In this rich and energetic episode, I am joined by the multi-passionate and deeply intuitive Blanca—massage therapist, holistic life coach, Zumba instructor, dancer, and certified canine massage therapist. With decades of experience in the healing arts, Blanca shares how music has always been her silent co-therapist—whether she's working with trauma survivors, veterans, or even dogs.
Together, we dive into:
• How music shapes the emotional landscape of a massage session
• Why silence can be just as therapeutic as sound
• Navigating energy exchange as a practitioner—and how music supports that
• The darker misconceptions about massage and the importance of boundaries
• Using specific playlists for dogs during canine massage
• The personal story that brought Blanca to a powerful emotional reckoning
From spa music to salsa, from trauma to trust, this conversation will inspire you to reflect on how deeply music moves through our bodies, memories, and healing journeys.
