Fully Present Living

Meet Tammy Your Fully Present Living Guide

Hello! I am the founder of Fully Present Living and I am blessed to follow my calling as an energy intuitive and a connection engineer. My passion is connection – not just connection with others, but more specifically connection to self. My passion in life is to inspire you to connect to yourself and others, and to empower you to live fully present in your life. The resources on this site, combined with my mentoring and healing gifts, are here to help you make that connection, and bring the sparkle back to every day of your life.

My Sledge Hammer

I haven’t always been connected to myself in this way. In fact, I used to lead two quite separate existences. One half of my life was full of externally defined success, and the other was filled with empty despair. I found myself feeling hollow and alone, lying in bed at night, staring at the ceiling, worrying about my future, obsessing about my past and generally making messy, damaging mistakes in my life. I was suffering from disconnection. I did not love myself. I was becoming mentally, emotionally and even physically ill. I was ignoring all the subtle hints that I needed to connect, and I was about to lose everything from the successful part of my life. I knew that something had to shift and I resolved to make dramatic changes. I call this the sledge-hammer approach to connection.

Finally, out came the sledge-hammer. I was forced to reconnect with my vibrant, true self, and I learned to take care of myself without feeling guilty! At last I could look in the mirror with love, but what a huge mess I had made!

Connecting with myself at this profound level was unspeakably transformational. The difficulty (the sledge-hammer) in the process became my inspiration; to empower others to achieve this connection, minus the destruction! I thought, why can’t we love ourselves and listen to what we need before life brings out the sledge-hammer? I decided to make it my mission to guide others to achieve this, and thus began the coaching part of my career. I now feel blessed every day, as I am guiding beautiful souls to listen to the gentle hints and avoid the hammer; thus creating unbounded joy in their lives.

A lifetime of experience

My education and personal growth has been part messy and part organized. I’ve been an expert Mom (not a perfect one!) for over 25 years and I have been married (not perfectly of course!) for almost 30 years – to a man I adore. My life isn’t perfect, but if there’s one thing I have learned; it’s in these imperfections that we find true inspiration and magnificence.

I have spent years of my life learning, growing and working through challenges and triumphs. As long as I can remember, I have been helping people connect to each other and more recently, with themselves.

I have always adored science and also, what science hasn’t yet measured! Early on in life, I read books on meditation and spirituality. I have since explored many religions and philosophies about creation and spiritual growth. Whenever anything new came into my life, I gathered information to prepare to make the most useful choices I could. In college, I earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Math and had a 10-year career as a software developer at Boeing, robotics engineer at Venus-Gusmer, and technology evangelist at Microsoft.

I have studied fitness, food, families, and holistic and traditional healing systems, both for my health, and for my family. To deepen my interests, I spent 4 years at the NW School of Healing studying under Dr. Alima Hamilton. In addition to this, I spent 2 years at the Chopra Center University studying under Dr. Deepak Chopra and the late Dr. David Simon to become a certified Perfect Health (Ayurvedic Lifestyle) instructor. I am a certified Holistic Life, Career, and Executive Coach from the Goal Imagery Insttute studying under Dr. Marianna Lead. I am also a Proffessional Certified Coach (PCC) with the International Coaching Federation (ICF). I have developed physical, emotional and spiritual healing techniques that include:

   •   Life and Career Coaching
   •   Nonviolent Communication (based on Dr. Marshall Rosenburg's practice)
   •   Earth Energetics (based on the work of Dr. Barbara Brennan)
   •   Core Energetics (body-based psychotherapy rooted in the work of Dr. John Pierrakos)
   •   Hypnotherapy
   •   Basic Cranial Sacral
   •   Ayurvedic Lifestyle (Perfect Health)
   • Reiki (I am a Reiki Master through the lineage of Iris Ishakura)
   •   Yoga
   •   Meditation

Here to Help – Body, Mind, or Spirit

Whether you are experiencing physical pain or discomfort, emotional turmoil or spiritual uncertainty, I can help. Using both extensive life-experience and healing techniques, I’ll work with you to transform your life and get you reconnected with your happier, healthier, more vibrant self. I won’t have all your answers, but I will guide you to find them in yourself.

If you’re ready to start the journey, simply get in touch.

Dearest Tammy, Amazing is almost an understatement! I have felt a lightness since our session that is both new and timeless. I can't thank you enough. I think amazing is the word that I would use to describe your many beautiful gifts. What a light you are! Beaming

Tammy was one of the keys to my making it through chemotherapy for breast cancer. Each Reiki session relieved my nausea, and left me feeling relaxed and peaceful. A truly wonderful experience.

