The Storyteller's Truth w/ Tamra Simmons

Tamra Simmons was gathering eggs and water from the well in a small community at the age of 6 and is now an internationally acclaimed executive producer, winner of the Peabody, and a lifetime achievement award. She is a storyteller that listens with her heart, and builds not only connections, but a rapport of protection and guidance for those that she creates those bonds with. It's not just about the story, it's about listening and caring for those that have a story to tell. That's Tamra.Tamra set out to create a "simple" 2 hour documentary that would become a 3 part series, a federal case, a multi-charge indictment called 'Surviving R. Kelly'. The amount of women coming forward to share their experience kept coming as more women gathered in Tamra's community leading to the 3 part - and now we know, a case study to build the federal case. Tamra and Amy talk about following their soul and their spirit which leads to everlasting glimmers through the pain of "humaning" - that is, we call in what our soul desires. Tamra shares how she loves reading case studies for the Harvard Business Review, only for her documentary to become one. Huzzah! That's the magic - and - as you will hear, it came with a lot of physical, emotional, and mental hurdles.What's next for Tamra? Who knows! But it will be soul-led, and it will be magical and divine.Follow Tamra's work on Instagram, @thetamrasimmons and @livealwaysproductions.Thank you for tuning in to Women Making Moves, please be sure to follow and rate the show on your favorite podcast platform and follow along on Bluesky.
