In this episode of The Miracle You, your host Vince Kramer of Imagine Miracles introduces you to a leadership coach and the CEO of Wild Divine Retreat Center, Tamara Herl. Vince and Tamara talked about the availability of divine guidance at all times and ways on how you can tap into it.
During the course of her 30-year career as a teacher, counselor, and coach Tamara Herl noticed that her colleagues began experiencing increased difficulty adapting to the rapid changes that were taking place in the systems where they were working.
In response, Tamara began developing a wide variety of services and programs to help people in the human service and helping professions adapt to the changes and manage their burnout and compassion fatigue. What sets Tamara apart from other coaches is her ability to weave experiential practices that include spirituality, visual art, and nature into her work with clients.
Tamara facilitates profound nature connected coaching and expressive arts coaching sessions, both virtual and on sight at Wild Divine Retreat Center near Colorado Springs, her beautiful 8.5 acre property that includes a labyrinth, a sparkling stream, sacred geometry, and hiking trails. She creates custom-designed retreats to help teams problem solve, celebrate their successes, and enhance their leadership skills.
Tamara is a speaker at local, state, national, and international levels. Her program, “Inviting Creativity & Spirituality into the Workplace” helped Prairie View, Inc. in Newton, Kansas, win an international award for spirituality in the workplace in 2007. Tamara had an article called “Finding Light at The End of the Funnel” published in Art Therapy: the Journal of the American Art Therapy Association in 1992.
Tamara is a Licensed Professional Counselor, Registered/Board Certified Art Therapist, Associate Certified Life Coach, and a Certified Forest Therapy Guide.
