About Tammy
Hi, I’m Tammy — Soul Coach, Akashic Records Reader, Workshop Creator, Speaker, and lighthouse for women who are tired of dimming, doubting, and disappearing into everyone else’s needs.
My mission? To create safe, nurturing spaces where women who feel invisible, exhausted, or disconnected from themselves can break free from self-doubt and reconnect with their truth, joy, and self-belief — so they rise feeling seen, supported, loved, and wildly authentic.
My Superpower
Love. Always love.
It’s the heartbeat of everything I do. I awaken it in others by creating spaces where you can drop the mask, exhale, and finally be yourself — messy bun, tears, laughter and all. I weave humour, depth, and soul magic into everything I do, so you leave feeling lighter, braver, and more connected to who you really are.
My Journey
I didn’t land here by accident.
At 14½, I left home to escape mental, physical, and emotional abuse. That choice forced me to grow up quickly and left me with a cruel inner voice whispering that I wasn’t enough. For years, I carried that voice — overachieving, people-pleasing, holding it all together for everyone else — while secretly wondering when it would finally feel like my turn.
I’ve spent my life rewriting that story — one messy, brave, imperfect step at a time. Letting go of the voices that dimmed me. Choosing joy, adventure, and self-love, even when it felt impossible. Learning that I didn’t have to do it all alone.
Along the way I:
✨ Raised three incredible children with my husband while moving countries (Australia → Hong Kong → New York City → New Zealand).
✨ Faced more than my fair share of obstacles (most recently sending cancer on a permanent beach holiday 🍹).
✨ Built a global coaching practice that blends professional training with intuition, humour, and the lived wisdom of everything I’ve walked through.
✨ Learned that grit and resilience matter — but so do laughter, belonging, and love.
Every twist and turn has been a classroom. And the biggest lesson? That the light I kept searching for outside of me was already within me.
Today, my inner child is proud of the woman I see in the mirror, my present self leads with curiosity and grace, and my future self reminds me daily that joy, courage, and love are my true north stars.
And now, I get to hold the light for other women who are ready to do the same — to stop dimming, to start believing, and to finally feel seen, supported, and celebrated.

I’m a laughter-loving foodie, crystal collector, dress-up party enthusiast, and mum of three. I geek out over cooking for friends, spontaneous adventures, and creating magical rituals out of ordinary moments.
I’m resilient, loyal, curious, and fiercely devoted to helping women love themselves as deeply as they love others. Because when we do, we rise — and when one woman rises, we all rise.
My Promise
I’ll hold space for you to come as you are, get what you need, and return home to yourself.
Because you’ve always been worthy. You’ve always been loved. And you’ve always carried the light inside you.
Why the name?
“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” — Romeo & Juliet
For me, Ray of Light is more than a name. It’s a tribute to my father, Raymond, who never believed he was capable of being anyones light — yet he was to many. It also mirrors my own journey of claiming my voice, trusting my truth, and remembering that even in the darkest seasons, there is always light to guide the way.
Ray of Light is more than a name. It’s an invitation.
✨ To choose joy, adventure, and courage over comfort.
✨ To remember that no matter how heavy life feels, the light inside you will always guide you home.
✨ To speak your truth, follow your dreams, and believe in yourself — because you are loved, and you were never meant to do it all alone.
