Do you find yourself in similar situations with different people? Are you wondering why you are having challenges navigating conflict with friends but are pretty successful with navigating conflict at work? Are your boundaries respected in your romantic relationships but fall apart with your family? And attachment styles... whew?! Let's unpack some things together. I am looking forward to exploring tips and resources that help us challenge existing relationship cycles, break patterns that are no longer serving us, and continue our healing journey.

She is the heart behind the Rushing to Adulthood brand, a space where she explores identity, purpose, and the lessons we learn while growing into ourselves; offering a reminder that we’re all works in progress, navigating love, career, and community one chapter at a time. ❤️‍🩹 Tamera Jones: licensed professional counselor, passionate about helping people heal from traumatic relationships, and founder of Fine Tuned Connections. She helps individuals, couples, and families struggling with relational issues through identifying barriers or emotional triggers and empowers individuals to reduce them to enjoy healthier relationships and family dynamics.
