-George Addair
I am excited to welcome fellow entrepreneur, podcaster, and CrossFitter, Tamara Ghandour, to the T&T mic! As a business and fitness standout, Tamara shares her journey of personal and professional evolution with success, failure, and a huge passion for humans being humans. Tamara has a wealth of experience in the entrepreneurial and corporate worlds and leading both in humanizing innovation- guiding us to those desired solutions all while understating ourselves and one another just a little bit more. From her failed first small business idea in NYC to working with every major brand you can think of, Tamara proves she can question a better way and lead us to it. This is an awesome conversation for leaders of any kind or anyone looking to fully unleash their human potential for themselves and others. Tamara leads with empathy, knowledge, experience, confidence, and most importantly- heart… understand the individual and see what the team can do!
Highlights:
Unleashing human potential. Doing things your way. Why humans do the things they do. Failure, success, and evolution. Leadership, fitness, and equalizers. Self-belief, mental health, and CrossFit. Innovation. Seeking and finding purpose. Loving people and reaching goals. Individuals and teams.
