JacksonHowell's Personal Masseur Interview

Last Updated: Sep 13, 2022

- I doubt any other masseurs were stupid enough to get a full on degree in chemical engineering that they didn't end up using. Distinguishably smart, but also a loveable wholesome idiot.

- I love to travel! I love meeting new people and seeing what kind of impact they'll have in my life and vice versa. I think every person has some kind of lesson to take from them when you meet them, so I try to take every opportunity to meet new people and experience life.

- I was working as a chemist in a cannabinoid lab but work wouldn't allow me time off to go take care of my brother when he was ill, so I decided to take up massage so that I can bend my schedule to be there for my people and still make money efficiently. My massage clients have all been really good guys and I've gotten a lot of validating experiences from them, it makes me feel good knowing that I've made a positive impact for clients, and I take solace in knowing that I have more space to be a better friend now too.

- Game nights, reading, and cross stitching take up the bulk of my hobby time! I do have a degree in music performance but I'm not quite professional anymore... I don't go out to the bars all that much and prefer to just have a nice night with a close friend watching an anime and eating comfort food :)

- I just want to know that I made a genuinely positive impact on your life, whether that looks like relaxing you, being a friend that you can just talk to and feel valued by, or just giving you a little win in your life. So long as you leave feeling genuinely better about life then I'm happy.

- I decided to fully be a masseur after two really incredible clients; they were both older men with some unique life experiences, one while I obviously can't share any details I felt like I actually helped them and ended up being a big part of their lives, and that's just incredibly validating for me.
