Luck!

Being successful isn’t luck. It’s a choice! You have to choose every single morning and every single night that you are going to bust your butt until the job is done❗️

I choose success.

I will never look at my menagerie of rescue animals and say “sorry guys I spent too much time sleeping in and watching Netflix, now there’s no money for feed.”

You want to know why? Because saying you can’t do it is an excuse to get yourself out of having to work hard.
Get up.
Get dressed.
Throw some confidence in your face and get moving❗️

Your babies deserve it.
Your husband deserves it.


Your family deserves it.
YOU deserve it

Last day for this special. Ends at 11:59 pm Eastern time. Go to Aliceperryman.net and go to pick two or drop me a message on facebook.

Keeping It Real!!!

🤷🏼‍♀️ Not one to sugar coat things and I’ll pretty much tell ya like it is soooo 𝒽ℯ𝓇ℯ 𝓌ℯ ℊℴ.

Your life will not CHANGE until you choose to change it. I get message after message from people desperately needing an extra income and then back out because they are afraid, don’t have experience or don’t have the money.

Let me tell you something.

No one joins this business because they HAVE money, they are unafraid, or with zero doubts. We all are human. But ya know what? If you’re not changing it you’re choosing it and I just can’t understand how people choose to be broke. #letmehelpyou

I was afraid but I was even more afraid of not breaking the cycle!

broke👏is👏no👏joke👏

Make a change or stay where you are. It’s as simple as that. If you are willing to work hard and be coachable we can team up and do some BIG things- but the first step in changing your life is 𝕊𝔸𝕐𝕀ℕ𝔾 𝕐𝔼𝕊!

My journey

I have struggled with weight gain and loss my entire life. I even went so far as to have surgery and I still managed to gain some of that weight back. Now I finally have a system that is working for me. I have lost almost thirty pounds since July. I don’t have any photos from last summer because I felt so self conscious I wouldn’t let anyone take photos. I still have at least another thirty to go but I am proud of my progress. It you want to know more drop me an email at alice@adagiomassage.net.

Covid 19 Update for Massage Professionals

https://www.abmp.com/covid-updates

Can I work? Should I work? 
On March 16, 2020, ABMP issued a statement strongly encouraging all massage and bodywork practitioners to suspend practice, as social distancing is not feasible in massage. Renowned pathology expert Ruth Werner also called for a suspension of massage work. Read the full statements. 

Furthermore, many local municipalities and states have issued stay-at-home or shelter-in-place orders that require massage therapists to suspend work. Read more regarding state updates.

If my state issues a stay-at-home or shelter-in-place order, what happens if I continue to work?
Your liability insurance policy is only valid if you are in compliance with your state’s regulations. If you are no longer authorized to work per regional orders, you are likely not in compliance with your state regulations and therefore your insurance would not be valid.

Can I perform massage if I have a home office?
If your profession has been ordered to suspend, it doesn’t matter where you are working. If you continue to work, this could now be considered an illegal act, in which case the insurance would not be valid. These decisions are the responsibility of local and federal authorities, not ABMP. Check here for state updates. 

Is my job as a massage therapist considered “essential”?
ABMP does not determine whether massage is essential or nonessential; that is a decision made by local and federal authorities. Check here for state updates. 
 
Are virtual sessions included in my liability insurance policy?
Your liability insurance policy is valid with virtual sessions under the following circumstances:

  • The client must be located in the same state that the practitioner is legally allowed to practice in;
  • For new clients, the practitioner must do a full intake form;
  • The practitioner must be able to see the client as they are virtually working with her/him;
  • The sessions are live and not prerecorded;
  • Policy language applies (exclusions, etc.). The practitioner must be within scope of practice.

Does my policy cover me for being out of work (business interruption)?
Your liability insurance policy does not cover business interruption. The “Loss of Earnings” clause in the policy specifically pertains to a member being reimbursed if they are required to take time away from their practice because of a lawsuit against them that is covered under the policy.

Can I apply for unemployment benefits or financial help?
Yes, we believe the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) issued March 27, 2020, allows massage therapists to file for unemployment benefits. Under the CARES Act, unemployment insurance benefits will temporarily be available to “an eligible self-employed individual” . . . “an individual who regularly carries on any trade or business.” It appears that this expanded eligibility applies to individuals who work “part-time,” a government definition that would cover a large proportion of massage therapists, estheticians, hair stylists, and nail professionals. You have to take the initiative to apply for unemployment insurance. 

Learn about unemployment benefits in your states. Be aware that states are working to create the policy and processes for self-employed unemployment as of April 1, 2020. It is expected be online in all states no later than April 10, 2020. Many members are sharing their individual application experiences and information on Facebook at www.facebook.com/abmppage.

Week in Review

Here is today’s fun tip for keeping us busy at home and keeping this blog music and massage therapy related.

This week saw a momentary resurgence in my ability to give massages to healthy people. For last week and this week I was able to see one client who lived close and give a couple massages to people with whom I privately contracted. That all ended on Wednesday at midnight when the governor of TX shut down everyone under the statute under which I practice for TDLR and this included hair dressers and massage therapists, barbers, tattoo artist etc. So now, where the establishment was shut down, now we aren’t supposed to do any massages at all period. I get it, you can’t give a massage or cut hair or do a tattoo and maintain a 6-10 foot distance, but we do need to make a living.

Fortunately he allowed us to file for unemployment. And I am still peddling my products that I love. I also drove for Favor one day, delivering groceries and food to people in Gatesville.

I have lost almost 30 pounds since July now and I really think it’s due to the products I use every day and the hormone (Shout out to Hormones by Design in Waco) regimen I have been on. It has helped so much. I discovered as so many do that while Weight Loss Surgery is helpful, it’s just a tool…however, if I hadn’t hit menopause and my Weight Loss goal the same month I think I would have had a better outcome. It’s been nice knowing that all those doctors I told that hormones were a problem were wrong when they told me just to eat less and move more.

Well, I have a busy Saturday ahead (Ok, not really) so I will sign off for now. I hope everyone has a great week.
