Today I am bringing in Flo Vazquez, a fellow teacher, massage therapists, and huge proponent of self-care.

This week I talk with Heather Schlachter, a long time massage therapist and business owner. We chat about what it means to grow a business with many people working for you, and in the end why she would choose to let it go.
