Fortunately a friend suggested meeting with Tamara when I was going through such turmoil in my head and heart that I couldn't see straight! Having never been to a coach before I didn't know what to expect. Tamara welcomed me with open arms and a warm smile. I felt comfortable right from the start. As soon as we began speaking she let me know that this was about me and no one else. Tamara helped me understand that I am the one that I have control over. That thought put my head back on straight and we carried on from there. In an amazingly short amount of time Tamara infused me with confidence, filled me with self-caring and prompted me to take action and control of my own situation. I left feeling tall, smart, energized and full of love! I left feeling empowered with enough left over to help others feel the same. The tools she gave me to work with each day there after, are so great that they are never left on the shelf unused!
