As a sought-after speaker and visionary career coach, she has helped thousands world-wide to discover, launch, and live the life, calling, and business of their dreams.
Some say this woman is a catalyst. Some have called her “Rocket Fuel for Your Destiny.” Some just thought she was the funniest and most moving speaker they’d ever seen. But Rev. Michael Bernard Beckwith (of “The Secret” fame & Founder of Agape International Spiritual Center in L.A.) summed it up for all when he said:
“Tama Kieves is the real deal!”
Rev. Howard E. Caesar, senior minister of Unity Church of Christianity in Houston, TX, said:
"Tama is a spiritual firecracker!
She is energetic, entertaining, humorous and
authentic in sharing her message of truth."
You won’t be taking a chance by choosing Tama. The woman’s been vetted. You will be taking a chance by not bringing her in now. (We wouldn’t suggest it, but we will love you anyway. That’s just how we roll.) Here are just a few brief highlights from Tama’s over 20 years of living, breathing and sharing her work with the world:
- She’s spoken at the biggest New Though churches in the country, at Harvard Law School and business conferences, and keynoted at conferences with Marianne Williamson, Michael Beckwith, Jean Houston, Dan Millman, Don Miguel Ruiz, Rhonda Britten, Joe Vitale and more.
- She leads retreats and workshops regularly and has been recognized as “Extraordinary Faculty” at prestigious venues such as the Omega Institute, Kripalu Health and Yoga Center, Shambhala Mountain Center, Naropa University, Hollyhock, Canyon Ranch (6 Star Spa) and the New York Open Center.
- She has been featured as one of today's greatest teachers in the Los Angeles Times bestseller A Blessing in Disguise: 39 Life Lessons from Today's Greatest Teachers (Barkely/Penguin), along with Thich Nhat Hanh, Joan Borysenko, Martha Beck, Dean Ornish, and others. She has also been featured in 100 Words: 200 Visionaries Share Their Hope for the Future (Conari Press), along with Alice Walker, Jane Goodall, Caroline Myss, Christiane Northrup, and more.
- She has studied and taught A Course in Miracles for over 20 years and has keynoted at international ACIM conferences.
Oprah says that “finding your calling” is the most important thing you can do in your life. Career transition and right livelihood is the red hot topic to many in the country right now--growing daily. Why not have one of the freshest new voices speak to what your audience wants to learn? In this era of global change, Tama has her pulse on awakening the creative and inspired capacities in others. She grew her own creative empire into an international presence through inspired and unconventional means. She teaches “In times of economic uncertainty, true passion is your greatest security.” And she backs it up with her conviction, wisdom, life-practices and success stories.
Unlike typical speakers and experts, Tama doesn’t just entertain and uplift, she facilitates, listens and guides. And she does it all with a dose of something rare and precious… you “get” her… you like her… you believe her. Through her dynamic humor, electrifying presence, “realness” and the big possibilities she brings to every room, Tama helps you believe something new about yourself and about what’s possible. She is a jewel whose singular style causes her to stand out amongst her talented peers. Tama takes perennial messages and makes them come alive, because her LOVE makes audiences come alive to themselves. Here what some audience members have said:
“Whenever I’ve seen a great speaker, I always leave the room thinking how great that person was. When I saw Tama speak, I left knowing how great I am. Wow!”
—S. Maloney of Colorado
“Truly Tama is anointed. Time with her is not to be missed."
—J. Roberts of New Jersey
The video of Tama’s recent TEDx talk will be posted here soon.
