Welcome!
I am Tammi Salas—a sober, dignified, creative, woman.
My last drink was on Groundhog Day 2015. I’m approaching 10 years of continuous sobriety this year.
After 20+ years in a small coastal town in Northern California (population 950), I have relocated to Oakland, CA + live with my fella (and resident chef). I have a home studio + love being part of this community.
I am a member of Moonflower Studio, a vibrant artist co-op made up of nine incredible female artists in Berkeley, CA.
I went back to college at age 44 and declared art as my major.
I am a certified Gray Area Drinking Coach.
I am a certified Art 4 Healing Facilitator.
I founded the Ray of Light Community in 2021.
In December 2023, I joined forces with Corinne Bowen + now we both co-lead the Ray of Light Community together. Best decision!
I create art every day and credit this practice as the path to my spiritual overhaul + re-awakening.
I am an empty nester. My son is a senior in college + a talented artist and surfer.
I was co-host of The Unruffled Podcast, a weekly podcast that talks about the intersection between creativity and recovery. It has over 1 million downloads. Feel free to listen!
My offerings:
I hold space for women who have creative longings in my Ray of Light membership community—we are seekers and dreamers, mid-lifers going through the thick of things (together).
I teach online courses for women.
I lead weekly recovery meetings over at The Luckiest Club.
I work with women one-on-one through my coaching practice to help them embrace creativity. I will be re-opening my calendar for one-on-one work on April 1, 2025.
Thanks for stopping by. I’m so glad you’re here.
“CURIOSITY is my compass.”
