I’m Tamara

I was driving along the A41 (a busy dual carriageway) and suddenly the accelerator on my car stopped working and I had no choice but to pull over as it came to a standstill and phone for help. The RAC had a two-hour wait.  With no hard shoulder, the noise and fumes from the cars whizzing by at speed very close to me were overpowering and terrifying. The RAC suggested that I call the police if I couldn’t wait, so I did. Luckily a police woman came straight away!

When I got home and told Peter what had happened, he repeated my words back to me:

‘The faster I was trying to go, the slower I was going!’

I realised with a shock that this was a metaphor for how I was living my life. It was one of those wakeup calls when I realised that something had to change.

But how?

How could I do things differently?

I had to work, create an income, take care of my daughter, take care of my home. Like most working mums, I was juggling it all and getting nothing done well. But worst of all, I was spending most of my time not being present in the task I was doing in the moment, particularly when I was with my daughter.

It’s been a long journey and it’s still a work in progress. Along the way I have accumulated some amazing tools that I love teaching and supporting stressed women and frazzled mums with.

MY BACKGROUND

My early years were spent focusing on academic achievements and professional success within the IT industry.  My wake-up call was in the form of unexpected, intense stomach pains and I began to ask questions about my health and direction in life, leading me to explore alternative health options and lifestyle changes.  During that time, I discovered meditation which profoundly affected on my health and well-being, resulting in a shift of priorities. 

It wasn’t until the birth of my daughter, in 2000, and my initiation into the realm of motherhood that my passion for supporting women’s transitions came into its own. 

My professional journey includes EFT International Master Trainer of EFT, family constellations, matrix and matrix birth reimprinting,  meta health, law of attraction, picture tapping technique, enneagram, holistic childbirth and founder of the Birth Art Cafe, doula, and a fertility therapist.
