Hi everyone I'm so excited to be with you today. My name is Dr. Deborah Threadgill

Egerton. I am a psychotherapist. I am also known for my spiritual teaching and executive coaching and I'm the

Hay House author of No Justice, No Peace. What is incredible about today is that I'm going to be interviewing the fabulous

Tammu Thomas to talk to her about her new book, Women Who Work Too Much,

and I am so excited to be on this same program with her.

I read her book, I loved it, and I think it's something that you're going to love as well.

So without further ado, I'm going to ask Tamu to say hello and a few words are welcome.

Hello, hello everybody.

First of all, Dr E, I'm such a fan of you after meeting you at the Hay House Mastermind in October. I'm really delighted to be here and being

interviewed by you so thank you very much for doing this.

Hello everybody my name is Tamu Thomas. I am a coach and now soon to be

published Hayhouse author as a coach I work with women who have social impact businesses. They do work with the aim of making the world a

better place for humans, for animals, for this planet and I support them to create work that is sustainable and enables them to continue to do what they're doing

because when people do work that is rooted in love and care, especially women,

there's a tendency to devalue the work we do because we believe it comes naturally and caring is a female role.

And I support them to remember that their care is valuable and when they do work like that it's like soul work.

It comes from a really deep well inside and when you work in that way you need to

compensate yourself because you need like really tender loving care because you're

giving so much of yourself so I support them to do that and I've written this book Women Who Work Too Much because I am a

woman who works too much in recovery. I come from a long line of women who work too much and I think every woman I know works too much and once I

realized it wasn't just me that had the addiction to overworking, over giving, over thinking, over caring.

I realized, well, it can't just be an individual thing.
