022: The Next Step for Therapists: The thERApist³ Community
In today’s episode I want to talk about something a little bit different - the brand new thERApist³ Community.
This is something I’ve created specifically for therapists who are ready to go a bit deeper in their work, build confidence in their clinical thinking, and feel supported by other therapists who really understand the challenges of this profession.
Working as a therapist can sometimes feel quite isolating. You’re making decisions on your own, navigating complex client cases, and often wondering whether other therapists are experiencing the same things. The thERApist³ Community is designed to change that.
In this episode I’ll explain what the community is, who it’s for, and how it can support you as you grow in your skills, your knowledge, and your confidence as a therapist.
So if you’re a therapist who’s looking for more support, more learning, and a place to have thoughtful conversations about real clinical practice... this episode is for you.

021: Oncology Massage: Moving Beyond Fear and Misconceptions
In today’s episode, we’re going to be talking about oncology massage and what this really means for therapists working in clinical practice.
Over the years, cancer has unfortunately become something that many of our clients are affected by: either personally, or through someone close to them.
As therapists, this means we are increasingly likely to work with people who are currently undergoing treatment, living with cancer, or recovering after treatment has finished.
But despite this, many therapists still feel uncertain.
They worry about whether it’s safe to treat someone with cancer, whether massage could cause harm, or whether they should avoid treating these clients altogether.
In this episode, we’re going to unpack some of those concerns. We’ll talk about what oncology massage actually is, how it differs from general massage, and what therapists need to understand in order to work safely and confidently with clients who have a cancer diagnosis.
Because the reality is that with the right knowledge and clinical reasoning, massage can play an incredibly supportive role for people during and after cancer treatment.
So if you’ve ever wondered what oncology massage really means for therapists, and how we should be thinking about working with clients who have a cancer diagnosis, this episode is for you.

020: The Lymphatic System: The Missing Link in Integrative Practice
In this episode, we shift from mindset and awareness back into the body, exploring one of the most overlooked systems in health and wellbeing: the lymphatic system.
Often associated only with detox or swelling, the lymphatic system plays a far deeper role in energy, immunity, emotional processing, and nervous system regulation. When lymph flow is supported, people often experience greater clarity, lighter energy, improved mood, and a deeper sense of ease in the body.
In this episode, Sam explores:
What the lymphatic system actually does (in simple, accessible terms)
Why stress, overwhelm, and emotional holding can impact lymphatic flow
How stagnation in the body can mirror stagnation in mindset and energy
Why Manual Lymphatic Drainage and Brazilian MLD are powerful tools within integrative health
How gentle, rhythmic touch supports safety, rest, and restoration
This episode is especially relevant for therapists and practitioners who want to understand how body-based work supports emotional wellbeing and mindset shifts, and for anyone curious about how healing happens when we support flow rather than force.
🌿 Healing isn’t always about doing more - sometimes it’s about helping the body move what it’s been holding.
