About Me
Hi, I’m Tammy - and I know what it means to start over.
Hi, I’m Tammy, the heart behind Palmtrees2Pinetrees. This space was born from my own journey of healing after years of carrying unseen wounds. For a long time, I lived in survival mode without knowing it—stressed, disconnected, and convinced that “change” was for other people, not me. On the outside, I looked like I had it together. On the inside, I felt lost and exhausted. I didn’t think I needed healing—I thought I just needed to “try harder.”
I am not a licensed therapist, psychologist, or any kind of medical professional. I am just a real person that really went through the traumas and came out the other end smiling. I grew up in Los Angeles, California in a dysfunctional family with narcissistic trauma abuse, codependency struggles, and went through a string of bad relationships that all included a drug addicted partner. I am a single mom of 2 kids, a caregiver, and an ADHD researcher that found all of these different methods from many different sources because there is no “one size fits all” treatment plan.
Healing doesn’t have to be overwhelming. Here, I blend practical tools, mindset rituals, and small daily practices that help you regulate your nervous system, break free from old cycles, and feel safe stepping into a new way of living. I believe in healing that feels gentle, real, and doable—especially for those of us who are skeptical or resistant to change, but secretly longing for more peace, joy, and freedom.
Through my digital resources, affiliate recommendations, and community content, my mission is to give you a toolkit for creating calm moments in your life like it did for mine—whether that’s through a Grounding Guide, a soothing playlist, or learning how to shift your mindset in a way that actually sticks. I'm here for it all.
💚 If you’ve ever felt resistant, stuck, or skeptical about healing, I see you. I’ve been there. And I want you to know: gentle change is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.
Guided by Healing
My Philosophy
Breathe First
Healing begins when we give ourselves permission to pause.
Grow Steady
Growth isn’t linear — and that’s okay. We bloom in layers.
Heal Forward
Healing isn’t about going back — it’s about moving forward with grace.
My Story
Why I Created This Space
I’ve walked through storms I didn’t think I’d survive — from toxic relationships and anxiety to deep-rooted trauma and grief. I had no idea none of it was normal until I received a gentle nudge myself.
