let’s MEET TARA

What happens when we no longer feel “resilient’ and cannot bounce back harder, faster, and stronger? After my mother passed away when she was 49 years old I could no longer bounce back, my foundation had been torn out from underneath me. I realized that what I needed wasn’t to harden so I could keep going but I needed a courageous space to slow down, soften and receive care. This is when I decided to stop nursing full -time and go back to school to get my masters in dance. As an international speaker, Nightingale Luminary Award winner, and Fulbright specialist I research how courageous care creates spaces of healing and joy in our lives and others. I invite you to join me and let us soften together as we learn the five steps of courageously caring first for ourselves and then for others. Book Tara to speak HERE
