TEDx: My Journey of Recovery from Addiction

The truth about addiction and how to recover.

Addiction is not a dirty word and it affects all of us.

We are hard wired to become addicted to substances, emotions, hormones and thoughts in the name of survival and safety.

The problem is; there are multi-billion dollar industries that know this and we are purposefully tempted and enticed every single day in the name of marketing, power and profit.

I have an innovative, progressive and challenging view on addiction and it is my mission to change the conversation on this global pandemic.

I believe we have been focusing on the wrong thing all this time and until we start to think, act and see things from a very different perspective, addiction will keep most people enslaved to a system that pulls the strings to control our behaviour 

This TEDx Talk will challenge, inspire and teach you a whole new way to address addiction in your life and the lives of those around you.

Enjoy xx

Invite Tamala to Speak

at your live Event/Festival or
as a guest speaker in your online Program/Mastermind/Summit or Podcast

Imagine providing the understanding, education and tools to recover from all addictions for yourself and your participants. 

Addiction is the missing link in many coaching programs - strategy can only take your participants so far - if they are addicted to procrastination, fear, hiding and unworthiness (through their unhealed past trauma) - success is unlikely.

When you understand the true nature of addiction and begin to focus on healing it - for yourself and your clients - your business is going to sky-rocket!

Not just another Keynote Speaker

Imagine including an addictions module to your training/mastermind or having a guest or keynote speaker at your next event/festival on this fascinating topic - expanding your audience and drawing in larger crowds.

EVERYONE has an interest in addiction because it effects us all 

Make your program or event a stand out from the mainstream and invite Tamala to speak on this powerful topic.

Leigh Jane Woodgate   - Business Growth Advisor and Women’s Leadership Mentor

“We are either a fit to co-facilitate, or we are not. And when we are…magic happens.

There are not many women that I trust implicitly with my vulnerability, the “all” of me.

Tamala is one of those women. She helped me to overcome my 24 year addiction to nicotine with dignity, love and messy grace. She fine-tuned my ability to hold space. She allowed me to support her to grow her soul-led business. She became a friend. And when the moment came to welcome her into my deeply intimate private client spaces to share her medicine on addiction, I felt deep trust…knowing that she would show up with integrity, mastery, and the utmost of love and respect. That she did, over and over and over again.

For me, when it comes to inviting external facilitators into my client spaces that I nurture and cultivate with utmost regard, devotion, and commitment to the highest level of service, excellence, wisdom, love and care, that such external facilitators are aligned with my Brand DNA; my values, principles, mission, purpose, vision, virtues and essence. I am deeply grateful that Tamala and I are.

Thank you for sharing your expertise with the communities that I dedicate myself to. And for welcoming me into the communities that you dedicate yourself to, to do the same. ”

“Tamala Ridge is a pioneer at the intersection of addiction and spirituality.

I’ve invited her to be an expert presenter in my groups and courses many times, as the audience always loves her uniquely life-changing approach to breaking free from addictions of all kinds, and her deeply integrous approach to spirituality.

Her presentations are so well received and so informative that my students continue to refer back to them years later. She is wise and kind, compassionate, and deeply practical.

When Tamala runs a workshop, class or presentation of any kind, you are always taken on a masterful journey with her to open your mind to a new way of viewing the world. Your current understanding and beliefs will be challenged and stretched so that you find a deeper meaning in your own life. She will leave you with tools to keep growing and expanding in your truth and healing

I highly recommend her as a speaker. Your audience will LOVE this woman, AND learn so much!”
