LIVE LIFE

Hey there!

I'M TAMAR

I believe that everything is possible,
when you allow yourself to be who you truly are.

I follow my dreams and prefer to see possibilities rather than limitations. When I set my mind to something, I make it happen. This has taken me to the most amazing places. From working as a trainer in South Africa to running a B&B in Curaçao and living in a cozy cabin in the Netherlands as a counterbalance to my busy career as a trainer.

With a backpack full of beautiful experiences, my family and I moved to Portugal, where we are building our 'Quintinha’. An authentic Portuguese house with a beautiful piece of land, where the possibilities are endless, inviting us to continuously create. This freedom gives me so much energy!

I never worried about big decisions, such as emigrating or taking on new challenges. Instead, I would often get caught up in small, trivial things that made me overthink for hours. How did something I did or said come across to someone else? Without realizing it, I would constantly adjust myself to meet expectations I thought others had of me. I began to notice the same phenomenon in my environment and in my work as a trainer. The extent to which - often self-imposed - "expectations from the outside world" can limit us fascinates me.

Driven by this curiosity, I started diving deeper into it. Over the years, I've learned how to let go of these limiting thoughts and feelings. In my opinion, letting go is one of the most powerful tools in this process. But in order to let go, it's important to be completely honest with yourself about what’s going on. Only when you fully embrace and acknowledge your worries can you create the space to release them. With that space, the pressure of expectations disappears, and freedom emerges. Freedom to truly be yourself and follow your dreams.

I firmly believe that everything is possible, as long as you embrace who you truly are and dare to let go of what others might think of it.
