    What happens when the business you built can’t grow unless you step out of it?

    In this episode of The Heart-Led Business Show, I sit down with Amber Briggle, founder of Soma Massage Therapy, to explore the turning point where “doing it all” stops working, and what it takes to rebuild a business that can actually sustain you.

    From juggling clients, calls, payroll, and motherhood to stepping back from the treatment room entirely, Amber shares how necessity forced a new way of working. We dive into her no-tipping model, how she reverse-engineers pricing around real costs and fair wages, and why structure, not hustle, is what allowed her business to finally scale.

    A grounded, honest look at building something that works with your life, not against it.
