About - Tammy Collins

Who is Tammy Collins?

In short- I’m just a woman who happens to be a mom, a wife, a friend, and maybe even a foe to some. In truth, you are these things too.

I’m multi-dimensional. There’s many layers, interests, talents, gifts, and quirks!

I’m just like you!

But I’m also a creative visionary who struggled for years to find my purpose.

Despite many successes, I always felt like something was missing. I felt frustrated, lost, and – well, stuck. Totally overused word, I know! But it’s true.

I was stuck, frozen, and even- paralyzed. By what exactly, I really didn’t know for most of my life.

I got sick of being stuck. I hit a rock bottom of sorts. I decided that if I didn’t like who I was or where I was in my life, only I could change it.

So that’s what I set out to do.

I went back to college at 45!

This is a picture of me in 2013 getting an award for Rookie of the Year! It’s the first in a series of many awards I would receive over a 3 year period.

There's More to the Story?

Since I was about 13 or 14, I was creating things, selling things, and planning to take over the world with my creativity!

Fabulous, right? Wrong!

I have started more businesses than I count or even remember.

In my really early years- I’m talking high school, I made and sold surf shorts and fancy covered photo albums. As a young adult, I started my own all natural cleaning products and skin care line. I sold them through home shows and in store fronts. That evolved into an upcycled trash to treasure store. It did well but I didn’t have the knowledge or resources to take it where it needed to go.

In truth, I really didn’t want it to evolve- more on that later.

My store became a mural and high-end decorative arts finishing business which evolved into an interior design business.

I also started a company called The Denim Dog which was carried in several stores. It was a dog product line made from recycled denim and men’s ties!

I also created a magazine called The Wet Nose News. I did everything myself. Copy, design, sales, photography- talk about too many hats!

I ended up working for a high-end remodeling builder as an interior designer. I was offered the Marketing Director role for them.

I earned many awards while at this company but I was miserable.

That’s me in 2018. My son, Maxwell Collins, took this picture- he’ s an amazing photographer. I’m still learning to love myself in print.

Finding the super power...

From the outside I should have been blissfully happy. This made me even more miserable. Why? I felt that I couldn’t talk about it.

When I did, no one understood.

I was just surviving in life and not thriving as I knew I should.

I had a burning in my soul. I knew I was suppose to be doing something else and that I was meant to do more- much more.

But what? How?

In a conversation with my then boss, it hit me out of no where.

The reason I started so many businesses and endeavors is because I was honing my craft. That’s why I didn’t really want them to evolve. I got bored with them. It was about turning the ideas into offers, products, and services that were a hit.

See my genius is being able to turn ideas into a reality and make them a thriving business.

Duh!

I can’t believe it took me so long to see it! I had been practicing it over and over again.

My gift- my genius- my super power is a unique set of things- education, talent, creativity and my ability to see things. Visualizing them on another, out-of-this-world, level.

This combination allows me to create powerful brands, build businesses, craft amazing marketing strategies, and take an idea from a spark to scale! ,

Understanding Why I was Stuck!

I found a path to move out of the many fears I had- 15 to be exact! You name it I had it. Extreme impostor syndrome, a horrible scarcity mindset and borderline obsessive perfectionism all kept me frozen!

I found a way out! And now I help other women who suffer from the insatiable calling to do or be something more in their lives but can’t quite figure it out.

I went from just surviving in life to thriving and prospering beyond my wildest dreams! I’ve even purchased a mountain – a lifelong dream. More on that another time.

Even though I was a multi-award-winning interior designer, artist, and Marketing Director I was feeling terribly unfulfilled.

What’s worse is I felt like I couldn’t talk about it.

Why?

Because from the outside looking in – everything was great.

Even though I had an accomplished career and had earned a dozen awards in design, website, ads, sales, and social media, something was missing.

See my strange non-traditional path turned out to be the secret formula needed to unlock my superpower. As a serial entrepreneur with successes and failures, I was struggling for years to understand my talents and how to use them. I had to take that path to unlock my magic!

Once I stopped looking, it surfaced in an unexpected way.

Now I use my education and real boots on the ground experience with a system that helps businesses and entrepreneurs turn ideas into a profitable reality.
