Michele Tamaren

Michele Tamaren is an author, presenter, spiritual director, and life coach. For thirty years she was a special educator teaching children with learning, physical, social and behavioral challenges. Her passion now, in both writing and presenting, is spirituality and healing lifelong. She is particularly committed to supporting caregivers, family and professional, who are holding the light for those who are ill or dying. Michele does so through the integration of personal storytelling and research: weaving mystery, humor, and practical support.

Michele is the co-founder and chair of the Multi-Religious Council for Spiritual Connection that invites those of every faith to gather in celebration of our shared humanity. In 2010 Michele was honored as a recipient of the Anti-Defamation League's Leonard P. Zakim Humanitarian Award for the promotion of interfaith harmony.
