November 01 Be So Unbothered, with guest Christine
Christine is a massage therapist and energy worker who is coming in strong with a message to everyone. Be so unbothered about other people’s opinions of yourselves so you can show up authentically and be fully yourself in every situation. Working in healthcare can make us feel like we have a certain way we must present ourselves to the world. It’s part of why Christine hasn’t always talked about the energy side of her work even though it’s part of who she is and makes her happy to offer this to her clients. We discussed cancel culture, having different opinions, and some tips from Christine on how we can feel more comfortable just being us.

October 24 Incorporating Lymphatic Drainage Into Treatment, with guest Jennifer
Therapists sometimes don’t fully understand manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) likely because what we learned in school only scratches the surface of the lymphatic system. Jennifer is a newer RMT from the yoga world who went straight into lymphatics and became a certified lymphatic therapist right after graduation. She has been a presenter at LymphyCon, the Canadian Massage Conference, and now she’s here to do some myth busting and really help us to understand what lymphatic therapy can do.

September 05 Connecting Therapists Globally
In this episode, the entire Canadian Massage Conference organizing committee hung out to discuss the importance of therapists networking and going to industry events. As Massage Therapy Media, we have had the privilege to attend conferences such as LymphyCon, CMMOTAs annual conference, AMTA’s National convention, World Massage Festival, the Massage Summit and Championships, FSMTA’s convention and others! We have been to events in 6 provinces and have met hundreds of therapists seeking to connect with others and level up their practice. These conferences are THE BEST way to really keep up with what’s happening in massage therapy as well as to meet some of the most insightful educators, authors, and practitioners that you may otherwise not have met. You may even walk away with a life long friend. Listen to what you could be missing out on and then come out to join the fun!
