I Am Lotus: A story of resilience

Life is meant to be embraced fully—through its challenges, joys, and everything in between. In I AM LOTUS, Tamara O’Shaughnessy invites us into an intimate conversation about resilience, transformation, and living with purpose.

With the warmth of a trusted friend, Tamara shares insights from her life’s journey, weaving together personal stories, hard-earned wisdom, and mindset tools to inspire growth, self-discovery, and empowerment. As a retired oncology nurse who has spent time with those facing the end of life, as well as through her own deeply personal losses, she has learned invaluable lessons about what truly matters. But rather than focusing on loss, I AM LOTUS is about choosing to rise, to find meaning in every moment, and to create a life filled with strength, joy, and authenticity.

Through heartfelt storytelling, humor, and deep reflection, Tamara guides readers through embracing change, overcoming limiting beliefs, and recognizing the beauty in life’s imperfections. She reminds us that, just like the lotus, we can bloom beautifully even from the murkiest waters.

This book is for anyone ready to step into their power, redefine what’s possible, and approach life with open arms. Whether you’re navigating change, seeking inspiration, or simply wanting to live more fully, I AM LOTUS will speak to your soul. If you’re ready to rise, this book will show you the way.
