needs to happen to get the ball rolling.

Sandy is back for a third time because once again his career has taken a shift and he wanted to come talk about it. When he was first on the couch we talked about his unique style of treating, he returned to talk about a new way of assessing which levelled up his practice working primarily with golfers, and this time he’s back and working in education and giving back to the profession he’s been a part of for almost 3 decades. We talked about massage curriculum, techniques, debates about the evidence behind massage therapy education, how to be a better public speaker and teacher, and preparing students to be great clinicians. Check out an episode with a whole lotta shop talk!
