If you’ve found yourself here, chances are you’ve been doing some reflecting and are looking for resources and support to help you to really make that shift to becoming that version of you that feels the most true.

Our goal is to help you understand the journey that has led you to who you are today.

To help you discover who you want to be and to support you with practical tools that enable change, growth and happiness. We are here to help you step away from fear and self-limiting beliefs, and step into your potential and believing that you’re worthy. It’s a hard thing to put into words, because that key moment of change is something that is FELT. We love to watch the magic unfold throughout our courses. To see that defining moment in each person where their mind and life shifts in a such huge way that you know they’ll never be the same again. That is why we do what we do. It’s about helping others experience the transformation we have gone through and know is possible with the right guidance.

Who is EmpowerME for?

EmpowerMe began as a post-crisis option for survivors of sexual trauma to discover who and where they are in the world following trauma therapy, to further understand their healing journey and really connect to who they want to be and how to make it happen. However, over the years it has developed and changed a bit. It’s not just about trauma survivors, we help all women who want to improve their wellbeing and overall satisfaction of life, but just don’t know where to start. We’re also busy developing courses for men too!

How does it work?

We have a range of different courses, but the journey and outcomes are the same, it’s the delivery that varies.

  • First we explore and expand your understanding of human behaviours (yours and others) and identify beliefs and conditioning so that you can choose which are still serving you.

  • We then explore emotional intelligence to give you the ability to understand, use and manage your emotions in positive ways.

  • You’ll also discover how to modify and transform your engrained human behaviours to create the changes you want to.


The goal is to arm you with the knowledge, skills and tools to help you reach your goals and become the person you want to be. But also, to enable you to truly believe in yourself. The ultimate goal is happiness, in yourself and with where you are taking your life.

What can I expect to gain? 

The journey you’ll take with us will leave you feeling empowered, confident and armed with the knowledge of what you can do to move forward with your life in the best way possible.

Meet Tamara

Hi, I’m Tamara and I’m so glad you’re here.

I have experienced mental health challenges throughout my life, a result of childhood sexual abuse and sexual violence which spanned across many years. Just after my 30th birthday, I experienced a life changing moment and it hit me like a rock. Something had to change within me on a seriously deep level and I was the only one who could make it happen.

My journey

I began my journey to find meaning in my life, to figure out who I wanted to be and what I wanted my life to look like. There was so much room for improvement and bit by bit, day by day, I created the change I so desperately needed, wanted and deserved.


This path led to the birth of EmpowerMe and the work I am so passionate about. I discovered along my journey that my gift is seeing the potential in others and enabling them to see it in themselves, which naturally allows them to expand, grow, improve their success goals, and achieve their dreams. It is the most rewarding thing to see someone blossom in this way.


I have spent many years practicing, learning and researching neuroscience, positive psychology, Buddhism, cognitive therapies, mindfulness, habit change, and all the healing tools beneficial to not only improving our mental wellbeing, but expanding our consciousness to serve us in all the ways we deserve.  


It’s taken me a lifetime to figure out what keeps me feeling my absolute best, and it is a lifelong and daily practice to stay here. The gift I want to give is not only a safe and supportive trauma-informed environment for women to connect, explore and learn what feels good for them—knowing they are not alone in their experiences—but a place where they can imagine who they dream to be, and support them to become that. To provide a platform where women can empower themselves and each other constantly and continuously for as long as they need it.


This platform is everything that I am and everything I want to be. It’s what I wished I’d had when I had completed years of trauma therapy while still experiencing an uncertainty of who I was and how I fit in the world. It’s the sisterhood I always thought I didn’t deserve, the mother who never had the capacity to support me emotionally, and the community that gives me a sense of belonging and purpose.
