Her Story

About Taru

I grew up in Scandinavia in a very difficult family situation. I was alone a lot during my childhood, and that drew me to animals and to the forest and to having my own company throughout my journey of life. That inner faith and confidence led me on all these crazy adventures. I went sailing around the world for 7 years. I've lived on all the continents except Australia and Antarctica. I've been all over the world, 70 countries. I've always worked with high-achieving women. I had all kinds of different jobs and I run my own businesses, fashion stores and online stores and all the things, but it was just always something within my soul that kept bringing me back to like, oh, there is something else here. Today I work with high-achieving women who are typically driven by the mind, by their internal high standards, perfectionism, and the need to meet external pressures. I guide them back to soul and help them start using their bodies, their hearts, their soul connection in how they're leading their businesses and in how they're leading themselves through their career journey. I work from home and have several calls during the day with private clients. I also run a community of women where I support them in this work as well. I start my morning very gently because that's part of how I embody my work and how I live this way that I teach. I have slow mornings, I spend time with my son, I go out with the dogs, I spend time in nature. What I help women do is showing by example what it looks like to create great success and also to live a life where you feel very satisfied internally and externally as well.

Her Interview

Ten minutes with Taru

01What do you attribute your success to?

I would say it is the thing that I've been relentless about healing myself and really digging deep into where did I get my patterns from, why was I acting like this, and really having a strong desire to transform for the better. Also my son, you know, wanting to be the best I can for him, especially as a single mother. You have a lot more responsibility, and so it kind of quickens your motivation. Like, you really need to get your shit together and work on yourself to be the best you can for your son, so that we're not repeating negative cycles and so that you can be a mother that he's going to be proud of. Those are the two things that are most important.

02What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?

Stick to one thing. You know, I'm a very multifaceted, multi-passionate woman, and so there were so many things that I could do and that I can do. I've built many different programs over the years, but really, stick to one thing until it becomes truly successful, and then you can move to the next thing. I think that has been something that took me a while to learn, but it's been very helpful.

03What advice would you give to young women entering your industry?

I would say that the most important aspect is lived experience. You can obviously combine that with certifications and all the different things, but I believe that it's easier to connect with a human being when you have personal experience, and you don't need to have exact experience as everybody else that you're going to serve, but at least that you've connected to your own humanity and you've processed the density that comes from your childhood programming. And that you are somebody that invests into yourself and your own growth, your own evolution. That's the most important part.

04What are the biggest challenges or opportunities in your field right now?

In my field, there are incredible opportunities in the way that we all need support. I believe that everybody needs some kind of therapy throughout life, some kind of support, coaching, mentorship. In my field, the opportunity is that unfortunately most of us were programmed in a way that is a little bit harmful to the soul, and so therefore a lot of people need this support, and so I'm happy to be in this field and to know that there are so many women that do need this help. The challenge would be that you need to show up, you need to be out there and market yourself in order to be visible, and so that would be the little challenge that I have, but I'm overcoming that now and pushing myself to get outside more.

05What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?

My values are integrity. Be in integrity with your word. Be somebody that relies on yourself, trusts yourself, and works on trusting yourself, because then other people can trust you as well. There is this through line of integrity through everything that you do, the way that you show up. It's one of my core values. Honesty, brutal honesty. This is something that I've had to work on not being too brutal in my honesty from my past. I believe it's important in order to really fully be able to transform and support. In the beginning when I was starting coaching as well, there's a little bit of people-pleasing tendencies, you don't want to step on toes, you don't want to be too much. And so I had to bring back my authentic self, who actually is very direct, and I noticed over the past many years that it is the most successful way of supporting somebody, is to obviously lead from heart but be able to transmit or share the truth about what's happening and how I can support and really share an authentic mirror to somebody in a way that it lands and is the most supportive for them.
