Thriving as a ‘Tall Poppy’ with Tamara Von Dohren

Tamara Von Dohren is an executive coach and advisor who focuses on empowerment and strategy. She is the founder of The Lone Wolf Coach, where she helps entrepreneurs, solopreneurs, and executives discover what ignites them so they can take action towards their goals and gifts. Before becoming a coach, Tamara worked internationally in the insurance, media/communications, event management, leadership, and education industries. A high-achiever by nature, Tamara was pushed into a box for 25 years, hiding her true potential to ‘not intimidate others.’ Today, she works to help other ‘tall poppies’ find their way and free themselves of who they believe they are supposed to be and discover who they truly are.

Tamara joins me today to share what it was like for her growing up as a ‘tall poppy’ in Australia and how this concept impacted her through her life. Tamara discusses her eclectic international career, the diverse range of experiences she had through her travels, and some of the key lessons she learned.Tamara also highlights the power of putting yourself into the unknown and embracing possibility as well as what she attributes to some of the once-in-a-lifetime experiences she has had in her life.

“We’re all lone wolves in entrepreneurship in some way because we’re all breaking from the norm and trying to carve a different path.” - Tamara Von Dohren
