• For Bodyworkers Who Are Tired of Feeling Stuck

Procrastination, burnout, and underpricing are not always discipline problems. Sometimes your body is simply under too much stress.

You are working long hours with your hands.

You are trying to be the therapist, marketer, scheduler,

bookkeeper, and business owner.

And even when you are busy, the money may still not feel worth the effort.

I’m Monique, your MindBody Business Mentor.

I help bodyworkers understand how stress affects the way

they think, work, and make decisions —

then build a business that is profitable, sustainable,

and does not require them to keep working more hours.

What Stress Is Costing Your Business

Most business advice tells you to do more. Post more. Work harder. Raise your prices. Push through. But when you are already stressed and overwhelmed, more pressure usually does not help. You may procrastinate, avoid decisions, undercharge, overwork, or keep doing things that are not actually helping your business grow. This is not always a lack of discipline. Sometimes it is simply the way your mind and body respond when you have been under too much stress for too long.

How Stress Shows Up in Business

1. Fight — pushing harder, controlling everything, overworking, getting frustrated.

2. Flight — constantly changing plans, chasing the next idea, taking another course, staying busy without finishing.

3. Freeze — procrastinating, avoiding marketing, second-guessing decisions, doing nothing because everything feels like too much.

You cannot fix bad pricing by only working on yourself. And you cannot build a strong business by pushing harder when you are already exhausted. A sustainable business needs both: the way you handle stress and a business model that actually works.

You Need Both

1. How You Handle Stress

You can know exactly what to do in business and still struggle to do it. Stress can show up as procrastination, overwhelm, underpricing, second-guessing yourself, or avoiding decisions. We help you recognize those patterns so you can think more clearly, make better decisions, and follow through.

2. A Business That Actually Works

Changing how you handle stress will not fix bad pricing, unclear offers, inconsistent marketing, or poor systems. You also need a business that is set up to make money and support the life you want. We work on both so your business can grow without requiring you to work more hours.

28 Years in Wellness. Multi-Six-Figure Practice. Mind-Body Breakthrough.

From owning my first salon in the 90s and managing 100 employees as a corporate trainer to building a multiple six-figure solo practice, I spent decades in the wellness industry. But behind the scenes, I was living in chronic pain, burnout, and constant physical exhaustion.

Everything shifted when I cracked the code on the mind-body connection. I realized that business stalls, boundary struggles, and physical fatigue aren't personal failures—they are biological symptoms of a dysregulated nervous system.

Today, I teach bodyworkers how to regulate their nervous systems, step out of fight-or-flight, and build high-ticket, sustainable practices without destroying their bodies.

  • Mind-Body Expertise: Understanding how stress, patterns, and the body work together — and how to apply that in bodywork and everyday life.

  • Business Systems That Support You: Simple tools, clear client processes, and consistent marketing systems that help your business run more smoothly without everything depending on you.

  • Changing the Patterns That Keep You Stuck: Helping practitioners recognize and change patterns like procrastination, underpricing, overworking, and burnout.

  • Emily Gerloff

    “The Body Worker Blueprint has been my anchor, sustaining my momentum and holding me gently accountable to show up for myself so I can truly show up for others. My bank account is fuller than it’s ever been, and my heart overflows with joy after every session. My passion for this work has been reignited like never before—thank you, Monique, from the whole of my heart.”

  • Jacqueline Bodyworker Blueprint

    “Within my first month of working with Monique, I hit my goal — my first $10,000 month in over thirty years of business! I’ve worked with several coaches, but this experience was different. Monique’s system made it simple and achievable.”

  • Devaney Bellard

    “Each client that has received the Somatics has been blown away by how good they feel. Going into that deep meditative state. Their muscles just melt so easily. I absolutely love seeing all the ways their body unwinds itself as it relaxes deeper. It is very rewarding for me to see and feel the changes. I can't get my hands on enough people because I enjoy it that much!”

  • Emily Gerloff, Somatic CE

    “Working with Monique for mind-body somatic massage completely transformed my entire approach to massage therapy. After 15 years in the field, I thought addressing deep issues meant relying on my own physical strength. Monique gave me the language and tools to weave that wisdom directly into my practice—helping clients finally relax, release, and heal on a profound level.”

  • Marcelina Veradre

    “Working with Monique through the Blueprint has truly been a game changer for my holistic business! After 13 years as a solopreneur, I finally found the guidance and structure I needed to refine my operations and gain clear direction toward my goals.

    Monique’s program offered the perfect blend of expertise, accountability, and community support. I initially wanted one-on-one coaching, but the group setting turned out to be an unexpected gift—learning alongside other practitioners brought so much value and inspiration.

    Each session left me with new insights and pure GOLD! I’m so grateful to Monique for creating such a supportive and transformative experience.”

  • Danielle Booher

    “Before I signed up for the Bodyworker Blueprint, I wasn’t sure where the money would come from—but I’m so glad I took the leap. Monique helped me price my packages down to the cent, and before this program, I’d never sold one. She gave us a script, and that same day I sold a package! She works with you in real time, and it truly works when you implement it. I’m so grateful I invested in myself—I’d do it again and again.”

  • Christina Cormier

    “That somatic training in Spokane was truly life-changing for me, both personally and professionally. It deepened my understanding of the nervous system and how to help clients release long-held tension through safety, presence, and gentle touch. I left with a clearer sense of how to hold space for real healing and it’s completely changed the way I show up in my work.”
