Overcoming the Mindset of 'Just Surviving' with Tammy Ward

My guest this week, Tammy Ward shares her myronies about how she went from being a ballet dancer/teacher to then become a police officer only because she was told she would never pass the test. Tammy did not like being told she couldn’t do something so she simply proved she could and eventually ended up as Sergeant in her 25-year career. Tammy said her strengths to help control situations mentally and not physically ended up being her greatest gift which one unbelievable story she shares is how that helped her as she tells her story about an arrest that was not going well and includes the Hells Angels, so wait until you hear what happened!!Later after much tragic loss, Tammy finally left the police department and started her TLW Yoga Studio in 2016 where she likes to incorporate in some of her yoga sessions to also focus on mental wellness and trauma which Tammy likes to describe herself as not a survivor of her circumstances because that means she was once a victim and prefers to say she is thriving. She also connects to her spiritual side with her gifts of intuitiveness, reading people but also her unique connection to animals that literally makes her sound like a modern-day Snow White!!   So, if you want to shift your life from surviving to thriving you definitely want to connect with Tammy but not until after first listening to this incredible episode :)         About the Guest: Tammy Ward has been a Police Officer for 25 years achieving the rank of Sergeant. She has worked in a variety of roles specializing in Domestic Violence and Community Relations. She has been involved in dance and fitness since the age of 3, giving up teaching dance to become a Police Officer. Currently, Tammy owns TLW Yoga Studio returning to her true passion for movement and expression. She has seen and experienced the good and bad sides of Policing and being a woman in a traditionally male-dominated role. Following a tragic event at work and the deaths of fellow officers she took time to heal and created a safe space. This space became a yoga studio that opened in January 2016 with Tammy offering one class a week and has grown to 8 classes a week and leading yoga and wellness retreats around the world. In February 2020, Tammy retired from Policing and is focusing on the next chapter. This still includes helping others. Now she is enjoying the life of being a Yogi and Motivational Speaker. Sharing yoga, wellness, and her story. She says it has been a long and sometimes difficult path to where she is, and she is not done yet.www.tlwyoga.cawww.tammywardspeaks.comAbout the Host:Alysha Myronuk is the creator of the concept myrony (my+irony) which are the crazy coincidences that happen in life we can’t explain…it’s also another word for sign/synchronicity. Myrony is slightly different because it’s synchronicity in motion since it’s up to us to pay attention to the coincidences or signs but also “listen” to the intuitive pull we all get which Alysha believe is our greatest superpower! Alysha’s strong spiritual connection and tenacity is what helped her through some very dark days. However, it’s actually thanks to those days that allowed her to connect to her superpower that she calls her “Spiritual Spidey Sense”. She now shares her new concept hosting “That’s Myrony” Podcast along with her spiritual coaching business “My Myrony Mentoring” where she uses her psychic gift of “knowing” also known as claircognizance to help her clients through Intuitive “Soul Sessions” with her unique one of a kind modality, “The Myrony Method: A Key to Unlock Your Soul’s
