In this episode, we will be discussing Disney Pixar's "Coco" with Whitney Garcia, LMT. Join us on Miguel's journey to the land of the dead and the family dynamics that travel with him!
Whitney Garcia is a Licensed Massage Therapist and owner of Wild Rose Massage Therapy.
Whitney Garcia was born and raised in Las Vegas, and now calls Texas home. It was massage therapy that helped her cope with multiple losses throughout her life and inspired her to become a licensed massage therapist seeking to bring relief to people experiencing stress, grief, anxiety and trauma. Fascinated by cultures of the world and fluent in Italian, she naturally chose to pursue her Bachelors of Arts degree in Cultural Anthropology from Brigham Young University. After being an at home parent to her 3 precious children for 8 years, she became a licensed massage therapist receiving her education from Ke Kino Institute of Healing in Plano, TX. She has received specialized training in the art of grief massage, holding space for pregnancy loss and trauma-informed touch through The Institute for Grief Massage Inc, The Institute for the Study of Birth, Breath and Death and Associated Bodywork and Massage Professionals (respectively). She has spent many hours volunteering in the foster care system and at domestic violence shelters, coaching youth sports and mentoring high school students in under-served communities. She loves the beach, dark chocolate and all things Sicilian. You can find her online through her website:
