‘There are things that I was not ready to deal with. These are things I was definitely acting out on in my life. I can say proudly that I was a different person from last year to this year. Although it has been a short period of time and still have a lot of work ahead of me, there’s a lot of work I have done that’s behind me. Before, I’d keep going because I did not want to disappoint people and I did not want people to go, ‘She’s being difficult. I always felt over committed and never committed to myself. When I wasn’t feeling great, I still did it.’
However, nowadays, things really have to mean something to Tamar and she is able to forgive herself for all the guilt that others had put on her.