- Karen W.

I went to Tammy in incredible pain in my hips from an aggravated bone spur. The moment she touched my legs, I felt a calming sensation and relief from the pain. She knew where to touch my body without me saying a word to calm the pain. There is an amazing feeling of balance and calm when Tammy performs her Reiki/energy work.The touch is so gentle and yet the feeling of balance and calm is huge.

Tammy has really helped my children. My son broke both of his arms in the last three years (yes he's very active) and both times Tammy assisted with improving comfort and amazingly relieved swelling. Tammy saw my daughter 2 hours after she had her wisdom teeth removed and my daughter never had any bruising and had a tiny bit of swelling on the second day that lasted for only two days. Body with Mind is truly healing.

- Karin B.

I saw Tammy for Fear of Flying. The hypnotherapy sessions took away my anxiety and worry when I fly. I still feel anxious when we hit turbulence but the intense feeling of needing to get out of the plane is gone. I know when I walk on the plane that I will get safely to my destination and do not need to panic as we take off. I successfully flew to Europe and back over the summer!

- Kris W.

I have no health issues, and wanted to try Reiki out of curiosity. I loved it. During the session I felt very peaceful. After, I was relaxed and energized and very focused for several hours. I plan on making another appointment soon.

- Lois M.

Tammy has helped me so much in my life. I had a hole to fill and I was always looking outside myself to fill it. I searched and searched and tried and tried, but I could never fill it. I just continued to feel empty. Then I started to look inside and she taught me to meditate and helped me learn some invaluable tools to find my inner fullness! Now I walk around with a spark and others even comment on it! They say "Wow! You look great - you are in such a great place!" I appreciate Tammy!!!!

My inability to speak in public or even to speak up for myself has held me back in my life and definitely in my career. Speaking in meetings at work made me sick to my stomach and I would end up crying on the way home after meetings. Tammy has me doing lots of exercises to get me SPEAKING UP and (OMG ) actually making it FUN!!!! I signed up for to work with her privately to overcome my fear of public speaking and I am showing up grounded to speak not only publically but in my LIFE - I'm definitely getting to where I want to be! ! Love, love, love working with Tammy because somehow she has made being the centre of attention FUN, I am walking around getting my "sexy" on (to practice for my recording assignments ) hahahaha!!!!!!!!

Tammy helped me be the best me I can be! I am profoundly grateful to her! Before I worked with Tammy, I overscheduled myself so I wouldn't be alone with my overwhelming thoughts. I was scattered and ungrounded. Now I love just hanging out with Linda! I actually make sure I have time to spend with my thoughts! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

- Fully Present in Sammamish and St. Louis

I first visited Tammy in September of 2014. My mom passed away that August, I was unhappy, overweight and totally inactive. I had difficulty sleeping and I felt that more than anything I needed to develop a more balanced approach in my every day life. Tammy and I worked closely from that time until March 2015 meeting once a week and reinforcing our visits with an additional weekly phone call. With Tammy's help I was able to develop a multitude of strategies that allowed me to alter my daily routine, help with weight loss and daily interactions. With her help I was able to gradually lose a total of 40 lbs. without any caloric daily regiment or some weight loss program. She pushed me to resume daily exercise routines and for the first time in 20+ years I started a regular but sensible and consistent workout schedule. I have been able to sustain these life enhancing strategies even though I no longer see Tammy regularly and this past fall I completed my first ever half and full marathons and I am currently working out to run more. If you feel you need to change your life approach and are ready for a jump start Tammy is the person to talk to. She will gently guide you and develop a program that will fit your individual needs! I consider her a confidant and a friend and if I ever find myself needing reinforcement she will be the person I would visit. Thank you Tammy!

Hi, Tammy, I Googled you because I wanted to thank you again for your caring and competent coaching during our Mentoring Session. Your coaching style allowed me to do my best work in reaching my intended goal. Additionally, you gave me the space I needed to think through the excellent questions you asked me. These essentials helped me uncover my awareness about why I needed coaching on this particular subject. It is a blessing for me to have "met" you through the coaching today. I wish you every success. Blessings & Joy, Regan

Tammy, As I look back at the past year, there are many things I am thankful for. One of the biggest thanks is your guidance throughout the year. I am in a better state of mind and I'm happy again. Thanks so much for being there.

- Fully Present in Sammamish

Quick note to say hi and how much I appreciate you. It's been the toughest year of my life, and I often think about how all that great work I've had the opportunity to do with you gave me the foundation and strength to not only "power through" but also be thankful for the growth and learning opportunities that have come with the challenges.
