Are the people in your life lighting you up — or wearing you down? In this solo episode, I get real about how the energy and mindset of those around us shape our massage practices (and our lives). Inspired by the quote “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with,”- Jim Rohn 
​
I’m sharing personal reflections, career shifts, and lessons from building a community of radical massage therapists who actually get it.

If you’ve ever felt like the odd one out at your clinic or wanted to be more intentional with your inner circle, this episode is your permission slip to choose your people wisely — and become someone else's person, too.

ABOUT
​Hey, I’m Krista! A Registered Massage Therapist since 2006, clinic owner, coach, podcast host, and your go-to guide for building a sustainable massage practice. If you’re looking for freedom, flexibility, financial success, and fun in your career—you're in the right place!

I started The Radical Massage Therapist because I saw too many talented massage therapists burning out, undercharging, and struggling to make this career sustainable. I’ve been there—I’ve had the doubts, faced the challenges, and wondered if I needed a total career change. But through mindset shifts, smart business strategies, and community support, I built a practice that works for me, not the other way around. And I want to help you do the same.

My Experience & Mission
  • 18+ years as an RMT in Ottawa, Ontario
  • Clinic owner since 2022, managing a team of incredible therapists
  • Host of The Radical Massage Therapist Podcast, where I bring real talk and real solutions to our industry
  • Coach & Mentor, helping massage therapists create sustainable practices that allow them to thrive
  • Passionate Advocate for self-care, smart business strategies, and the belief that massage therapists deserve to make great money doing what they love
​
What I Believe
​✔ Massage therapists are healthcare professionals, and we should be treated (and paid) as such
✔ You can build a practice that works for your lifestyle—without overworking, undercharging, or feeling stuck
✔ Boundaries and business skills are just as important as hands-on techniques
✔ Community over competition—there are more than enough clients for all of us
