Welcome home. I'm Dr. Tama, a minister, licensed psychologist, and sacred artists.

podcast is not a substitute for therapy. I'm so excited you're on the journey. If you

Jamie's Promise V for life. I honor to myself to love, care, and

surrounded by, rich or poor, sickness or in health

working or not working

studying or not studying
