In this episode of The ABMP Podcast, Kristin and Darren speak with Mindy Totten about how an injury changed her course, why she gravitated toward craniosacral therapy, how massage therapists can make the leap to a solo practice, and why she decided to become a mentor to the massage therapy community.

After 18+ years as a successful craniosacral therapist, it became Mindy Totten’s mission to help other massage and bodywork therapists build profitable businesses so they could serve more people AND make a great living doing it.

Through her private mentoring, group coaching programs, and as host of the Do It With Intention podcast, she’s here to show bodyworkers how to build practices they love—without burning out or selling out.

Her favorite accolade she’s ever received is when one of her students called her “a humorous version of Yoda.”

When she’s not helping big-hearted therapists create their dream practices, you can find her taking long road trip adventures, hanging out with her remarkable redbone coonhound, George, or bingeing episodes of Outlander.
