Resources for Your Small Business
Making your mark on the world and being self employed takes more than just skills in your industry. It takes business resources too.
Whether you’re a small business owner, entrepreneur or soloprenuer, there’s always work to be done behind the scenes. These resources are a few that I use to keep the business operations moving smoothly so I can focus on bringing you more Ayurveda wellness services. I hope they can help you too.

Liability Insurance
Alternative Balance
Insurance isn’t anyone’s favorite subject, but a necessary part of any business and a requirement as a licenses massage therapist. I’ve been with Alternative Balance for nearly a decade. Not only do I have liability insurance in case of an injury or accident during a Massage, I’m covered for my Ayurveda Bodywork and Wellness Coaching. If it weren’t for Alternative Balance, I’d likely have multiple policies with multiple companies to keep us all protected.
