In this two-part episode, Tamara shares her story and the story behind EmpowerMee. We discuss the importance of laying down your burdens with other women who get it, what authenticity really means, and how to overcome the challenges many of us face navigating life including self-doubt, our need for external validation of our worth, not asking for the support we need, and why and how we need to narrate our own stories especially as women of color in the workplace. She also shares her philosophy and reframe on the definition of failure and what we make it mean – her view is we should be failure fanatics.
