Living My Authentic Life By Tamara (Tammy) Palmer Rise Up with Tamara
Where do I even begin on this epic journey that has been my life? At the beginning, I guess. I was born Tammy Lynn McDermot on May 24, 1975, to a 21-year-old single mom. While she did the best she could, her lifestyle led her to leave me with friends when I was just six weeks old. At four, I was sent to live with my grandparents, and when that didn't work out, I moved through a series of foster homes—thirty-two in total, along with two failed adoptions. Abandoned as a baby and bounced from home to home, I felt let down by everyone, including the system meant to save me. Years of self-medication followed, as I tried to numb myself behind the wall of protection I attempted to build. For a few years, I lived with a woman I later realized was a channeler, or medium.
For my 16th birthday, she introduced me to my first Tarot deck and gave me my first reading, where she told me I would go on to be a healer with the ability to help change the world. If only I could get past my inhibitions. By 2010, I had been living on the streets for several years, having survived rape and abuse and walked out of two toxic marriages. I had two babies, both of whom I made the difficult choice to give up for adoption because I was too deep into my addictions. Still searching for someone else to save me. Raised in religion and taught about faith, I knew from a very young age that I didn’t belong there. Within days of my second husband walking out the door, I began to open up. I began to wake up!
I started to save myself. In December 2017, I traveled to Banff, Alberta, to participate in a conference co-hosted by Carmel Joy Baird and Sonia Choquette, along with the entire Team Baird. I went in with reservations, my walls of protection high. I contemplated leaving many times and wore my attitude like a suit of armor. Yet, I was open to whatever transpired. That change happened near the end of the conference. On Sunday, I experienced the most amazing breakdown/breakthrough of my entire life. It sent me on a direction I could never have imagined for myself, but now see how perfectly Divine it was. The weekend taught me to let go of my fears and embrace my gifts, which are as much a part of me as my skin and breath. It also taught me to Trust the Process and accept that I was exactly where I needed to be at that time in my life. Life moved quickly after that. I completed my Certified Mediumship Training under the guidance of my new mentor, Carmel, and was filled with an emotion I wasn’t used to: Pride. I was doing exactly what I was meant to do. I opened myself up to this amazing transformation, wanting to help guide others on their healing journeys by sharing messages they needed from their loved ones who crossed over. I want to give others the same gift that was given to me—to show them that life doesn’t end; we all go to Love and Light, and in Love and Light, we will meet again.
My biggest gift as a medium in Alberta is living my authentic self. I don’t try to present as someone I’m not or copy other people’s style or presentations. I am just me, being the best version of myself I can be. I share my experiences with others in an open and honest forum. I don’t sugarcoat my past or try to deny it. I learned that overcoming my past and rewriting my story were my growth opportunities. Everything I experienced brought me right here to where I am today: shining my light in the dark corners of life, helping to guide others on their own journeys. Today, I have completed many certifications. As of January 2021, even as I write this, I can't believe how much my life has changed since 2008 in just over three years. I have no regrets from opening up, and I am so excited to help others open up to their own gifts and abilities and help raise the energy and vibrations of our planet. If you're looking for guidance, remember there are many talented Alberta mediums and psychics in Alberta ready to assist you on your journey. Namaste Love & Light
