In July of 2000, a study in the International Journal of Stress Management found 67% of teachers surveyed reported their jobs as "extremely stressful". In this life-changing presentation, Tami will tell you about the 4 hormones that could be shaving years off of your life! Then you will learn about 4 strong human emotions teachers have and how to manage them for your health and happiness!



I have seen Tami deliver messages to many different groups - students, teachers, principals,and county administrators. She has the ability to connect with each group and make a difference! Her messages are always inspiring and never without humor!

I'll Be Happy When .... A Positive Attitude Changes Everything
Consider this: Teachers work approximately 200 days a year (that's paid days anyway!). Do you find yourself thinking, I'll be happy when 3:00 gets here! I'll be happy when Christmas break gets here! I'll be happy when summer break gets here! If you do, consider that negativity may be hindering your success as a teacher and a person 200 days every year! It doesn't have to be this way. In this captivating presentation, you will learn about the 5 most destructive negative thought patterns and how to change them in an instant. You won't want to miss this opportunity to change the direction of your life!

When Sugar and Spice Stops Being So Nice! .... Reaching Our Girls
We've all heard it: Sugar and Spice and everything nice! When puberty hits, however, nice may take a little vacation. Research shows that most girls will not learn what you have to teach them without a relationship with you. But how do you get one? This enlightening presentation will help you to understand the connection between hormones and behavior. You will learn about the female brain. You will learn what is age-appropriate behavior and how to spot potential emotional problems. Come and find out how you can nurture and help these girls (even the Mean Girls!) through this difficult time while still maintining your position as a teacher.

This is NOT What I Signed Up For! .... Mentoring the New Teacher
New teacher surveys indicate they work up to 70 hours per week! A 2006 study showed that 1/2 of these beginning teachers leave within the first 5 years. You can help. We all can. A formal mentoring program changes this frightening statistic. This motivating presentation will leave you with not only a burning desire to help, but also the tools to do so. You'll return to your school equipped to start mentoring even on a tight time budget!

The Woman's Retreat ....
All over the country corporate woman are given the opportunity to attend professional woman's conferences. This one is for you! You will be entertained, inspired, motivated, and changed. Tami will share her experience and expertise as a working woman to help you with communication, stress, emotions, work-life balance, and more. Plan to laugh, cry, and grow as a professional like you've never grown before!
