My Business Name
Reclaiming my wholeness authentic and unseparated
I have carried a few names for my businesses over the last few decades the main one was Anahera Koha but in 2019 I had a massive shift that left this feeling out dated. I didn’t want to rebrand or change anything but after some journaling I started to see that using my name or a version of my name may be the best way forward. The more I leaned into owning Tammie Maree as my business name the more I was able to see how much of my life had been shaping me to reclaim this part of me.
Tammy Maree is my birth name but when I was about 13 I started writing poetry and started using Tammie it has kind of stuck I have considered making it my legal name but have not got there yet due to finances and not wanting to offend my parents but my mum recently said I should change it legally so I am considering it again. I later had another aha moment around a little personal humorous twist in using Tammie Maree - I'm only addressed by both my names when I was in trouble or seen as inappropriate both growing up and even now as part of my plan is to move towards some taboo or controversial topics so it felts right and authentic to use a version of my real name in this moment.
My Vaules
These guide my decisions within my business and in my creative vision they also ground my relationship with my self and extended individuals within my business circle
