#69 Your Schedule is Making You Burn Out: The Hidden Reason Massage Therapists Accept Draining Clients
Episode notes
Are your "yes" responses coming from abundance or fear? The answer might surprise you.
As massage therapists, we often take clients from a place of scarcity - worrying about empty slots, lost income, or disappointing people. But what if this very pattern is creating the scarcity we fear? In Part 2 of our series on Why You Feel Drained After Treating Clients (and How to Fix It), we dive deep into the hidden patterns driving our scheduling decisions and discover a powerful tool for making aligned choices.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- Why saying yes from fear actually creates more scarcity in your practice
- A simple but powerful body-based technique for making aligned decisions
- How to transform your practice by trusting your body's wisdom about client alignment
Listen now to learn the Body Compass Practice - a game-changing tool that helps you identify when you're making decisions from fear versus alignment. Plus, access our free guided meditation in the show notes to master this technique.
