Hello everyone, I recently joined this community and thought to share a bit of my journey so far. About four months ago, I stepped into e-commerce as a complete novice. As a stay-at-home mom trying to make ends meet and earn some extra income on the side, I had no idea how much there was to learn. Fast-forward to today, I’m beginning to understand the basics of how consistency, testing, and patience all come together. And now I’m seeing consistent sales and profit on my Shopify store. It hasn’t been easy, but every step has been worth it. One thing I’ve realized is: success in e-commerce isn’t overnight, it’s about building the right habits and systems. I’d love to hear from you: - What was the hardest part of your first few months in business? - If you could go back, what’s one thing you’d do differently when starting out? Looking forward to learning from your experiences too!

We want to get to know you! -Who are you? -Where are you from and where are you now? -Self- employed or working for a company? -How long have you been in the massage and bodywork field? -In 3 sentences or less explain what part of the industry you are in and what you do. -What are you looking to get out of this community? This is mostly just a template to get your thought hamsters running. Share what you want to and leave out what you don't. Everyone person here is unique and has a unique set of skills. We want to get to know you better and we appreciate you being here!

Okay so I'm not going to hide behind a curtain or anything. I'm a massage therapist not a content creater but I started the group to have a place where massage therapists can get together, collaborate, share knowledge and build eachother up. But.... I think it would also be good to have some content as well. Maybe have some general courses in the classroom. I've been trying to come up with a structure for some stuff but man is it HARD! So I figured I'd ask you all since 50+ brains are better than one brain with divided attention. 🫠 I listed a few VERY GENERAL things below which you can vote on, but also feel free to leave comments below on specific things you are interested in knowing, learning. And @Lakisha Streater I like your comment on attachment sites so we may even do a few videos on that. 👏

When I started my massage/bodywork journey, I thought the right certification or expensive workshop would give me everything I needed. I spent over $2,000 chasing “fast-track” programs that promised quick results. 💸 Instead, I was left overwhelmed, second-guessing myself, and honestly wondering if I would ever feel confident with clients. But instead of walking away, I doubled down on the basics, practicing daily, learning from peers, and focusing on the actual craft of bodywork. Slowly, my skills grew, my confidence deepened, and clients began to trust me in ways money alone could never buy. Now, bodywork isn’t just my profession, it’s become a sustainable, fulfilling path that supports me and allows me to support others fully. 🌿 Curious, has anyone else here invested heavily in trainings, only to realize the real mastery came from showing up and doing the work?

Hi everyone! 👋My name is Bee. I’ve been in the massage therapy field for about 3 years, and I truly love helping clients feel better through bodywork. My strengths are in Thai Combination Massage and Deep Tissue, where I focus on tailoring each session to what the client’s body really needs. I’m excited to be part of this community, to learn from all of you, and to share my own experiences along the way. It’s so nice to meet you all! 🙏✨
