ABOUT TARA WEAR

For 30 years, I’ve helped leaders navigate high-stakes pressure—from ropes courses to corporate boardrooms. Partnering with national advisory firms like Contemporary Leadership Advisors (NYC) alongside regional anchors like Washington Trust Bank and Gonzaga University, I equip executives and teams to drop the chronic "brace" of over-functioning and restore human capacity.

When pressure mounts, high-achieving leaders don't quit—they harden. They lock their shoulders, restrict capacity, and power through. I call this "The Brace"—a biological lockdown disguised as high performance. While it helps you survive a crisis, chronic bracing costs health, peace of mind, and strategic clarity.

Today, I combine behavioral coaching with practical somatic tools to rewire how your nervous system responds to stress, helping leaders step out of reactive survival mode and regain the capacity to lead with strategic clarity and joy.

Testimonials

Tara has helped me open my heart to others and be a truer version of the person I aspire to be. Through her coaching I have become aware of and developed several tools to help me in business and everyday life. I used to feel depleted at the end of most days, taking on everyone’s grievances and now I’ve learned to recognize when an emotion or feeling is not mine to carry. I can be compassionate and have boundaries. I am so grateful.

- Penny C.

To anyone who thinks you don’t have time for professional coaching I would say this is the most important hour of my week right now—make time. You will learn so much about yourself and others, it’s truly enlightening and worth every minute. I prioritize my meetings with Tara over anyone else.

- Sara H.

I’ve shifted from being stressed out and depleted when other people are reactive/angry/triggered to being able to remain calm and clear about what’s mine and what’s theirs. It’s a huge weight lifted off of me and so awesome to have energy still at the end of the work day.

- Danielle P.

Tara is a gifted coach. She provides a trusted, open and encouraging space where I have been able to explore uncomfortable emotional areas, develop insights and find and use practical strategies for growth and renewal.

- Marlene W.

Tara saw my grief, and she saw my acceptance, and she leaned into both. Somehow, she finds the “little” things that are worth big celebration. She really does have an uncanny knack for that ☺️ She often highlights and celebrates pieces of me that I might not remember to appreciate which helps me love myself more wholly. That alone is a truly beautiful gift, and one of the things I love most about Tara's coaching. And it helps me see that who and where I am is exactly who and where I “should” be. I feel more closely aligned with my purpose. Thank you, thank you thank you. Forever appreciative, Tara.
