Exploring Life & Business with Tamra Simmons of Live Always Productions

Today we’d like to introduce you to Tamra Simmons

Hi Tamra, so excited to have you with us today. What can you tell us about your story?
My journey began with a deep passion for storytelling and connecting with people. I’ve always been fascinated by how stories can inspire, empower, and bring about change. Early on, I dove into the world of marketing and branding, working tirelessly to build my skills and network. Along the way, I recognized my talent for identifying unique narratives and turning them into impactful campaigns and projects.

Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
The road has been far from smooth, but I truly believe that every challenge has shaped me into the person I am today. Early on, one of my biggest struggles was navigating the industry and earning respect in a space that can be competitive and sometimes overwhelming. Breaking through barriers, especially as a woman, required relentless determination and a thick skin.

There were moments when I questioned whether I was on the right path, particularly when resources were limited, or opportunities seemed out of reach. Balancing personal and professional responsibilities was another challenge—juggling growth with maintaining relationships and self-care.

Additionally, learning how to trust the process and adapt to unexpected setbacks taught me resilience. Every ‘no’ became a stepping stone to a better ‘yes,’ and every failure pushed me to think creatively and keep moving forward.

Those struggles, while tough in the moment, fueled my growth and gave me the grit to persevere. Today, I embrace challenges as opportunities to learn, evolve, and become even stronger.

How do you think about happiness?
For me, happiness comes from the simple, meaningful moments—especially spending time with my family. They’re my foundation, my inspiration, and my greatest source of joy. Whether it’s sharing laughter over a meal, celebrating milestones, or just being present with each other, those moments fuel my spirit and remind me of what truly matters. Family keeps me grounded and gives me the motivation to keep pushing forward in everything I do.
